The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ in the water.
Well, I gotta be straight with ya – this stretch is lookin’ pretty tough. We’re talkin’ about Jameos del Agua, a reef setup that’s fairly exposed and likes the swell from the north. But for the next week and a half, it’s not really gonna get its act together. There’s a long gap of poor conditions right from the get-go. From Tuesday the 8th all the way into the weekend, it’s just cross-shore wind and lumpy, weak energy. The water’s at 75°F, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a bit of a surprise, but it doesn’t help the waves.
The first real glimmer comes on Sunday the 13th, but even then, it’s barely worth paddling out. The wind finally drops off – only 3 mph from the NE in the morning, turning light offshore from the east in the afternoon. That’s clean, but the swell is small: 4ft from the north at 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak (282), and the forecast is very marginal. You might catch a few knee-high lines if you’re desperate.
Monday the 14th morning actually offers the best window – light cross-onshore breeze from the SE, but the swell direction swings to the NNW with a 13-second period, giving you 2ft of long-period groundswell. That kind of period is better suited to this reef, but the size is tiny. The energy reading is 278, so still weak. It’s a long shot, but the cleanest option in this whole bleak outlook.
After that, the rest of the fortnight is all cross-shore wind, bumpy, and mostly weak energy readings under 250. Even by the 22nd and 23rd, the wind goes cross-offshore but the swell stays anemic – 3ft or less. Nothing stands out as a true standout here. If you want to surf Jameos, wait for a better long-range forecast. For now, it’s a lot of sitting and watching.
Stay patient.
