Alright folks, Rusty here again, and we’re looking at Sebastian Inlet-Third Peak. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – the next couple weeks are mostly flat and weak. This is a beach/jetty spot that needs some east energy, and we just aren’t getting it. Water temp is 83°, which is normal for this time of year, nothing unusual.
Starting Sunday July 5th, we’ve got a 1ft wave from the east with a short 8-second interval. The energy is weak at (16). Morning is glassy, which is nice to look at, but there’s nothing to ride. That same tiny stuff hangs around through Monday and Tuesday with light offshore winds, keeping it clean but basically flat.
Wednesday July 8th afternoon brings a little hope – the period stretches to 10 seconds and the energy climbs to (50), but we’re still only looking at about 1ft. A bit more push, but still tiny.
The only real chance for anything decent lands on Thursday July 9th morning. That’s the best we’ve got. Swell bumps to 2ft from the east at 9 seconds, combined energy at (51) – still weak, but it’s the peak of the whole 16 days. Wind is light cross-offshore out of the south at 3 mph, keeping it clean. It’s surfable – waist-high at best for intermediates. Not a standout, just the least bad day.
From July 10th right through to July 20th, it’s all the same: 1ft to 1ft east slop, short periods, and afternoons get choppy with cross-shore winds at 12 mph plus. Energy drops below (40) most days. No proper waves, no real recommendations.
So if you’re desperate, Thursday July 9th morning is your clean but tiny window. Otherwise, this stretch looks better for a kayak than a surfboard. Honestly, it’s a tough run.
Rusty.
