Velzy Land Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cooking at Velzy Land for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, for a place that's usually pretty consistent, we're looking at a long, flat spell right off the bat. There's a solid week of near-nothing on offer here. From Monday the 24th of August right through to the end of the month, it's a total bust. We're talking tiny, knee-to-waist-high dribble at best—nothing over 2ft—and the wind is a stubborn cross-off or cross breeze, keeping things clean but gutless. The swell energy is just sad, barely breaking 70 (67) for the best of it. You'd be better off waxing a window.

We finally get a pulse of energy rolling in on Monday the 31st of August, but it's a messy one. A chunky 5ft to 5ft NE windswell shows up with a short, weak period of only 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 216 and then 262, so there's some push, but the cross-wind is going to chop it right up. This is not paddle-surfing weather; this is more of a kite-surfing setup, all that lumpy cross-chop and moderate breeze. Still a "poor surf conditions" call.

Then we dip back into flatness and doldrums for the first few days of September—nothing on the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th except clean but empty water.

Now, here's the one true standout for the whole outlook. Circle Monday the 7th of September. Out of nowhere, the ocean wakes up. The morning is tiny, but by the afternoon, a solid 8ft NE groundswell arrives with a beautiful 11-second period. The wind goes super light, a gentle 6 mph cross-off from the east, making it glassy. The combined energy is a massive 1227—that's serious power. This is a reef break that loves a NW swell, and this NE direction will wrap in nicely. We're talking excellent, clean conditions for experienced surfers only. 8ft is big, steep, and powerful on a reef. Beginners, watch from the cliff. It’s far out, but if it holds, this is the session of the outlook.

The next morning on the 8th drops back to a tiny 1ft leftover with a long 13-second period—surfable but ordinary.

So, you’ve got a lot of flat waiting for one quality day. Keep an eye on that Monday the 7th.

Stay wet,
Rusty
