Siriu Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the surf for the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow start, but there’s some real potential brewing if you’re willing to wait for it.

The first real action that’s worth paddling out for kicks off on Saturday morning, July 4th. We’ve got a solid 6.6ft swell rolling in from the S at Siriu, with a period of 12 seconds. That’s a nice, long groundswell, which means it’s got some real punch and shape. The combined energy of all swells is a strong 1186. The wind is a light cross-off from the SW at 6 mph, and the water is feeling much colder than normal for this time of year, sitting at 61.3°.

This is a beginner-friendly break, but with a 6.6ft swell, it’s getting a bit too big for total beginners. The way the wind is setting up, it’s going to be clean and lined up. That’s a great window for a more experienced surfer who wants some open faces. The wind stays manageable through the afternoon, too, but it goes cross, so the morning is the real call.

Sunday morning, the 5th, is a glassy dream. The swell drops a touch to 6.2ft still from the SSE, but with a NW wind of just 3 mph, it’s going to be a mirror. It’s a short window, but if you can get out there early, you’ll be rewarded with some of the cleanest lines of the week.

After that, things get a bit messy and smaller for a stretch. The middle of the week (Monday through to the following weekend) is a bit of a write-off, with the swell dropping under 3.3ft and wind messing it up. You’ll be looking at a few days of small, ordinary conditions.

The next real standout shows up on the morning of Tuesday, July 14th. That’s a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it. We’re looking at a 5.2ft S swell with a 12-second period, and the wind is a light cross-off from the SSW at 6 mph. The combined energy is a solid 719, and it’s going to be clean. That’s a proper return to form for a morning session.

The real highlight, though, is the end of the run. The morning of Sunday, July 19th, is looking like a beast. The forecast has a 8.2ft NE swell, but with a short period of 8 seconds. The wind is dead calm, glassy, zero. The combined energy is a massive 1363. This is a big, powerful, and clean swell. At 8.2ft, this is for experts only. It’s a bit of a short period, so it might be a bit punchy and close out on a beach break, but if the banks are right, there will be some heavy, clean barrels. That’s the one to circle on the calendar if you’ve got the skills.

So, to sum it up: the best of the best is that glassy Sunday morning on the 19th for the big, powerful swell, with the Saturday morning on the 4th and the Tuesday morning on the 14th as your next best windows for clean, solid surf.

Stay stoked, and I’ll see you in the water.
