The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you: the next 16 days are a tough watch for surf around Vouliagmeni. We're looking at a long stretch, from today, Wednesday the 5th of August, all the way through to the 20th of August, with nothing but flat spells and poor surf conditions. The only tiny flicker of life comes right at the very end.
For the first 13 days, it's a total write-off. The combined energy is zero, and every single session is labelled "poor surf conditions." The wind is mostly offshore or clean, which is a real kick in the teeth because it's blowing over a flat ocean. Water temp is sitting at 78°, which is about 1° above normal for this time of year, so it's a little warmer than average but nothing crazy.
The only break we've got to talk about is Vouliagmeni. It's an exposed spot, inconsistent, and best for beginners, but unfortunately, there's just nothing to ride. The whole first two weeks are a complete blank.
Then, on the morning of Tuesday the 18th of August, a tiny ripple shows up. A 1-foot swell from the SSW with a period of 4 seconds creeps in. The combined energy is a measly 4. It's glassy, which is nice, but that's a pathetic, short-period windswell that won't wrap in or hold up. It's more of a lake ripple than a surfable wave. The afternoon gets a sloppy 1-foot swell from the S with a 3-second period, and onshore wind. Not worth paddling for.
The next morning, Wednesday the 19th, there's a 0.7-foot swell from the S with a 4-second period. The combined energy is just 1. That's it. We're talking about dribble. The wind is clean, but it's still not surf.
That's your lot. A 13-day drought followed by a couple of days of laughable ripples. If you're desperate for a paddle, Tuesday the 18th morning is the least bad option, but don't expect a wave. For the rest of the period, it's a flat spell you'd normally expect in a place like this when the swell window closes up. Keep your board in the car and your eyes on the horizon—forecasts can change, and it won't stay poor forever.
Rusty.

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