The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the next stretch of days for El Muelle.
The first half of the window is a bit of a slow burner, but there’s a real standout late in the run that’s got my attention. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, so nothing crazy there.
The first real look we get is on Sunday, September 7th. The wind swings offshore from the NNW, and the swell drops to a clean 4ft from the SE. It’s not huge, but the moderate offshore breeze will clean it up nicely. The energy is moderate. This is a solid, fun session for intermediates.
Monday, September 8th, is much smaller with 1.5ft to 1ft swells, so don’t get your hopes up. The wind is still offshore, but it’s just too weak to do much with.
We get a bit of a tease on Thursday, September 11th, with glassy conditions and 2ft on the SSW swell. The energy is weak, but when it’s that clean, you can still find a ripple.
The real standout, though, is Monday, September 14th. The afternoon brings a 4.5ft swell from the ENE with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the NW. The energy is moderate, and the conditions are set to be gentle offshore and clean. This is the one to circle – it’s a proper groundswell, and the pier will have some nice lines.
The following week gets messy with strong onshore winds and lumpy, choppy conditions. The surf gets bigger, but the wind is all wrong. Skip the 16th through the 17th unless you’re a glutton for punishment.
Then, on Monday, September 21st, things get interesting. We’ve got an 8ft southerly swell with a 12-second period, and the wind is light from the NNE. The energy is strong, and the conditions are clean. This is big, powerful, and for experienced surfers only. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s got the potential to be the best session of the month.

Information about the El Muelle Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for El Muelle provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at El Muelle can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our El Muelle surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (El Muelle) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for El Muelle may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
