The Lowdown
Alright folks, it's Rusty here. Let's be real honest about the outlook for El Peaje. We're looking at a pretty flat and messy stretch ahead, so don't get your hopes up for anything decent for a while.
The first window of *any* surf comes in on Thursday, July 23rd. The swell is small, about 4ft from the ENE with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is weak (107). Not powerful at all. The saving grace for the morning is the wind goes glassy, which is a rare treat. You'll get clean, tiny waves, but it's honestly just "surfable" – nothing to write home about. The afternoon sees a bit more size at 5ft energy (365), but it gets messy with a light cross-shore, so it's marginal. The water temp is sitting at 82°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no worries there.
After that, we hit a long, dry spell. From Friday, July 24th, right through the end of the month and into the first few days of August, it's a grim run of poor surf. You'll see constant cross-onshore winds from the east and ENE, blowing around 9 mph, with some mornings up to 12 mph. The swell is consistently small, between 3ft and 5ft, and all of it is short-period windswell. The energy is mostly moderate, with a few afternoons hitting the 300s, but it's all choppy, bumpy, and poor. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, killing any chance of clean lines. This is a tough run for a spot that's exposed to the NE.
The next tiny glimmer is on Monday, July 27th, morning. Again, the wind goes glassy, giving us a tiny 3ft swell from the ENE with super low energy (96). Same story as the 23rd – clean, but tiny and weak. The rest of that day and the week after is more of the same: onshore winds and junky surf.
Honestly, if you're looking for a real standout, there isn't one. The best you're going to get is a glassy, small morning on the 23rd or the 27th. If you're desperate for a paddle, those are the only windows, but you'll be on a longboard wishing for more push. With the constant onshore wind and short-period swell, this setup at El Peaje looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer this week.
Keep your head up, though. Forecasts change.
