The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Sebastian Inlet-First Peak.
To be straight with you, this stretch of the next sixteen days is looking pretty flat and frustrating. There’s nothing on the cards that I’d call a proper surf session. You’ll see waves, sure, but they’re tiny and the quality is just not there. We’re talking a long run of small, weak energy, never really breaking out of that poor surf zone. The swell is mostly out of the east, and it’s just not packing any punch. For the first week or so, it’s all cross-on or onshore wind, which kills any chance of a clean face. A small window of glassy conditions pops up on the morning of the 5th, but with swell at only 1ft from the east and a period of 8 seconds, it’s barely a ripple. The combined energy is just 13.
There’s a slight bump in size around the 8th and 9th, with swell pushing up to 3ft from the northeast on the afternoon of the 8th. The combined energy hits 97 then, which is something, but it’s a short-period wind swell at 7 seconds and the wind is howling onshore. That’s messy, not inviting. The rest of the second week just fades back into tiny, weak surf with onshore winds and a lot of storm risk.
Honestly, there isn’t a single standout session in the whole outlook. For a spot that’s usually pretty reliable, this is a tough run.
Rusty.
