The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for The Maze over the next couple of weeks.

To be straight with you, this 16-day run is a tough one for The Maze. You’ll want to put the board away for a while because the surf is basically absent for the entire first half of July and August. For over a week, from Thursday the 30th of July right through until Tuesday the 4th of August, there’s just nothing worth paddling for. We start off with a lumpy 6 ft on Thursday afternoon from the WNW but it’s all shored up by a 30 km/h onshore breeze—that’s a messy, blown-out mess, not surfable. The water temp is about 58°, pretty normal for the time of year here.

The only real glimmer in the whole outlook shows up on Monday afternoon the 3rd of August. It’s tiny, just 2 ft from the SW, but at least the wind goes light cross-off and for a moment you’ve got a clean little ripple on the surface. The energy’s weak, and the waves won’t win any awards, but if you’re absolutely desperate it’s the one session where you could manage a few knee-high dribblers without getting blown off the face. Still, it’s very ordinary.

After that, the well dries up completely. From Tuesday the 4th of August right through to the end of the period on Friday the 14th of August, it’s flat city. The swell barely reaches 1 ft, periods are all over the shop, and the combined wave energy flirts with single digits. Even with clean conditions here and there, there’s simply nothing for a surfer. A few days see cross-off or even offshore wind, but when the swell is 0.7 ft it doesn’t matter.

Bottom line: The Maze is going through a proper flat spell. No standouts, no highlights for surfers. You’d be better off picking up a kite if the wind ever blows right, but for paddle surfing, this is a blank.

Rusty.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for The Maze (Tiree) may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
