The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's break down the Escollera Necochea stretch.
Don't bother paddling out until later in the week. Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th are a total loss—cross-onshore winds wrecking everything. It’s a shame, because Saturday’s got some decent energy (621) and a 7ft swell, but it's all blown out.
Things finally clean up on Sunday the 13th. We’ve got clear sky and a light cross-off breeze from the NW, dropping to a light breeze from the NNW in the afternoon. The swell settles into a clean 3ft to 4ft from the south with a 10-second period. Nothing huge, but it's clean. Water temp is about 51°F, and that’s a degree warmer than usual for this time of year. Not a standout, but a nice little session if you’re keen.
The real standout hits on Wednesday the 16th. This is the one. Look for a clean morning under clear skies with a light cross-off breeze from the NE, shifting to a gentle offshore from the NNE in the afternoon. Swell comes in at 7ft to 6ft from the south with a 10-second period. The energy is strong, reaching 865 in the morning. That’s proper groundswell. At that size—over 5ft—it’s a bit much for beginners, but for the rest of you, it's firing. The offshore wind will keep the south swell clean all day.
After Wednesday, it drops off fast. Thursday the 17th has a fresh offshore breeze but the swell is down to 3ft. Through the rest of the second week, there are long gaps with small, weak swell and bad wind—mostly cross-onshore or onshore. You'll see a bump on the 25th and 26th of September, with 7ft and 6ft swells, but the wind is terrible—fresh cross-onshore or onshore. That energy (410 and 373) with that wind is better for kiting than surfing. Not worth the paddle.
So bottom line: wait for Sunday the 13th for a small clean wave, and circle Wednesday the 16th on your calendar—that’s the day to go all in.
