The Lowdown
Right, listen up. Rusty here, looking at the 16-day outlook for Jameos del Agua.
The next two weeks are a tough watch, plain and simple. For the first eleven days, from Monday the 20th of July right through to Friday the 31st, we’ve got a solid run of swell, but the wind is a total bastard. It’s coming straight out of the NNE and N, hitting the point as a constant cross-shore. This means the water is chopped up, lumpy, and messy. The combined energy is moderate in the first week (678 on the 20th) but gets strong towards the 25th and 26th, hitting over 1200, with swell heights pushing 8ft to 10ft. That’s big, expert-only territory, but with the wind ruining it, it’s just a washing machine. Don’t even think about it.
The water is sitting at 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won’t care because you’ll be fighting the chop.
The standout window, and it’s a slim one, comes on Saturday the 1st of August. The morning session shows a 5ft, NNE swell with a very short period of 6 seconds. That’s weak, but the wind finally swings light and clean from the NNW, giving us a clean, glassy surface. The combined energy is low (180), so don’t expect any power, but for a reef break, that clean wall will be the only game in town. The same pattern holds for Sunday morning the 2nd, with a 5ft swell and clean conditions. The crowd is listed as often, so expect a few others with the same idea.
The rest of the first week of August slides back into the same cross-shore grind. It’s a bleak outlook, but if you’re desperate, you know where to be on that Saturday morning.
Rusty.
