Table - best surf conditions forecast for Escollera Necochea over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here, and we’re taking a hard look at what’s on the menu. To be brutally honest, the next two weeks are a bit of a write-off for us. We’ve got one spot on the radar, and even it is mostly a no-go.
The Only Game in Town (and it's a tough one)
Right now, the only break that’s even clocking in is Escollera Necochea. This is a beach and reef setup, exposed to the south. It’s a spot that’s *very consistent*, which usually is a good thing, but the swell and wind just aren’t lining up for a proper session.
Sunday the 12th kicks off flat and messy. There’s a tiny 3ft ESE swell (combined energy 379) on the morning, but it’s getting hammered by a 9 mph onshore wind. The water is sitting at 52°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you wouldn't want to be out there long in those conditions.
We get a glimmer of hope Monday the 13th. A cleaner 3ft to 4ft ESE groundswell (period 12s) rolls in, and we finally see offshore winds from the North. The wind builds to a fresh 19 mph in the afternoon, making it a bit hairy, but the morning has its merits. For a surfer who just needs a paddle, that Monday morning is probably the best you’re going to get, but the quality is very ordinary.
From Tuesday the 14th onward, it’s a sad story. Tiny swell, or swell with terrible cross-onshore winds. The combined energy drops into the double and single digits. Even Thursday afternoon the 16th, with glassy conditions and a 2ft S swell, it’s just too weak to do anything with.
Things get more interesting, but not better, on July 22nd. We see a big 10ft S swell hit, with combined energy going through the roof (1929). That’s expert territory and heavy, but the cross-shore wind is a strong 25 mph, making it a messy, choppy mess. That’s not a surf day, that’s a day to watch from the beach.
The following week is more of the same. A 8ft S swell on Thursday the 23rd looks solid on paper, but the period is only 10 seconds, conditions are listed as marginal, and the winds are still not cooperating. The energy is there (1154), but it’s just not clean.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there’s no standout. There are no great waves, no great winds. Monday the 13th morning is the closest we get to a surfable wave, but it’s not a standout for anyone other than the die-hard. For the rest of the period, the winds and swell are so out of sync that the beach setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. It’s a tough run.
Stay patient,
Rusty
