The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, lookin' at the windows for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it's a bit of a slow burner for the first half, but there's a real cracker of a day shaping up for the end of the second week if you've got the patience.
We start off with a bit of a tease on Monday, September 7th. Club del la Playa is seeing some 4ft SSE swell with a 9-second period, and the morning's got a light cross-offshore breeze, so it's clean. The energy's moderate (228). It's surfable, but not a standout. The water's about average for the time of year.
Tuesday the 8th drops off a bit in size, with 3ft SSE swell in the morning under a clean offshore breeze. It's small, but you can still get a wave. The energy drops to 147 (weak to moderate). After that, it goes flat. We're looking at a real dry spell from Wednesday, September 9th, right through to Saturday, September 12th. The swell just disappears, with tiny 1ft to 1ft waves and very poor conditions. That's a solid four days of nothing worthwhile.
Sunday the 13th sees a bit of a bump, with 6ft ESE swell, but it's got a cross-onshore wind and is lumpy. The energy is strong (1072), but the quality is poor. A kite surfer might get a kick out of it, but for a paddle surfer, it's a hard pass.
The magic moment looks like Thursday, September 17th. The morning at Club del la Playa is the clear winner. We've got a solid 6ft S swell with a very long period of 12 seconds – that's proper groundswell energy. The wind is a light offshore breeze, making it super clean. The energy is strong (953). This is the one you want to circle on the calendar. The afternoon is still 6ft, but the wind swings onshore, so the morning is where it's at. Be aware that a long period swell like this can be a bit tricky at a beach break, but the point here should handle it nicely.
After that, Friday the 18th offers a decent follow-up with 5ft SSE swell in the morning, clean and cross-off, but it's not as good. The rest of the forecast window fades out to small, weak surf again.
So, the standout is clear: Thursday morning, September 17th. Set the alarm for that one.
