Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what we’ve got for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a flat spell and a long one at that. From now all the way through to Sunday the 19th of July, there isn’t a single wave worth paddling for at Vama Veche. The combined energy of all swells directed here sits at zero (0) for every single session. That’s a dead ocean for the entire 16-day window. No swell, no surf. Just flat, calm conditions with zero wave height recorded.
The water temperature is sitting at a very warm 77°F which is about 4°F above the long-term average for this time of year – much warmer than normal, so it’d be a nice dip, but not for surfing. Winds vary from light offshore to cross-on and onshore, but with no swell to push, it doesn’t matter one bit. A few mornings show clean conditions but it’s all for nothing when there’s no wave to ride.
There is simply no standout option here. The beach is exposed to the east, but nothing is coming from any direction. If you’re desperate for water time, this setup would suit a kite session more than surfing, but even that would need some wind and fetch. For surfers, it’s a total bust. A blank run like this is more normal for this area when the summer highs sit over the region and kill any hope of groundswell. Forecasts can change, but right now there’s nothing to get excited about.
Stay patient, keep checking back, and maybe go for a swim instead.

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.
