The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be real – I’ve looked over the numbers for this next stretch, and I gotta say, it’s a tough one. We’re looking at Jameos del Agua, a reef setup that’s fairly consistent and fairly exposed to the swell, but the wind just won’t play ball for the foreseeable future. Honestly, there’s nothing on the table that’s worth paddling out for. The whole 16-day window is a washout.
The issue is a relentless NNE wind howling across the place, keeping things messy. From Friday the 24th of July right through to the end of the month, we’ve got a solid 8ft to 8ft swell (NNE), but it’s all cross-shore wind with a strong breeze, churning up a lumpy cross-chop. The combined energy is moderate to strong, hitting 577 on Friday morning, building to 968 by Sunday morning, but it’s all for nothing with that wind. Even the water temp is sitting at 72°, which is about average for the time of year.
We drop into the first week of August, and the swell starts to fade. By the 1st of August, it’s down to 3ft from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, but again, that cross-shore wind is wreaking havoc. The energy is moderate (273), but the surf is still poor. The same story plays out day after day – a little bump here, a little pulse there, but always that cross-shore wind ruining the surface. The swell stays small, mostly under 5ft, right through to the 8th of August. The energy never really gets strong, staying in the low to mid 200s and 300s.
The bottom line? No standout days. No hidden gems. The wind is the enemy here, and it’s not letting up. The reef is there, but the conditions are just not surfable. I’d say save your energy and don’t bother checking the forecast for a while. It’s a rare blank stretch for this spot, but it happens.
Rusty.
