The Lowdown
Alright, mates, Rusty here. Let’s talk surf for this 16-day run.
It’s slow to start. We’ve got a few days of flatness before anything shows. The first real shot comes around Saturday the 22nd, but it’s a bit junky. Clear your calendar for Monday the 24th—that’s your day.
The first few days, Wednesday the 19th through Friday the 21st, are a total bust. Tiny waves and the wind is junk. Water temp is about 50°F, which is normal for this time of year.
Come Saturday the 22nd (Escollera Necochea), we get some life. A 7ft swell from the SSW with a 10-second period. The combined energy is 1695 (moderate wave energy), but the wind is cross-shore in the morning, making it a bit choppy. It’s surfable, but not pretty. Afternoon wind picks up, making it worse.
Sunday the 23rd: a big 10ft S swell rolls in with a long 13-second period. The combined energy is 3208 (strong wave energy). That’s a lot of water. But with a cross-onshore wind on a beach and reef setup, it’s going to be messy and heavy. Over 8ft is expert-only, and the conditions aren’t doing it any favors. It might look better for kite surfing.
The standout is Monday the 24th. This is the one. A clean offshore wind from the NNE in the morning, blowing right into your face. The swell is a solid 6ft from the SSE with an 11-second period. The energy is 792 (moderate wave energy), but that offshore wind is the key. Expect clean, lined-up waves. The wind stays offshore into the afternoon, though it gets a little stronger, so the morning session is the call. Crowds are possible.
After that, it drops off. Tuesday the 25th goes back down to 3ft and the window closes. There’s a small, clean wave on Saturday the 29th with some 3ft surf and offshore wind—good for a log, but nothing special.
Looking further ahead, there’s a pulse around Tuesday the 1st of September. A 7ft SW swell shows in the afternoon with a short 7-second period, but the wind is light and clean. The next day, Wednesday the 2nd, has a 3ft ESE groundswell (10-second period) with a gentle offshore. Promising, but still a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed.
Rusty.
