The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a pulse of solid, long-period southern hemi groundswell hitting the coast, but it’s bringing a bit of a mixed bag for the local breaks. The biggest issue is the wind and the tide. It’s not a total write-off, but you’ll have to be picky with your sessions.

The first real chance to get wet kicks off Monday afternoon, July 27th, at Acapulquito-Costa Azul (Costa Azul). The swell is a solid 7ft out of the south with a 13-second period, and the wave energy is strong (3069). That’s a decent amount of water, but it’s a bit on the bigger side for beginners. The bigger issue is that cross-shore wind from the SW at 12 mph is going to put a bit of a chop on the surface. The water is running at 87°F, which is a massive 6°F warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like a bath! It’s surfable, but the conditions are a bit messy.

Tuesday the 28th is the standout of the whole window. The swell holds at 7ft, but it shifts to the SSW and the period jumps to a very long 16 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, straight out of the deep south. The wave energy is still pumping (3422 in the morning). The morning is a bit of a let-down with a light cross-onshore, but the Tuesday afternoon session is the one. The wind swings to the W at 16 mph, turning it into a clean cross-offshore breeze. The waves will be peeling nicely, although that long period means it might be a bit straighter on the beach, so look for a sandbank. For a more experienced surfer, this is the best on offer.

Wednesday the 29th is still fun, with 7ft of SSW swell and 16-second period, but the wind is a bit more on it in the morning with a cross-shore. The afternoon cleans up again with a cross-off from the NW at 16 mph, but the swell drops to 5ft.

From Thursday the 30th onwards, the swell starts to fade. We go from 4ft down to just ankle-snappers by the weekend. The wind remains mostly cross or cross-onshore, making for poor quality. By the start of August, the surf is gone. The water is flat, and the week from August 1st to the 7th is a real desert – nothing but small, weak waves with poor conditions.

There is a tiny flicker of hope on the 10th and 11th of August. The swell period gets back up to 19-20 seconds, but the height is only 2ft to 4ft. The energy is picking up a bit (1015 on the 11th), but the conditions are still marginal with cross-onshore winds. It’s a long-range glimmer, but nothing to get excited about just yet.

The bottom line: Tuesday afternoon, July 28th, is your best bet. Get there for the 7ft SSW swell with that clean cross-offshore wind. The rest of the run is a slow fade into small, choppy waves.

Rusty.
