Alright mates, Rusty here again, with the numbers in feet and miles.
We're looking at a slow start. The first few days are a total dud with tiny, weak swells and rubbish wind. It's not until Thursday morning, July 9th, that we see something with a pulse. That's a solid three-day stretch of no surf to kick things off. The one and only standout is that Thursday morning.
Torrance Beach/Burn Out – The only spot worth watching. Early on Thursday, July 9th, we've got some long-period groundswell coming from the SSW. The swell is a modest 2 to 3 feet, but it's carrying some real energy with a long 18-second period. The combined energy is moderate (372), and the absolute winner here is the wind. A light, clean offshore breeze from the SSE will have the waves glassy and peeling. It won't be big, but for a clean, small-wave session, that's your window. The water temperature is about normal for the season. Keep in mind, the crowd factor is often a thing here, so get in early for a wave.
After that Thursday morning window, it's a long, slow grind. We get a few more mornings with clean offshore winds (like the 10th, the 14th, and a promising-looking morning on July 17th), but the swell is tiny, barely 1 to 2 feet, with weak energy. The 17th of July morning has a similar 1 to 2 foot groundswell with a clean breeze, but it's over a week away and you're just hunting for ankle-snappers. The second week looks flat and messy overall. Not much to write home about.
