The Lowdown

Right folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Acapulquito-Costa Azul.

Alright, so the next couple of weeks have a bit of a split personality. We've got some proper swell showing up, but the wind and conditions are going to dictate whether it's any good. The early part of the window looks promising, then things turn a bit wild and stormy before fading out. Let's break it down.

The water is sitting at a very warm 86°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year. It's like bathwater, but nice for a long session.

Kicking off on Thursday the 23rd, we've got small clean surf in the afternoon. The morning's a bit messy with 2ft from the SW and a cross-on breeze, but by the arvo it goes glassy with 3ft SW swell. That's a solid, clean start. The combined wave energy is moderate (324).

Friday the 24th sees a jump in power. The afternoon brings a 4ft SW swell but a strong cross-shore wind makes it choppy. The energy is serious though at (1321).

Now, Saturday the 25th is the standout. The morning has 4ft SSW swell with a clean, cross-offshore breeze and combined energy of 1350. The afternoon gets even better, with 6ft SSW swell and the same clean conditions, pushing energy to 2112. This is excellent, strong surf for experienced surfers, and that offshore wind will have them lining up cleanly. This is the call of the forecast.

Sunday the 26th is still solid, with 5ft SSW swell both sessions, but the wind swings around, bringing in a cross-chop that kills the quality. Still a fun size, but not as clean as Saturday.

Then it gets into some heavy territory. From Monday the 27th through Thursday the 30th, we're looking at big swell, consistently over 7ft and peaking near 13ft. The wave energy is very strong, hitting over 5000. The problem is the wind. It's either howling onshore or creating a cross-chop mess that makes it poor to marginal for surfing. The 10ft to 13ft range is expert-only territory anyway, and with the wind that's on offer, this might be more of a kite-surfing playground than a paddler's paradise.

Things settle down a bit towards the end of the month. Friday the 31st of July is worth a look. The afternoon has 6ft SW swell and clean, cross-offshore wind. That's a decent way to finish the week. The energy is moderate (1127).

From August 1st onwards, the surf drops away quickly. We get some waist-to-shoulder high waves on the 1st, but the wind is messy again. Then from Sunday the 2nd all the way through to Friday the 7th of August, it's a long flat spell. The swell is tiny, mostly below 2ft, and the conditions are poor. A blank run like this for a spot that is already inconsistent is fairly normal for this time of year. Don't hold your breath.

So, to wrap it up: Saturday the 25th of July is your winner. Get on it early for clean 4ft SSW swell, or the afternoon for bigger 6ft SSW with the same clean offshore breeze. The second week is a write-off.

Rusty.
