The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me tell ya how this stretch is lookin'.
First off, don't get your hopes up. We're in for a long, dry spell. The next two weeks are lookin' pretty bleak with barely a ripple worth paddling for. There's a huge gap of surf that just isn't happening from now until the tail end of the forecast window.
For Voidokoilia, it's a sad story. Day after day, we see nothing but tiny waves and poor conditions. The swell just isn't there. Between August 8th and August 22nd, the wave energy is weak, stayin' well below 100 for most of it – we're talking values like 3 and 4, barely a bump. The water's a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 81°, but that's the only highlight. Winds are all over the place, mostly cross or cross-onshore, making a mess of what little bump there is. It's a tough time for the beginners this spot is known for.
Now, there is a flicker of hope way down the line, but it's far out. On Sunday the 23rd of August, we finally see some life. The swell starts to push in, hittin' 5 ft from the WNW with a period around 9 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 395 – that's actually moderate energy finally. Problem is, the wind is a cross-shore NNW breeze at 9 mph, so it'll be a little chopped up. The morning session on the 23rd is the only thing that gets a score of 1, and that's "marginal." The afternoon on the same day looks worse, with stronger cross-onshore winds messin' it up. The rip at Voidokoilia will likely be running.
So, here's the deal: nothing worth gettin' wet for until that last Sunday. And even then, it's marginal at best, with a rating of just 1 out of 10. It's not a standout, it's just not a complete washout.
Forget your board for now. Keep an eye on the charts, because forecasts can change, but right now, this is a two-week blank with one iffy day at the end.
Rusty.

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