Surf Forecasts:
Alright, Rusty here. Let me level with you about Vama Veche. Lookin' at the charts, it's a tough run ahead for the next two and a half weeks.
Honestly, the outlook is a flat spell. There's no rideable swell on the cards from now all the way through the 27th of July. We're lookin' at a solid gap of 16 days with zero surf energy – the combined energy reading is a flat 0 during that entire run. The water temp is sittin' at a warm 74°F, which is about 0.5°F above average for the time of year, so it's nice for a swim, but not for a surf.
Vama Veche is an exposed, inconsistent beach break that's best suited for beginners, but it needs some juice to get goin'. With a best-case optimum direction out of the east and nothing but a big fat "–" for swell height, direction, and period, there's simply nothing to ride. We do see some glassy conditions on Sunday morning (12 July) and Tuesday afternoon (14 July) with a few clean, cross-offshore mornings, but without any swell, it's just flat and pretty.
Unfortunately, there are no standouts, no honorable mentions – just a blank period. For this area, a blank run like this happens. It tends not to stay poor forever, forecasts can shift, but right now, there's not a wave in the water. If you're itching for something on the water, the setup with the cross-shore winds might be more interesting for the kite crew than us paddle surfers. Keep an eye on it, but for now, 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.
