The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here, breaking it down. The next 16 days are looking like a tough stretch for clean surf. Swell is on the menu, but the wind is spoiling the whole buffet.

We’re talking about Jameos del Agua, a reef break that’s fairly consistent. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal, so you’ll be fine in a spring suit.

The issue is the wind. From Wednesday the 19th through the first week, it’s a constant cross-shore from the north and north-northeast, blowing 18 to 25 mph. That’s keeping the surface lumpy and choppy. The swell starts small, around 3 ft on Wednesday, but it builds. By Friday the 21st, we’re looking at 5 ft to 5 ft, but the wind is up to 18 mph and the period is a short, weak 6 to 7 seconds. The energy is low, not enough to make up for the wind.

The only thing that might get your attention is the swell that peaks right at the end of the first week into the second. Sunday the 27th and Monday the 28th see the swell jump to 8 ft to 8 ft from the north-northeast, with decent energy numbers. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit dumpy, but the bigger problem is the wind. It’s still a strong cross-shore, 18 to 25 mph, making it a lumpy mess. At 8 ft, this is strictly for experts, and with that wind, it’s going to be a battle. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

The second week is more of the same. Swell hangs around 5 ft to 7 ft, but the wind stays onshore or cross-shore from the NNE, 18 to 22 mph, with poor surf conditions all the way. The period stays short, never really getting above 8 seconds.

So, there’s no standout clean day. The best of a bad bunch is the big swell on the 27th and 28th, but only if you’re an expert who doesn’t mind a cross-chop beating. The rest of the run is a washout. The near-term forecast is reliable, and it’s not looking good. It doesn’t usually stay this poor for long, but this 16-day window is a dud.

Rusty.
