The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. I’ve scoured the charts for Voidokoilia, and honestly, for the next 16 days, we’re looking at a real flat spell. There isn’t a single session that’s worth paddling out for. The whole window is a write-off for decent waves.
The water is sitting at 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a dip would be comfortable, but you won’t be riding anything.
We start off Wednesday morning with a tiny 0.7ft from the WNW, but it’s a short 4-second period with next to no energy (1). The wind is a light cross-off, so it’s clean, but there’s simply nothing to surf. This same pattern drags on all week. Thursday and Friday see a little bump to 2ft, but the period stays short, and the wind swings around onshore or cross, making it choppy and messy. The weekend and into the following week stays the same story: tiny, weak, and poor.
The second week doesn’t offer any hope either. The swell trying to build around the 21st and 22nd of August only gets up to 2ft, but with a short period and fresh cross-onshore winds, it’s lumpy and unrideable. The combined energy stays weak, barely cracking 85 on the 23rd, but that’s with a 3ft swell and a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore busting it up. It’s a mess.
Remember, this is an inconsistent spot, and this long blank run is just how it goes sometimes. The forecasts can change, but as it stands, you’re better off leaving the board at home.
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.
