Escollera Necochea Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into what's cookin' for Escollera Necochea. We've got a bit of a rollercoaster ahead, so hang on.

We start off with a real bang this Sunday the 23rd, but it ain't a pretty one. A big, powerful S swell is slamming in at 11.5 ft, with a combined energy reading of 4779 – that's a whole lotta ocean moving. The problem? It's onshore, windy, and messy. This is expert-only territory, and honestly, the conditions are so poor I'd say it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The water temp is about 50.5°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. By afternoon, the swell eases a touch to 9.8 ft, but it's still pretty average.

Now, Monday the 24th? That's the standout, folks. The swell drops to a much more manageable 6.6 ft from the SSE, and the wind swings around to a light offshore breeze from the N at 5 km/h. It's clean. The combined energy is still a solid 899, so there's plenty of push. Monday afternoon stays clean with a cross-offshore breeze and 5.9 ft waves. This is the pick of the forecast. A little crowded? It can be, but for waves this good, it's worth it.

Tuesday the 25th sees the swell drop a bit more to 4.3 ft, but it's still from the SSE with a clean offshore wind. The energy is moderate at 377. A solid choice for a paddle.

Wednesday the 26th looks excellent again. We're looking at a 5.2 ft swell from the SE, with a period stretching out to 13 seconds, bringing some proper groundswell energy. The wind is offshore and clean all day. The energy reading is a very healthy 839. This is another top day for the intermediate crew.

Things start to fade from Thursday the 27th. The swell drops below 3.3 ft and the winds get messy. We have a long stretch from the 28th of August all the way through to the 6th of September where the waves are tiny and weak. There's a glimmer on Tuesday the 1st of September with a 4.3 ft S swell, but the period is a short 6 seconds and the energy is weak (109). It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about.

Then, the final few days are completely flat with onshore winds. A long, quiet end to the outlook. But hey, that Monday and Wednesday window is solid. Get it while you can.
