The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.

First off, I gotta be straight with you – we’re looking at a pretty grim run. The entire 16-day window is one long stretch of poor surf conditions. There’s no standout session, no hidden gem, and honestly, no real reason to rush for a board. The first and only break on the radar is Jameos del Agua, a reef setup that’s fairly consistent, but the wind is a killer. It’s blowing a cross-shore from the N to NNE at 15–22 mph for most of the period, which is just churning the ocean into a lumpy, cross-chop mess. The swell is coming from the NNE, which is close to the optimum direction, but it’s short-period windswell (mostly 7–8 seconds) and the energy is moderate at best – you’ll see values between 263 and 583 (moderate wave energy). The wave heights hover around 5 ft to 7 ft for the first week or so, which is fine for intermediates, but it’s all just poor surf. The water temp is about average for August, so no surprises there.

There’s a bit of a drop in the second week – from the 17th onward, the swell height settles to 3 ft to 5 ft, and the period stretches out to 9 seconds on the 18th and 19th, which is a touch better for shape, but the wind stays cross-shore and fresh. Even on the 21st and 22nd, when the period hits 10 seconds, the wind is still cross or cross-onshore, so the face just won’t clean up. The energy dips to as low as 145 (weak) by the 23rd.

In short, there’s no day in this whole window where the stars align. The wind and swell combo just isn’t on. If you’re desperate, you could paddle out on a cross-shore day if you’re happy with bumpy, choppy lines, but it’s not what I’d call a good session. The setup might actually be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, given the consistent cross-wind.

Stay patient, folks. Sometimes it’s like this – forecasts can change, and it won’t stay poor forever.

Rusty.
