Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this forecast for Ramsgate (The Wall) is a tough one.
Overall, we’re looking at a long, dry stretch with barely anything to get excited about. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until the afternoon of Saturday the 5th of July, and even then, it’s tiny. Before that, from Friday the 3rd through to Sunday morning the 5th, it’s pretty much flat or tiny slop with onshore or cross-shore wind. You’d be wasting your time.
Saturday the 5th, afternoon: The wind goes glassy, which is a beautiful thing, and there’s a tiny 1ft swell from the SW. You’re looking at a combined wave energy of just 6 – that’s barely a ripple. It’s a breakwater, so it can pick up a little something, but this is strictly for the log or the learner if you just want to get wet. The water temperature is sitting at 66°, which is 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual, so at least you won’t need a thick suit.
There’s a little pulse on the afternoon of Sunday the 6th of July. The swell bumps up to 2ft from the SSW, period around 5 seconds – short-period, weak stuff. Wind is light and cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit messy but rideable on a foamy. Energy is still low at 19.
Then it’s back to a flat spell. From Monday the 7th all the way through to Wednesday the 15th of July, it’s a dead zone. Days and days of zero swell, or tiny onshore windswell that won’t break properly. The NE winds just blow across the coast, keeping things clean but wave-less.
Finally, Wednesday morning the 15th of July offers a sniff: 2ft from the ENE, period 4 seconds – weak windswell. Winds are cross-shore from the ENE at 12 mph. Combined energy is 16. Not good. Not worth a paddle.
The best of a bad bunch is the afternoon of Saturday the 5th if you’re desperate for a glassy session on micro waves. That’s the only true standout in this whole 16-day run. The long gap between surf is brutal – nearly ten days of nothing in the middle.
Honestly, for most of this period, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Rusty, signing off.
