The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s cut through the fluff.

Right now, we’re in a dry spell. From the 19th to the 24th of August, the surf is mostly small, choppy, and not worth the effort. You’re looking at weak, short-period slop with cross-onshore breezes. Don’t bother; save your energy.

The first decent window opens up on the morning of Tuesday the 25th of August. Acapulquito-Costa Azul will have a small 2ft SSW groundswell with a long 16-second period. The wind goes glassy from the NNW, offshore, and clean. It’s inconsistent here, so you’ll have to wait for the sets, but when they come, they’ll be nice little peelers. The water temp is about average. Crowds are possible. This is a nice little spot if you want a quiet, clean session.

The real standout, no question, is the morning of the 28th of August. Swell jumps to about 5ft from the SW, with a very long 17-second period. That’s a serious groundswell with lots of energy, and the combined energy is a massive 1268 (strong). That’s getting up towards 5ft, so it’s for the experienced crew – beginners, stay on the beach. The wind is glassy, offshore from the ESE, and the waves will be clean, powerful, and lined up. This is the point-and-reef setup working perfectly. The afternoon is also glassy with no wind. That’s your best session, hands down.

On the 29th, there’s still good swell around 5ft, with a clean cross-offshore wind on the Saturday afternoon. Good for experienced surfers. The 30th still has a 4ft glassy morning, but after that the swell fades and the winds turn onshore through the first days of September, so don’t plan on much in the second week.

So, bottom line: it’s quiet for a week, then a tiny glassy window on the 25th, but the absolute best call is the morning of the 28th. Big, clean, powerful. Be there.
