The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m gonna be straight with you – the next 16 days at Escollera Necochea are a tough watch for a surfer. We’ve got a long, drawn-out stretch of nothing much happening, punctuated only by a few short windows where it might be worth a paddle. The water is sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, around 51.1°.
The first few days are a write-off. Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th are a total no-go – you’ve got tiny, poor quality swell and messy wind. Tuesday the 28th is the same story. Honestly, it’s pretty bleak.
Then, a little blink of hope on Wednesday the 29th. The morning is the standout of the whole outlook. We get a clean, glassy window with a 3.9ft swell rolling in from the SSW, and the wind is dead calm. The combined energy is moderate at 252. It’s not a huge day, but for this stretch, that’s a golden hour. Thursday morning the 30th also offers some glassy conditions, but the swell drops to 2.9ft. Still, if you’re desperate, that’s your other chance.
After that, we go into another long, frustrating gap. Friday the 31st through Monday the 3rd of August is all poor surf with either small, weak energy or strong, ugly wind. The afternoon of Sunday the 2nd shows a bit more size (5.9ft) with a combined energy reading of 527, but the onshore winds will make a mess of it. The swell is coming from the SSE, which is not the optimum S direction. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for sure.
Tuesday the 4th of August gives us some clean, offshore wind with tiny 1.9ft swell – so small it’s barely worth the wetsuit. Then from Wednesday the 5th all the way through to the end of the outlook on Monday the 10th of August, it’s virtually flat or blown out. There’s a sneaky long-period (16 seconds) SSE groundswell hitting on Monday afternoon the 10th, pushing the combined energy to 618, but it’s arriving with a strong cross-onshore wind that will kill any quality. That’s one for the seabirds only.
So, if you’re hanging for a wave, keep your eye on the morning of Wednesday the 29th. That’s the one clean, glassy session with some actual push. Everything else is a struggle.
