The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the beach. Gotta be honest with ya, the next couple of weeks are lookin' like a bit of a flat spell with a whole lotta meh. We're talkin' a real quiet start. The first decent surf isn't even on the radar until Wednesday the 2nd of September, and even then, it's just a whisper.
So, let's start with that Wednesday morning, the 2nd. Club del la Playa will see a small 2ft easterly swell, but that northerly offshore wind at 6 mph will have the surface lookin' clean. It's tiny, though, and the wave energy is weak (52). It's just about enough to wet the board. That little blip fades fast, and we're back to next-to-nothin' for days.
The first real standout, the one that gets the heart beatin' a little faster, is Tuesday the 8th of September. Club del la Playa will finally see something worth gettin' up for. The morning is the pick, with a clean 3.3ft swell out of the SSE, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE at just 6 mph. Wave energy is moderate (208) and it'll be a solid, clean, shoulder-high day. The water is runnin' at 54.3°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the wetsuit might feel a little less restrictive. The afternoon holds up, but that wind picks up to a moderate breeze, so lock in the morning.
After that Tuesday, it's a slow slide back into mediocrity. The 12th of September (Saturday) has a bit of a mixed bag. The morning is messy with cross-shore ripples on a weak 2.3ft swell (245 energy - moderate), but then the afternoon cleans up with a light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE and the same swell. Worth a look if you're desperate.
Honestly, if you can wait, the 8th of September morning is the one true highlight in this entire 16-day stretch. The rest is mostly knee-to-waist high dribble with onshore wind. It's a tough outlook, but that's the story from the sand.
