Table - best surf conditions forecast for Sebastian Inlet-Third Peak over the next 16 days.
Right then, let’s have a look what we’ve got for Sebastian Inlet-Third Peak over the next couple of weeks. I won’t lie to you, it’s a pretty bleak stretch. The combined swell energy is stuck in the weak range, almost always below 50 (20), and the swell is tiny. This is one of those periods where you’re better off leaving the board in the car.
The water temperature here is sitting at 84°, which is just about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
We start off on Friday, 10th July, and it’s a no-go. Tiny 1.0ft easterly swell with a short 8-second period, and a moderate cross-shore breeze. That theme just keeps going. Saturday and Sunday are the same story—poor surf and light, onshore or cross conditions. You might see a window on Sunday morning, 12th July, because the wind swings offshore from the SW with a light breeze, keeping it clean, but there’s barely a ripple with that 1.0ft swell (14).
The first real hint of something decent doesn't show up until Monday morning, 13th July. The wind goes glassy, and while the swell is still only 1.0ft (12), it’s clean. That’s about the best you’ll get for the first week. Tuesday morning, 14th July, and Wednesday morning, 15th July, also offer glassy conditions, but the swell is still flat.
There’s a 12-day gap until we see anything that might be worth a paddle. On Saturday morning, 25th July, the swell finally bumps up to 3ft from the ESE, with a period of just 5 seconds. The wind is light and cross-offshore, keeping it clean (48). It’s only surfable, not good, but it’s the only window in the entire outlook that scores a 1. The afternoon gets ruined by a moderate cross-shore.
Honestly, there’s no standout here. The whole 16-day run is a write-off. For a break that’s consistently exposed to the NE, we just aren't getting any energy. With these small, weak, short-period swells and mixed wind, it’s hard to get excited. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on the afternoons with a bit of breeze.
Stay patient and keep an eye on the charts.
