Beliche Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the same stretch for Beliche in feet and knots.

Water’s running much colder than normal at 19° – that’s about 3° cooler than average, so don’t skimp on the rubber.

The first few days are a slow start. Thursday and Friday (3rd–4th September) are a write-off – tiny and windy. Saturday the 5th has waves around 2 ft from the NW, 9 seconds, with weak energy. Paddleable but nothing special.

Sunday morning the 6th is the first big call. Offshore wind from the NNW at 9 knots keeps it glassy, with 4 ft of NW groundswell and a 12-second period. Energy is moderate at 473. This is clean, solid, and has some push – a good session for Beliche’s point.

Monday the 7th picks up, but the wind cranks to 22 knots from the north. Swell is 4 ft to 4 ft with a long 13-second period, and energy is strong at 706. It’s clean but raw – better for the experienced crew.

Tuesday the 8th gets bigger: 6 ft in the morning, hitting 7 ft in the afternoon, but the period drops to 7 seconds. The wind is a strong offshore at 22 knots in the afternoon. That’s big, bumpy, and high-energy – more of a kite day than a paddle day.

The next week is hit-or-miss. Wednesday the 9th has 6 ft of short-period swell (8 seconds) and fresh offshore winds – sizeable but not clean.

The next real standout is Monday afternoon the 14th. A clean 4 ft of NW swell at 11 seconds, with a light cross-offshore breeze. Energy is 414, and the conditions are set to be good. That’s a fun, manageable afternoon.

Wednesday the 16th morning also looks decent: 6 ft from the NW at 8 seconds, with moderate offshore wind at 16 knots – clean but a bit short-period for the beach.

Best of the bunch: Sunday morning the 6th for the combo of clean, long-period swell and decent size. Monday afternoon the 14th is the backup – smaller but clean and user-friendly. The rest of the window is either too small, too windy, or too short-period to get pumped about.
