Table - best surf conditions forecast for 13th Ave South Surfside over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here, lookin’ at the charts for ya. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a long, flat run on the cards for 13th Ave South Surfside. There’s no surf worth paddling out for right away, so we’re looking at a big gap right through the start.
The first half of this forecast window is a proper dead zone. From Friday the 10th all the way through to Monday the 21st of July, it’s tiny, messy, and the wave energy is just pathetic – barely scraping into double digits most of the time. The biggest swell we see in that stretch is only 3ft, and it comes with onshore gunk. You’d be wasting your time.
Then we finally get a little pulse around the 22nd. Wednesday the 22nd of July shows a bit of life with some south swell bumping up to 4ft. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 85°, which is nice, but that’s about the only highlight. The wind’s been mostly cross-off and clean that morning, but the energy is still moderate at best (129). The waves are just surfable, nothing to write home about.
Thursday the 23rd of July is similar – 4ft of south swell, cross-off wind, and moderate energy (136). It’s clean but it’s not gonna blow your mind. For a beginner spot that’s already inconsistent, this is about as good as it gets, and even then, it’s only a “meh” kind of morning session.
Honestly, there’s no standout day here. No big groundswell, no long period, no glassy perfection. If you’re desperate, the cleaner windows on the 22nd and 23rd mornings might give you a couple of weak, slow rollers. Just don’t expect any power. Crowds are possible there, so you might have company for the small stuff.
Rusty.
