The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at the next couple of weeks on Tiree. The Maze is the only spot worth talking about, and honestly, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much to start, so don’t get your hopes up too early.
The first real flicker of life comes on Sunday, 2nd August. The morning is still a bit groggy with a light onshore wind, but the afternoon cleans right up. We’re looking at a tiny 3ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The wind drops to nothing – glassy conditions – and the combined energy is a weak 85. It’s surfable, but only just. Think of it as a chance to get the sled wet more than a proper session.
Things stay small and quiet right through the first week. The best of a very ordinary bunch is Monday, 3rd August afternoon, with a 2ft SW swell and a clean, cross-off breeze. The energy is a paltry 53. Not much to write home about. Then we hit a real dry spell. From the 4th of August right through to the 9th, it’s mostly flat or tiny, choppy junk. There’s a small window on Sunday, 9th August with a glassy 2ft WNW swell in the morning, but again, tiny.
Now, here’s the standout. Keep your eyes on Monday, 10th August. The afternoon session looks like the one. The swell is building to 4ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The wind swings offshore from the ESE at 12 mph, and the combined energy jumps to a solid 204 – that’s moderate, but meaningful. The conditions are clean and the wave state is “moderate offshore and clean.” This is the best on offer in the whole run. Get on it.
After that, it gets messy again. The morning of Tuesday, 11th August sees a bigger 5ft swell, but the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-off from the SSE, which makes for poor conditions. Then it’s back to small, onshore junk for the rest of the second week. The Saturday, 15th August brings a 5ft W swell, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy.
So, the call is this: wait for that Monday the 10th afternoon. That’s your window. The rest is a whole lot of waiting.
Rusty.
