Tivives Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for Tivives. This stretch has some potential, but it’s a game of patience.

The week kicks off with a really promising start. Monday the 27th, we’ve got a beautiful morning – clear skies, a glassy 3 mph wind, and a clean 3 ft SSW groundswell. The period is a juicy 19 seconds, that’s a long-period groundswell, so the waves will have real shape and energy. The combined energy is a solid 729, which is moderate but packing a punch for the size. For a spot like Tivives, which is fairly exposed to the SW, this is about as good as it gets. Water temp is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The only downside? It’s inconsistent, so you might wait a bit between sets, but when they come, they’ll be worth it. This is your standout. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might have company.

The afternoons are pretty much a write-off for the whole first week, with a cross-on wind and risk of thunderstorms. Tuesday the 28th morning is another beauty – flat calm, 0 mph wind, and a 3 ft SSW swell at 18 seconds. That’s glassy perfection. Wednesday the 29th morning is similar, still glassy but the swell period is dropping to 16 seconds. The energy is backing off a bit, down to 426 for Wednesday morning. Still fun, just not as punchy.

From Thursday the 30th onward, the swell drops gradually. By Friday the 31st, we’re looking at 2 ft and the energy is only 190. The glassy mornings are still there, but the waves are getting smaller and weaker. The weekend of the 1st and 2nd of August is pretty flat, with a messy wind and a short period of 7 seconds. That’s just not going to cut it.

There’s a bit of a gap in quality here. The next real glimmer of hope comes on Monday the 11th of August. That’s a long way out, but it’s worth noting. The morning shows a 2 ft S swell, but the period is back up to 16 seconds, and the energy is 392. It’s glassy, it’s clean, and it’s a solid groundswell. It’s a promising long-range call, but treat it as a maybe.

Overall, the first three mornings – Monday 27th, Tuesday 28th, and Wednesday 29th – are your best bets. The swell is small but clean, and the winds are perfect. The standout is easily Monday the 27th morning. After that, the afternoons are trash, and the mornings get smaller and weaker. The second week looks quiet, with the next hint of something decent on the 11th of August.

Stay patient, and get on it early.

Rusty.
