The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s going on in the water.
First thing: it’s a dry spell for a while. The first real chance to surf doesn’t pop up until Monday, August 3rd. That’s almost a week from now. From Monday, July 27th through Sunday, August 2nd, it’s all poor conditions – tiny, short-period windswell (6-8 seconds), lumpy cross-shore chop, and just flat-out not worth the effort. Lots of weak, crumbly lines that’ll close out. Not a wave worth paddling for.
On Monday, August 3rd, we get a little pulse. Spew Pits, an expert reef break, sees a 3ft north swell with a 9-second period. The combined energy is moderate (221-244), and the morning is clean with a cross-offshore breeze. It’s still only marginal, but it’s the first sign of life after a long, flat week.
Tuesday, August 4th morning bumps up a notch: a 4ft north swell, period down to 7 seconds, but energy climbs to 351. Wind is clean out of the NE. Could be a decent little window for the experts, especially with crowds only *sometimes* a problem on a weekday.
The big one to watch is Sunday, August 9th. This is the standout. Swell size pushes up to 6ft-7ft from the north, 8-second period, and the combined energy jumps into the strong zone (492-547). That’s serious power. At this size, Spew Pits is strictly for experienced surfers – this is a heavy reef. But the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNE all day, so the faces will be smooth and the barrels could be legit. This is the best shot in the whole 16-day window. It’s a week and a half out, so stay tuned, but if it locks in, it’ll be a proper session.
Monday, August 10th keeps the size (6ft-6ft, north swell) but the wind cranks to 25 mph. The energy is still strong (498-574), but that much wind makes the paddle-out a fight and the surface gets bumpy. Hardcore only.
So, here’s the take: endure the first week of nothing, then you’ve got a few marginal days, and one clear standout on August 9th. That’s the day to save your energy for.
