Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me be straight with you—this is one of those outlooks where I've gotta manage expectations. Right now, there is absolutely no swell on the horizon for the entire 16-day run, from July 5th through to July 20th. Not a single wave. The combined energy of all swells directed here is sitting at zero (0) for every single session, and that's a tough one.
For Vama Veche, this is a dry spell that stretches over two full weeks. The water temp is sitting at a mild 77°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year—about 3° above the long-term average, so the water feels nice, but there's nothing to paddle into. The wind switches around a bit—some mornings will be glassy clean with light offshore breezes, like that WNW wind at 6 mph on Wednesday the 8th, or the NNW at 19 mph on Thursday the 17th—but without any swell to work with, it's just a flat, pretty lake. On days with a solid onshore push, you'll see chop, but again, no surf to mess up.
Look, with zero combined wave energy for the whole outlook, there are no standout sessions. No one break is doing anything. A blank run like this is more normal for the area during these still, summer conditions. I wouldn't even call it a kite-surfing setup because there's no real swell to play with. The best I can say is keep an eye on the forecasts—things can change. But for now, leave the board at home.
Rusty.

Information about the Vama Veche Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Vama Veche provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Vama Veche can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Vama Veche 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 (Vama Veche) 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 Vama Veche 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.
