The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer at Westport-The Groins.
The next week and a half is pretty grim – poor surf, choppy conditions, and cross-onshore winds dominate from Sunday July 19 right through to the end of the week. The swell is small and messy, with periods anywhere from 8 to 19 seconds, but the wind just ruins it. You’ll be staring at a lot of nothing. That gap stretches for a full seven days before we get anything worth paddling out for.
Then comes Sunday July 26 – that’s the one to circle. Early morning we’ve got a nice 3 ft swell from the SW, with a very long 19-second period – proper groundswell energy. The wind is offshore from the SSW at 9 mph, so the surface will be clean as a whistle. Combined energy is sitting at 538 – moderate, but it’ll feel punchy for the size. The break is a jetty setup, sheltered, so that long period should wrap in nicely. Crowds are only sometimes, but with conditions this good, expect a few others to have the same idea. This is the standout of the whole 16-day window. The afternoon follows with a slightly bigger 3 ft SW swell, still clean with cross-offshore winds, and energy jumps to 827 – still moderate but solid. That afternoon session is also worth a look, though the morning is the pick.
After that, the rest of the run fades back into marginal or poor conditions. Tuesday July 28 morning has a 3 ft SW swell with 19-second period, but cross-onshore winds and light chop knock it down. The rest of the week is a mix of small, choppy, or cross-on junk. Monday August 3 morning shows a 5 ft WNW swell with 8-second period and clean cross-off wind, but it’s short-period windswell and only ordinary – not a standout.
So bottom line: if you can get out on Sunday July 26, you’ll get the cleanest, most fun waves of the whole forecast. The rest is either a write-off or just average.
Rusty out.
