The Lowdown

Right then, let's have a look at what's on the cards. First up, the water temp is sittin' at 59°F – that's about average for the time of year, so no nasty surprises there.

Lookin' at The Maze on Tiree. It's not gonna be a complete write-off, but honest to god, it's a bit of a slog to find a decent window. We've got a bit of a wait on our hands.

Wednesday the 19th of August shows a bit of life – a 6ft swell from the west with a 10-second period, givin' us moderate wave energy (702). But the wind is a cross-shore, so it'll be a bit bumpy and messy. It's there, but it's not gonna be the clean session you're dreamin' of.

Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st? Absolute no-go. Strong winds from the north and a short-period windswell have turned it into a choppy, lumpy mess. The wave energy drops right off too – 337 and then just 60 by Friday.

We get a bit of a lull through the weekend into Monday the 24th. That's when things start to look a little more promising. The mornin' has a 5ft west-northwest swell, a nice 11-second groundswell period givin' us a solid (569) energy reading. Better yet, the wind is cross-offshore, which should keep things clean. That Monday afternoon is also a contender with similar conditions. That's probably your best bet in the whole 16 days. The Maze can get busy when it's good, so expect some company.

Then we get a few more okay slots around the 25th, with a 4ft west-southwest swell and light offshore winds on the Tuesday afternoon. But after that, it's back to onshore winds and junk for days. We get a bit of size again on the 31st of August – a 5ft westerly – but it's cross-onshore and choppy, so the quality won't be there.

Honestly, for this stretch, focus on Monday the 24th. That's the standout. The rest is a case of pickin' through the scraps.

Rusty.
