Constantine (3*):  2 to 3 feet

There’s a teeny bit of dampness in the air this morning, more of a feel than a touch and the wind is steadily bending the maze as it blows from the south, just adding a bump to the surface of the two to three feet of swell.
The surf is a little erratic, those sets of waves keeping you waiting while they gather themselves. And they look almost worth the wait as they finally roll lazily ashore, the wind licking across those wave faces.
So the surf is okay, not great but a couple to three feet of fun surf. But both the surf and the weather should improve through to early afternoon, those blue skies making a welcome return while the surf builds to three to four feet or bigger.
Yep, it could just get quite good later!

Harlyn (0*):  0 to 1 foot

There’s a tiny wave glassily reeling across the sand when it’s ready to.  At only six inches to a foot it is barely rideable but that is just ahead of low tide.  We should see a gradual build in swell size alongside the push of the incoming tide so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple of feet of clean and sharp surf around here this afternoon, just as the lies clear and the sunshine returns.  But it is likely to stay only small, a foot or two at best.  But at least it is an option if the bigger but lumpier, bumpier and sloppier waves of the other side don’t appeal!

Surf Forecast for Saturday 27th June 2015

It should be okay today, a three to four foot swell is likely to be rolling our way, helped along by a steady westerly wind blowing those occasional fluffy clouds along.
Yep, it should be a really nice day with very okay, if a bit lumpy surf to ride!

Surf Conditions for the Weekend

Another frustrating week of onshore winds and fairly weak, mainly small surf has teased us again this week.
But the wind does look like it might swing to the south and west as we go along and the swell should strengthen into the three feet plus range too.
West and south westerly winds are likely to help to push some more swell our way through the back half of the week and into the weekend, maybe getting big enough to show some surf at Harlyn as we go into the weekend.
The weather should stay mainly pleasant with lots of bright skies but there is always going to be that chance of a long shower or two as well.
So, a couple to three feet of clean and fun Harlyn versus three to four feet of mixed up surf at Constantine is going to be our choice to end this week!
Look out for next week, it looks like it could just be going to get HOT!
Have a great week, wherever you are and whatever you’re doing!
