Siriu Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s have a proper look, folks. Rusty here.

First up, the next few days aren't offering much for Siriu. The waiting game starts now. The first half of the week sees small, short-period wind swell mostly getting chopped up by cross-shore winds. Not a time to get excited.

The real window opens on Thursday the 23rd of July. The morning brings a solid 7ft swell out of the south, packing a serious punch with a combined swell energy of 1209 – that’s strong stuff. The wind stays light cross-offshore, keeping the surface clean. The period is only 9 seconds, so it’s a mix of ground and wind swell, but at that size you want to be experienced – it’s pushing into expert territory. Afternoon keeps that 7ft south swell humming with 1244 energy, again clean.

Now, the standout? You wanna circle Sunday morning the 27th of July. This is where it comes together. We’ve got a solid 6ft ground swell from the east-southeast, running at 10 seconds. That’s proper period and it’s wrapping in clean. The combined energy is 601 – moderate power, but the wind is just glass. Offshore from the northwest. Dead calm. That’s the one you wait for. The sets will have some push and the lines will hold up. This is the best on offer, no question.

Friday the 24th also deserves a nod. The morning session has 5ft from the southeast with 9-second period and glassy conditions under a light southeast breeze. Clean, manageable, and 461 combined energy. A very good morning for a board.

After the 27th, the quality drops fast. Tuesday the 28th sees the swell drop to 5ft, the period stretches to 11 seconds, but the cross-shore winds from the north-northeast at 16-19 mph make it a mess. Wednesday and Thursday are smaller and onshore or cross-shore. That 2ft to 3ft stuff is barely worth paddling for.

The long-range window on Tuesday morning the 4th of August shows a 2ft, 12-second ground swell from the east – glassy and clean with a light cross-offshore. It’s tiny, but the period is long. A longboard option for the patient few. But the run from the 28th of July right through to the 4th of August is mostly a blank stretch with only that one small highlight.

Summing it up: the first half of the week is a write-off. Thursday the 23rd is big and clean for the crew that can handle it. Friday morning the 24th is solid. But the Sunday morning the 27th is your gold – glassy, chest-to-head-high, with proper east-southeast groundswell. That’s the one to set your alarm for.

Rusty.
