The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the coming days.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak if you're chasing waves. We've got a real dry spell on our hands. For the first few days, there's just nothing worth paddling out for. The energy is weak, the winds are messy, and it's a whole lot of nothing. We're looking at a gap of several days with no real surf to speak of.
The first real chance to get wet comes around Monday the 27th of July. It's not a classic, but we might see something rideable at Escollera Necochea. The swell is small, around 3 ft, coming from the S. The wind is a cross-off from the NNE, which will keep the surface pretty clean. The combined energy is moderate, at 125 (moderate wave energy), but it's one of the better-looking windows in a poor stretch.
Wednesday the 29th of July sees a bit of a jump in size, with the swell hitting 6 ft from the SSW. That's a noteworthy increase, but the wind turns onshore from the SSE, putting a chop on the surface. The period is short too, at 7 seconds, so it's going to be a bit of a mess. While the combined energy jumps to 306 (strong wave energy), the poor conditions mean it's not one for the paddleboard. Honestly, with that wind and swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, around 51°.
So, what's the best of a bad bunch? If you're desperate, the Monday morning session on the 27th is your best bet. It's clean, the swell is rideable, and with the wind being offshore from the N on the 30th of July, that morning could clean up the 4 ft swell from the S, but the period is a short 7 seconds. It's a case of picking the cleanest window, not the best wave.
Stick with it, it tends not to stay poor for long.
Rusty.
