Surf Forecasts:
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you. This is a tough one to write.
Looking at the full 16-day window for the Vama Veche area, I gotta tell you, there's just nothing happening. The forecast is a flat, empty run with zero wave energy coming in. We're looking at a big fat zero for the combined swell energy (0) across the entire period. It's a total blank.
From now, Monday the 13th of July, all the way through to Tuesday the 28th of July, there is no surf on offer. That's a solid 16-day gap with no recommendations. Every single session, morning and afternoon, is flagged as "poor surf conditions." The swell height is a dash, the period is a dash – there's simply no swell.
Now, Vama Veche itself is a beginner-friendly spot that's exposed to the east, but it's also inconsistent. It tends not to stay flat for this long, and forecasts can change. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is about average for the time of year with a slight anomaly of -0.9°.
The wind does clean up at times, like on the 20th of July Monday morning and the 26th of July Sunday morning, when it goes glassy. But without any swell to push through, it's just a flat, pretty lake. There's literally nothing to paddle into.
We'll keep an eye on it, but for now, the only thing breaking here is the surface of the water on a calm day. This is a classic blank run for this area, and it's a good time to wax the board and wait.
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.
