The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for our little corner of the coast over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with ya – this is a rough stretch. We're looking at a solid 16-day run, but honestly, there's not a single standout session in the lot. The wind is just a nightmare for the most part, hammering the coast from the north-northeast almost constantly. That cross-breeze is gonna chop things up something fierce.
We start off on Friday, July 31st, with a bit of swell showing at Jameos del Agua – about 5ft coming from the NNE. But that 16 mph cross-wind is making a mess of things, creating a lumpy cross-chop that's just no fun at all. The combined swell energy is a moderate 258, but with that wind, it's a write-off.
Moving into Saturday, August 1st, there's a glimmer. The morning sees the wind shift a touch to NNW, blowing a lighter 9 mph cross-offshore. The swell drops a bit to around 4ft, but the conditions clean right up. It's your only real window for a surf, and it's a low-energy one. That's it for the whole month, really. After that, it's back to the same story: cross-shore winds howling through the rest of the first week.
As we roll into the second week, things don't get better. The swell bumps up a bit – we see waves hitting 6ft and 6ft on Sunday and Monday, August 9th and 10th, with the combined energy climbing into the strong range (over 400). But it's all for nothing. Those fresh 19 mph cross-winds are just gonna turn the ocean into a washing machine. Do not bother.
By the time we hit the middle of August, the winds actually get stronger, blowing a strong 25 to 28 mph. The swell stays steady around 5ft to 6ft, but the conditions are properly messy. This is the kind of setup that’s more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The only bit of variety comes around Friday, August 7th, when the swell drops to a tiny 2ft from the WNW with a longer period of 9 seconds, but the energy is weak (only 105) and the wind is still cross. No good.
So, there you have it. A whole lot of nothing for the paddler. The one and only time you might want to wet a line is that Saturday morning, August 1st. It's not big, it's not powerful, but it's the only clean moment in a very long, windy forecast. Keep an eye on the charts, 'cause with a run this poor, the only way is up.
Rusty.
