The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks at Velzyland.
Overall, it's a tough stretch. We're looking at a long run of flat to tiny, poor-condition surf, with only a few brief windows of something rideable. The first few days are a write-off, with next to no size. There's a bit of a pulse trying to build around the 24th, but it's small and the conditions are pretty average. Then it goes completely flat for a solid week. Not much to get excited about, to be honest.
Let's break it down. Starting from now, we've got nothing worth paddling out for until Friday the 24th of July. That morning we see a tiny 3ft swell from the east with a short 8-second period, combined wave energy is weak (101). The wind is a gentle cross-offshore from the north, so the surface is clean, but it’s barely cracking a ripple. It's surfable but only just. The morning of Saturday the 25th is similar, with 2ft east swell (7 seconds) and light north winds keeping it clean, but energy is even lower (75).
Moving into the second week, there's a small window on Monday the 27th morning. A tiny 1ft SSE swell with a long 12-second period is running, and a light north cross-offshore wind keeps it clean. Wave energy is moderate (114), but the size is absolutely minimal. Then we have to wait all the way to Tuesday the 4th of August. The morning offers a 1ft SE swell with a long 13-second period, north cross-offshore wind, and clean conditions, with moderate energy (79). Again, it's just small and ordinary. Finally, Thursday the 6th of August morning has a 3ft east swell (7 seconds) with a gentle north cross-offshore wind making it clean, and moderate energy (125). It's the best on offer, but that's not saying much.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Thursday the 6th of August (in the second week) at Velzyland. With a 3ft east swell and that clean cross-offshore north wind, it's the most consistent size and best conditions we see. But honestly, for a reef break like this, you're hoping for a bit more push. Even then, this is a long-range call so don't hold your breath.
The water temp is currently 74°F, which is about average for the time of year. The crowds here are "sometimes" an issue, but with this quality of surf, you probably won't have to fight for waves.
Honestly, this is a long blank run. If you're desperate, the morning windows on the 6th of August are the best of a very poor bunch, but keep your expectations low. The setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard through most of this period.

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