The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here.
Gonna be straight with you – the next couple of weeks around Silva Island-P Land are looking quiet. We’re stuck in a real flat spell for the next week. The main event doesn’t really kick off until Saturday, August 8th, so if you’re itching for a wave, you’ll be waiting.
Let’s run through it. From Thursday, July 30th right through to Friday, August 7th, it’s seriously small. We’re talking knee-high dribble and swells barely cracking 1ft to 2ft. The wave energy is weak (mostly reading in the 50s to low 200s) and honestly, it’s just not worth paddling out for. There are a few glassy mornings in there, especially Friday, July 31st, and Saturday, August 1st, but the swell is just too weak to care about. Conditions like this are more about fixing a leaky wetsuit than catching a decent wave.
The one standout in this whole outlook is Saturday, August 8th. That morning, we get a bit of life. Clean, glassy conditions with a calm wind and a clean 2ft SSW groundswell pushing in. The period gets up to 16 seconds, so there’s some proper energy behind it (energy reading a solid 208). That’s groundswell, so expect longer waits between sets, but the shape should be clean. Because it’s a reef break, it’ll handle that long period well. It’s a bit small for the advanced crew, but for the average punter and even a beginner who can handle a reef, that’s the session to chase. The crowd factor here is “sometimes,” so you might have a few mates out, but nothing out of control.
Saturday afternoon gets a bit of a cross breeze and the swell drops a touch, so stick to the morning. The outlook after that still looks small and pretty average right through to Friday, August 14th, but that Saturday morning session is the one that’s got my attention.
Overall, it’s a long, slow wait, but if you’ve got patience, that Saturday, August 8th dawn patrol at Silva Island-P Land (P-Land) is where the hope is at. The water is running about 86°F—a couple of degrees warmer than usual for this time of year, so it’s pretty pleasant.
Rusty.
