Siriu Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Siriu over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, the first few days are a bit of a write-off. Tuesday and Wednesday are pretty average, with weak little 2ft to 2ft swells and wonky winds. Just not worth paddling out for. Thursday morning the 30th of July gets a little glassy with a tiny 2ft south-southeast swell, but the energy is low (104). It’s surfable but really nothing to get excited about.

Friday and Saturday slide back into poor conditions with fresh cross-breezes and messy, lumpy lines. The swell does bump up a touch on Saturday the 1st of August to 4ft and 5ft, but the wind is still bad and the period is short at 7 seconds. It’s messy out there. Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd bring cleaner windows with glassy and cross-off winds, but the swell is small and weak, still under 3ft. Just ordinary conditions, nothing special.

Then things start to shift. On Tuesday the 4th of August, the energy jumps up nicely to 308 in the morning with a 3ft southeast-southeast swell at 11 seconds and glassy conditions. It’s a solid step up and the first real sign of life. Wednesday the 5th is a standout in the first week: morning has a clean, glassy 6ft south swell at 9 seconds, and the combined energy is a meaty 838. That’s proper surf and the outlook reads “very good.” Thursday the 6th keeps the good vibes with a 4ft south-southeast swell and glassy conditions in the morning.

The real fireworks show up from the 9th through the 12th. Sunday the 9th of August sees the swell building again, with afternoon clean 4ft south swell at 11 seconds and solid energy of 411. Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th are where it gets serious. The morning of the 10th offers a clean 4ft south swell with 611 energy, and by the afternoon it jumps to 6ft and a massive 913 energy with clean cross-off wind. That’s a full-on session. Tuesday the 11th is excellent for experienced surfers: clean 5ft swell from the south-southeast, a long period of 14 seconds, and energy over 1200 in the morning. That’s groundswell. It’s going to have real push, proper lines, and long waits between sets. At this size, it’s best left to the crew who know what they’re doing.

Wednesday the 12th of August tops it all off. Morning is glassy with a 6ft south-southeast swell at 14 seconds and combined energy of 1347. That is excellent, clean, powerful surf. The swell direction (south-southeast) is a great match for Siriu’s open-exposed setup.

Water temp is sitting at 66°F, right on the money for this time of year, so no surprises there.

For the standout, I’m calling Wednesday the 12th of August, morning session. The swell is 6ft, south-southeast direction, period at a long 14 seconds, and glassy winds. The energy is massive at 1347. This is the one to circle on the calendar. It’s a powerful groundswell, so it will love the open beach setup here. It’s going to be clean, strong, and lined up. Just know that with a long period swell, the sets will be wide and you might have some time between them, but the trade-off is worth it.

Keep it locked, but don’t sleep on Tuesday the 11th either – that’s nearly as good.

Rusty.
