Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ramsgate (The Wall) over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s break it down. This is Ramsgate (The Wall), and it’s a rough ride ahead. For the first part of the 16-day window, up until Friday the 17th of July, there’s basically nothing. The swell energy is zero (0), and the conditions are just poor. The wind is mostly cross or cross-off, but without any swell, it’s a no-go.
The first real chance comes Friday afternoon the 17th. We’re looking at a tiny 1 ft swell from the SSW, with a short period of 3 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 4, so it’s barely a pulse. The wind is cross-off from the WNW at 15 mph, so it’s clean, but this is more of a paddle than a surf.
Saturday the 18th morning is slightly better, with the same 1 ft from the SSW but a period of 5 seconds, giving it a bit more shape. The wind is a clean offshore from the NNW at 15 mph, and the energy is still low (7). It’s the best of the bunch if you’re really keen.
The water temperature is 19°C, which is about 67°F, and it’s a massive 4° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual—the water feels like a warm bath.
After that, it’s flat again. Sunday the 19th has a 0.3 ft swell, and the wind is fresh offshore, but it’s basically nothing. There’s a tiny uptick on Monday the 20th afternoon with a 2 ft swell from the SSW, but it’s a short 4-second period and the wind is light cross, so it’s lumpy. The energy is still only 14.
The rest of the run is a mess of tiny swells, poor wind directions, and very low energy. Nothing gets above 3 ft, and that’s on Friday the 24th afternoon, but it’s a messy 3 ft from the SSW with a 4-second period and strong cross-shore wind from the WSW at 25 mph. The combined energy is 29, but it’s all chop and no shape. That’s a kite-surfing setup, not a surf one.
The only standout, if you can call it that, is Saturday the 18th morning. It’s got the best wind (offshore) and the most consistent 1 ft swell with a 5-second period. It’s not going to get you barreled, but it’s clean and it’s the best on offer. The Wall is a sheltered breakwater spot, and it’s inconsistent, so this kind of blank run isn’t totally unusual. The crowds are always there, but with this lack of swell, you’ll have it to yourself.
