Hey everyone, Rusty here. Been digging into Voidokoilia for the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a lean run. The guidance shows it as an inconsistent beginner set-up, and that’s exactly what we’ve got.
The Big Picture
We're in for a long stretch of super tiny, weak surf. From Thursday the 9th all the way to Wednesday the 22nd, the total wave energy is barely getting out of the single digits (mostly between 1 and 14) – that’s just a whisper. Swell heights are stuck between 0.3ft and 2ft, and the periods are short (2 to 7 seconds). This is all local windswell, nothing with any grunt. No power, no real shape.
The Breakdown
From Thursday the 9th through the weekend, it’s a total write-off. Wind is mostly cross-onshore, making everything choppy. A small window opens Friday morning the 10th with a light breeze and clean conditions, but the swell is a measly 1ft – more of a ripple than a wave. After that, it’s back to onshore slop and tiny lumps, all logged as "poor surf conditions."
Things try to build on Sunday the 19th and Monday the 20th. Swell hits 2ft, and the energy finally gets into triple digits (42 and 43) – but the wind is a solid cross-onshore breeze, turning it into a choppy, blown-out mess. The period is still short at 6 seconds, so you’ve got weak, lumpy lumps. Not worth the drive.
After that, it drops back into the completely flat zone. There are some glassy mornings on Tuesday the 21st and Thursday the 23rd, but with the swell at 0.7ft to 1ft, you’re just staring at a mirror. The energy is pathetic, back down to single digits.
The Verdict
There simply isn't a best spot this time around. If you're a total beginner who wants to paddle around in glassy, ankle-deep water, maybe check Thursday morning the 16th or Friday morning the 17th – dead calm winds, but the energy is nothing (7 and 3). For anyone wanting to actually surf, it’s a two-week holiday. That "poor surf conditions" label runs from start to finish.
A blank run like this is just how it goes here sometimes. The ocean’s having a nap.
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.
