The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty grim stretch. We’re looking at a run of flat, tiny, or just plain poor surf that’s going to stretch all the way from now through the middle of the month. There’s nothing that stands out as a proper session, let alone a standout. The first real chance of anything even worth paddling out for is a good week away, and it’s still nothing to write home about.
The spot that’s on the radar is Dogmans (Rincon), a reef break that’s fairly consistent. Even so, the swell is tiny and the energy is weak. The combined energy of all swells here on Thursday the 10th of September, for example, is only 32 (moderate wave energy), with a swell of 1 ft from the NNE and a period of 10 seconds. That’s a clean, glassy morning with a light north breeze, so it’ll be rideable for a longboard. But it’s not going to get the heart pumping.
The water temperature anomaly is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.
The best we get is that glimmer on Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th of September, with that same tiny NNE swell hanging around. The rest of the time is a desert of flatness and poor surf conditions. A few days in the second week, like the 15th and 17th, offer a whisper of swell from the north, but it’s not enough to be a proper call. Crowds are a possibility, as it’s sometimes busy, but honestly, with this kind of surf, you’ll probably have the place to yourself.
If you’re a surfer, you’re better off saving the fuel. This is a blank run, and for this area, that’s not unusual. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a firm pass.
Rusty.
