The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let me break down what’s cooking over the next couple of weeks – and I’ll level with you, it’s a slow start. There’s some wave energy coming and going, but most of it is just not happening.
We’re looking at Escollera Necochea – a beach and reef break that takes south swells. The water’s about 51°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for now – nothing wild, just a little off.
On Thursday morning, July 16, we see a little bump: 2 ft swell from the south, period of 9 seconds, with a light offshore breeze out of the north. Clean, but the combined energy is only 62 – pretty weak. It’s surfable, but barely. Thursday afternoon the wind jumps to 12 mph and it’s a zero.
Now we’re looking at a big dry spell. From Friday, July 17 all the way through to Tuesday, July 28, it’s mostly rubbish. Swell heights bounce from 0.7 ft to 4 ft, but the wind is almost always cross-on, cross, or just messy. There are tiny windows with offshore breezes, but the swell is too small or poorly aimed. This stretch is dead for surfing.
The one real standout arrives late in the month. On Thursday morning, July 24, it’s still cross-shore chop with 4 ft swell – skip that. But aim for Friday afternoon, July 24. That’s your session. Swell hits 4 ft from the south, period of 9 seconds, with a light breeze from the ENE (cross-offshore), and combined energy of 269 – that’s moderate, solid. Clean conditions, the wind is in your face, and the direction is spot-on. This is the best thing in the 16-day window.
After that, it fades fast. Saturday, July 25 has 2 ft swell and offshore wind, but it’s smaller and just okay. By Sunday, July 26, the wind is howling at 22 mph from the NNE – offshore, but too strong to be fun. From Monday, July 27 onward, it’s flat or barely ankle-high, with energy in the single digits. The last days of July and start of August are a total blank.
So here’s the story: the first week and a half is a write-off. The only window worth chasing is Friday afternoon, July 24 at Escollera Necochea – clean, chest-high, and aligned with the south swell. Get in the water then.
