The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a bit of a tough one. We're looking at a long stretch of very small, often messy surf. The water is sitting at a toasty 84°F right now, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you'll be comfortable in boardies, but you'll be doing a lot of waiting.
The first real chance of anything rideable doesn't show up until Friday, August 28th. Thursday morning the 27th is completely flat, and Thursday afternoon brings a stiff 22 mph cross-off breeze with nothing to push around. Then on Friday morning the 28th, we finally see a pulse of swell hit Focene (Focene or Baraonda). The combined energy of all swells directed here will be moderate (136), with a 4ft swell from the WSW. The period is a short 6 seconds, so it'll be a bit weak and bumpy. The wind is a gentle cross-shore breeze, but the surf quality is still rated as poor. It's a small window, but it's the best on offer in the whole 16-day run.
After that, it's back to tiny, choppy, and mostly cross-onshore conditions for the rest of the month and into September. Saturday the 29th has a bit of energy (179), but the wind is onshore and the waves are messy. You'd be better off looking at a different sport.
Honestly, the only standout in this entire forecast is that Friday morning, August 28th. It's not perfect, but it's the only time we see a decent-sized swell with manageable wind. For a beginner-friendly spot like this, anything over 5ft is a bit of a handful, so that 4ft is actually a good size for the crew.
The rest of the period is a write-off. There are long gaps of several days with no surf at all, and the few times there's a ripple, it's usually blown out. Focene is a fairly consistent spot, so a blank run like this is a bit of a bummer, but it happens. The forecasts can always change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, I'd be planning a beach day or a trip inland.
Rusty.
