The Lowdown
Right, Rusty here again. Let's talk play-by-play for Club del la Playa.
First thing: this is a beach and point break, and it’s consistent, but we’ve got a drought of good surf to start. The 12th and 13th are a no-go. You’ve got the wind hammering onshore, and the swell is short-period, weak, and choppy. Not worth the paddle out. The water temp is about 13°, a touch warmer than the long-term average for the season.
The real standout is shaping up for Wednesday the 23rd. This is the day to circle. A long-period, 11-second SSE groundswell, a solid 1.3m, and the wind is going from a light cross-offshore in the morning to dead glass in the afternoon. The wave energy is moderate at 447. That’s clean, smooth, and user-friendly.
For the bigger wave crew, Thursday the 24th is the highlight. The period stretches to 12 seconds, the swell holds at 1.4m, and you’ve got clean NNW offshore wind. The combined energy jumps to 604, which is solid. That’s got some push and shape. Be aware, at this size, it’s pushing towards the upper limit for a standard board, so it’s more for the experienced.
Friday the 25th hangs in there with a 2-1.6m swell and a 12-second period, but it’s labeled “marginal” on the conditions, so tread carefully. The energy is strong (up to 1049). After that, the swell fades and the wind turns ugly again by the 27th.
So, bottom line: suffer through the first week of nothing. Wednesday the 23rd and Thursday the 24th are your golden tickets. The 23rd for that perfect glassy session, the 24th for a bit more grunt. Don't waste your time before them.
Rusty.
