The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for Acre (Mifalim) or Ako over the next 16 days is a tough one for surfers. This is a river break, exposed to westerly swells, and it’s consistent, but the conditions just aren’t lining up for a decent paddle.
Right now, starting Saturday the 15th of August, we’ve got a tiny 3 ft swell pushing in from the west with a weak 7-second period. The combined wave energy is barely a whisper at 57, and with a 9 mph cross-onshore wind, it’s choppy and messy. Water temp is sitting at a warm 85°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Saturday afternoon doesn’t improve – still small, 3 ft, and the wind swings to a direct onshore at 12 mph. Not worth getting wet.
Sunday the 16th shows a little life in the morning – the swell picks up slightly to 3 ft from the WNW, period stretches to 8 seconds, and energy bumps up to a moderate 107. The wind is light onshore at 3 mph, so it might be glassy and okay for a beginner session, but the forecast still calls it marginal. By afternoon, the wind swings NW at 12 mph, turning it choppy again.
Monday the 17th through the rest of the first week is a write-off. Swell stays under 3 ft, periods drop back to 6-7 seconds, and every session is plagued by onshore or cross-onshore winds. Energy readings are mostly in the weak double-digit range.
The second week doesn’t offer a redemption arc. From the 22nd of August right through to the 29th, we’re looking at tiny 1 ft to 2 ft swell, short periods of 5-6 seconds, and weak energy numbers (10 to 52). Wind remains a constant cross-onshore, keeping the surface bumpy. It’s just not happening.
There is one flicker of hope right at the end, on Sunday the 30th of August. The morning brings a 3 ft swell from the WNW with a 7-second period and the energy climbs to 99 – still not strong, but getting closer. Best of all, the wind is only 6 mph from the NW, a light cross-onshore. It’s rated as marginal, but for a beginner-friendly river break, it might be the only real chance in the entire outlook.
But honestly? For the seasoned surfers, there’s nothing here that’ll get your heart pumping. The consistent nature of this break means it doesn’t usually stay flat for this long, so forecasts could change. But right now, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing across many of these afternoons with those moderate cross-onshore winds.
Keep an eye on that Sunday the 30th morning, and hope for better luck next time.
Rusty.
