Alright, my friends, Rusty here with the straight talk.
We’ve got a long, dry spell ahead. I’m talking a real famine for the next 16 days. Don’t hold your breath for any decent surf because there just isn’t any on the menu.
First Week of July
The only spot we could even think about is Damp (Nova Scotia), but it’s a sandbar that’s inconsistent at the best of times, and right now it’s flat.
From Tuesday through Thursday (July 7-9), the combined energy is zero – absolutely nothing. The wind is mostly offshore from the west, which would be clean, but you can’t surf clean flatness.
Friday morning, July 10, teases us with a tiny pulse: a 2ft wave from the north with a short period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is only 7. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the north-northwest, so it would be clean, but you’d be lucky to find a knee-high lump. It gets even smaller in the afternoon.
Saturday and Sunday are even worse, with 0.7ft to 1ft waves and periods of 3 seconds. The combined energy is 1 or 2. Water temp is 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal.
Second Week of July and Beyond
Then the taps just turn off. From Monday, July 13, all the way through that last week, we get zero in the combined energy column. We see some days with offshore wind and even glassy conditions on the morning of Friday, July 17, but with no swell, it’s just a mirror.
There’s a pathetic 0.7ft, 5-second north pulse on Monday morning, July 20, giving a combined energy of 2, but it’s blown out by onshore easterly winds.
The Verdict
Honestly, there’s no point looking for surf in this 16-day window. It’s a classic blank run for this area. The forecasts can change, but right now, take the time off. Not worth the effort.
Rusty.

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