Alright, this is Rusty. Let's talk about Silva Island-P Land, a reef setup that’s wide open to the southwest swell.
The water temp is about where it should be for this time of year, nothing unusual. This spot is a very consistent, advanced reef break. Over the next 16 days, the real standout window is the first part of the week. Wednesday morning, July 8, is the one. We’ve got a SSW groundswell running at 3ft with a very long period of 16 seconds. That long period gives the waves shape and punch, and the combined energy is moderate at 412. But the game-changer is the wind – it’s glassy, flat calm from the SW at 3 mph. That means clean, peeling reef waves. Crowds can be a thing here sometimes, but for a morning like that, you deal with it.
Wednesday afternoon, July 8, the wind goes cross-onshore from the west at 6 mph, and the surface gets bumpy. Energy drops to 402. Not the session.
Thursday morning, July 9, is another good one. Swell is a touch smaller at 3ft, still a very long 15-second period from the SSW, with energy at 277. Glassy calm again. Clean surf. By Thursday afternoon, a cross-shore wind at 6 mph from the WSW makes it rough.
Friday, July 10, the swell drops to 2ft. The morning is glassy but energy is low at 162. The afternoon bumps up to 223 with glassy wind at 3 mph – it’s the better part of the day, but the waves are small.
Saturday morning, July 11, is the last real highlight. Swell is 2ft, 16-second period, 233 energy, and dead calm. Another glassy, clean morning on the reef.
From Sunday, July 12, onward, the swell fades and stays below 2ft. Energy mostly sits in the weak to low-moderate range (88 to 178). There are glassy mornings here and there, but the waves are small and the quality is ordinary. No power behind them. The afternoons often get a light cross or cross-onshore breeze, making it even less interesting. It’s not a total flat spell, but there’s nothing to shout about.
So, get on it early next week. Wednesday morning, July 8, and Saturday morning, July 11, are your top picks. Thursday morning, July 9, is also solid. The afternoons are a write-off.
Rusty.
