The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. This is Rusty.
Look, I’m gonna level with you. The next week and a half at Focene is a tough pill to swallow. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing but tiny, weak swell and barely any energy behind it. The water’s sitting around average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there. But for surfing? It’s a desert.
Wednesday the 19th through to Thursday the 28th of August is a real quiet run. We’re talking swell heights barely cracking 2ft most days, with periods so short the waves have no push. The combined wave energy is pathetic – mostly double-digit numbers (4 to 29) that just tell you there’s nothing doing. The wind’s a mixed bag, but even the glassy mornings on the 19th and 27th can’t save this flat spell. There’s just no swell to work with.
For the absolute beginner, Focene or Baraonda is a fairly consistent spot that’s exposed to SW swell. It’s a beach break, so don’t expect any magic. But through this whole first stretch, even the small stuff is weak and poorly shaped. The crowds are often here, but honestly, nobody’s gonna be paddling out for ankle-high waves. It’s a no-go.
Now, Friday the 28th of August morning rolls around and we finally see a spike. A WSW swell jumps to 6ft with a 7-second period, and the energy jumps to 376 – that’s moderate energy, finally something to talk about. The wind’s light cross-onshore, so it’s not perfect but it’s rideable. This is the best on offer, but it’s still a marginal call. The afternoon gets bigger, 7ft, but the wind shifts and makes it a mess.
After that, it drops right back down. Saturday the 29th has a clean morning with a 3ft WSW swell, but the energy’s only 51, so it’s weak. Then we’re back to knee-high slop all the way through to Thursday the 3rd of September.
Honestly, the only standout window is Friday morning the 28th of August. That’s your best bet if you’re desperate and an experienced surfer – 6ft WSW swell, light cross-onshore wind, and moderate energy (376). But it’s not classic. Everything else is a flat spell with a few tiny bumps. If you’re a beginner, stay home. If you’re a kiter, the afternoon on the 28th might be worth a look with that 7ft and cross-on wind.
Rusty.
