The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what we've got lined up.
Truth is, it's looking pretty flat and windy for the next week and a half. Boca del Abajo, that exposed reef and point, is hungry for the right direction, but the wind is just blowing us out with a nasty north-northeast onshore flow for days. There's nothing worth paddling for until Sunday afternoon, September 13th.
Let's talk about that Sunday. The 13th of September is your winner. The morning is still a bit meh with chest-high swell, but the wind starts to die. By the afternoon, it's glassy – I'm talking a whisper of a breeze from the north-northwest. The swell is a clean 5ft from the north. This is the standout session. The water's sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than usual. The wave energy is moderate (353), but with the wind completely gone and a clean little north pulse, this is the one. It's an expert zone, so know your limits, but for the crew that does, that Sunday arvo will be magic.
Then the plug gets pulled. Monday the 14th tosses up a 3ft north-northwest groundswell with a long 13-second period, but the wind is back on, ruining any chance of clean waves. From there, from the 14th right through to the 23rd of September, it's a long, flat spell. The energy drops right off into the weak zone (as low as 86), and we're looking at small, wind-affected slop. That Sunday is your one and only window. If you're not surfing it, you're on the beach watching.
Rusty.
