Table - best surf conditions forecast for Westport-The Groins over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Well, to be honest, the next 16 days around Westport-The Groins are looking pretty grim. The northwest wind is going to be a constant pest, and most of the time it’s blowing cross-onshore, making a mess of things. The swell is around, but it’s small and the wind just won’t let it clean up. The water temperature is sitting at 57°, which is about 1° cooler than normal for this time of year, so nothing crazy there, just a bit nippy.
We’ve got a bit of a blank run until the morning of Saturday, July 11th. That’s the first real flicker of hope. Early Saturday morning, we finally get a gentle offshore wind from the SSW, and the swell bumps up to 4 ft from the WNW. The wave energy is moderate (466), and it’s a short-period windswell at 10 seconds. It’s not going to be a world-beater, but it’ll be clean and surfable. The afternoon should hold up too, with a 4 ft WNW swell, a light cross-offshore breeze, and a moderate energy reading (504). For a spot that’s fairly consistent, but sheltered, this is the highlight of the whole forecast. It’s a beginner-friendly wave at this size, but keep in mind this is a beach/jetty setup, so the short period won’t help the shape much.
After that little window, it’s back to the same old story. Tuesday, July 14th, morning has a clean-ish look with a 4 ft W swell and a light cross-offshore breeze, but the period is a weak 8 seconds and the energy is low (273). It’s surfable, but nothing to get excited about. The rest of the week is a write-off with cross-onshore winds and choppy conditions.
Looking further out, the second week is a total bust. From July 17th through to the 23rd, it’s just day after day of cross-onshore wind, with swell sizes bouncing between 2 ft and 6 ft, but the wind just ruins it. The combined wave energy is moderate all the way through, but with the wind coming from the NW, it’s just going to be choppy and messy. The 6 ft swell on Monday afternoon, July 20th, might get your hopes up, but it’s a short 8-second period and the wind is onshore, so it’s going to be a lumpy, closed-out mess – honestly, more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle session.
So, the one and only standout is the morning of Saturday, July 11th. It’s the only time the wind truly plays nice. After that, it’s a long stretch of poor conditions. Grab it while you can.
Rusty.
