The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what Acapulquito-Costa Azul is serving up. It’s going to be a slow two weeks, no doubt about it. The swell is small, and the wind is all over the place. The water is a warm 87°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least the comfort is there.
We start on Sunday, August 9th, with a poor 3ft SSW swell and a moderate cross breeze. Not a good start. Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th are just marginal, with light cross-onshore winds and little waves.
A glimmer of hope shows up on Thursday the 13th. The morning session is glassy with a 3ft SSW swell. That’s the cleanest it’s going to get. Light airs, no wind bumps. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-off breeze, too. That Thursday morning is the standout of the first week.
The swell gets a little bigger by Friday the 14th, with 5ft from the SW by the afternoon, and moderate energy (1214). But the wind is light cross-onshore, so it’s going to be a bit crinkly. Saturday the 15th is the same story with a 4ft SSW swell.
Sunday the 16th afternoon brings another good window. A 4ft SSW swell with a clean cross-off breeze. The conditions will be clean, and that’s a solid bet for a late session.
From Monday the 17th onward, it’s basically small and messy. Waves drop to around 2ft to 3ft, and the wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore. There’s a couple of clean cross-off moments on the 23rd and 24th, but the swell is tiny. Not worth a special trip.
So, your best bets are Thursday morning the 13th for glassy small waves, and Sunday afternoon the 16th for a bit more size and clean conditions. The rest is a wait-and-see situation.
This spot is an inconsistent one, so when the stars align, you gotta go.
Keep your eyes on the horizon.
