Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Alright, let's talk Three Peaks. To be honest, it's been a dead run. A big old blank at the start with nothing worth mentioning for days.

Our first actual chance to get wet comes late on Monday, the 13th of July. It's a glassy 2ft wave from the west with a 13-second period and combined energy of 107. It's tiny and clean but just very ordinary.

Tuesday morning, the 14th of July, is our best bet. We've got a clean 2ft west swell pushing in with an 11-second period and light offshore winds. Combined energy hits 122. That's the standout of this whole forecast, if you can even call it that. For a beginner break, it's pretty flat.

On Wednesday the 15th of July, the afternoon goes glassy again with a 2ft west swell, 9-second period, and 56 combined energy. Clean but tiny.

The rest of the run is mostly junk. There's some wind swell on Friday the 17th of July with 4 to 5ft of southwest slop, but it's short period (6 seconds) and onshore, so it's messy. That setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.

Water temp is running at about 66°, which is a massive 8° above normal for this time of year. That's a seriously unusual warm stretch.

So, the best on offer is Tuesday the 14th. It's clean but weak. We're just waiting for a real pulse.

Rusty.

Information about the Three Peaks Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Three Peaks provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Three Peaks can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Three Peaks surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Three Peaks) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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 Three Peaks 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.

Three Peaks is 25 km (16 miles) from Swansea. If you plan a holiday in Wales - Gower, look for hotels and other accommodation in Swansea. Swansea has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
