Right, pull up a stool. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Jameos del Agua over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for a decent paddle. The wind is a stubborn problem—it’s cross-shore or messy cross-shore nearly every day, and it’s blowing hard. That’s the story, start to finish. There’s a real gap here with no good options at all.
The first few days, from Friday the 10th through to the middle of next week, the swell is tiny and weak. You’re looking at swell heights of 0.7 ft to 4 ft, with combined energy mostly under 100 (29 to 313). That’s barely a ripple, and the wind is cross-shore, so it’s just bumpy, gutless slop.
Then, from around Wednesday the 15th, the swell starts to build. By the weekend of the 18th and 19th, it’s pushing 8 ft with moderate wave energy around 833 (784 on the afternoon). But again, the wind is a fresh to strong breeze out of the north, slapping it sideways. That’s a messy, lumpy mess. Not worth a wetty.
The last week of the window, from the 20th on, the swell gets bigger. It ticks up to 12 ft by the 24th and 25th, with strong to very strong wave energy (1693). That’s serious power. But the wind is still a strong breeze, cross-shore, from the north. The sea state is described as “strong cross-shore with messy cross-chop.” For a reef break like Jameos del Agua, that’s going to be a washing machine. It’s expert-only territory at that size, and with the wind, it’s more of a kitesurfing setup than a paddle-surfing one.
There’s no standout here. No glassy window, no clean offshore. The swell direction is mostly north-northeast, which is not the optimum north direction for this spot, and the period is short (mostly 5 to 9 seconds), so there’s no real shape or power to the waves. The water temp isn’t given, so no report on that.
Simply put, there’s nothing to recommend. Hang the boards up for a bit and wait for the forecasts to change. It can’t stay this messy forever.
Rusty.
