The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what we've got coming down the line.
First up, the water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might get away with a thinner suit. The real story for the next couple of weeks is that it's not going to be epic, but there are a few windows where you can get a slide in.
We've got a slow start. Monday the 14th at Club del la Playa (beach and point) is about as small as it gets, with 0.7m (2ft) of south swell. But the morning is glassy, and the afternoon is dead calm – so the conditions are pristine, just no power. The combined wave energy is moderate at 167. It’s surfable, but you'll be working for it. Nothing to get excited about.
Tuesday the 15th is a write-off. Strong onshore winds and messy conditions. Skip it.
Wednesday the 16th is a step up. The swell jumps to 1.3m (4ft) from the SSE, and the combined energy is moderate at 345. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it’s not going to be perfect, but it's the best of a bad bunch early on. It’s marginal, but you could get a few.
Thursday the 17th sees the swell drop back to 0.9m (3ft), but the morning is clean with a gentle offshore breeze from the north. The energy is down to 153, but with clean conditions, it's a more enjoyable small day.
Friday the 18th through Saturday the 19th is a real flat spell. Swell drops to almost nothing, and the wind is up. Don't bother.
We get a pulse back on Sunday the 20th. 1.0m (3ft) from the east, period of 8 seconds, and a clean morning with gentle breeze. The energy is moderate at 128. It’s small and short period, but it's a surf.
Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd are messy again with onshore winds and choppy conditions. Not great.
Now, the standout. If you can wait, Monday the 28th of September is the one to circle. The morning looks fantastic. We get 1.2m (4ft) of swell from the SSE, with a 9-second period, and a light offshore wind from the north. The combined wave energy is moderate to strong at 256, and the forecast says "expect good surf conditions." That’s the cleanest, most powerful window of the whole run. It’s small enough for intermediates, but with the offshore wind, it’ll be good.
After that, Tuesday the 29th brings a bigger swell of 1.5m to 1.6m (5ft to 5ft) from the south, but it’s accompanied by a strong onshore wind, making it a messy, blown-out mess. That one is for experts only if they’re desperate, and it won't be pretty.
Overall, the first week is mostly pedestrian, with a few clean but small windows. The real highlight is the morning of Monday the 28th – that’s your best bet by a long shot.
Rusty.
