The Lowdown
Hey, it's Rusty. Look, I'm not gonna sugar-coat it: the outlook for Silva Island-P Land over the next couple of weeks is pretty flat. We're not looking at any major swell events, just some small, clean windows if you're desperate for a paddle.
The water is running unusually warm, about 4°F above the norm for this time of year, so you can probably leave the thick rubber at home.
The best bet, the one session that stands out, is Friday morning, August 14. There's a 2ft SSW groundswell with a very long 19-second period. The wave energy is moderate, and the wind is dead calm, giving us glassy conditions. The long period will mean really smooth, lined-up waves on that reef, but expect long waits between sets.
Saturday morning, August 15 is another solid option. A 2ft SW swell with a 16-second period, again glassy. Slightly more energy in the water. Still small and clean.
The rest of the run is a lot of nothing. After Saturday, the winds turn onshore or cross-shore, and the swell drops off hard. From Sunday August 16 all the way through to the end of the period on August 27, the waves average just 1 to 2 feet, with most energy reading well under 100. There are a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Wednesday August 19 and Thursday August 27, but the swell is just too weak to call it a surf. It's a long, flat spell.
So, make the call for Friday August 14 morning. The reef will handle that long-period groundswell well, and the glass-off is a major plus. Don't expect it to be pumping, but it'll be the cleanest of the bunch.
Rusty.
