The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break it down for Jameos del Agua.
First ten days or so? Mostly a washout. You’ve got north swell running, but the wind is cross or cross-onshore most of the time, so it’s lumpy and uninviting. The one real shining moment is Monday, September 21st and Tuesday, September 22nd. A long-period groundswell from the NNW shows up, with waves around 3 ft to 5 ft and a period of 15 to 16 seconds. That’s a nice groundswell – more energy and better shape, but on a reef like this, those long-period swells can run a little straight, so you’ll need to pick your takeoff spot. Winds are light and cross-offshore on Monday, so the surface will be glassy. The combined energy hits 1082 on Monday afternoon, which is moderate to strong. That’s your best bet, no question.
After that, the wind turns onshore again and it’s mostly choppy and messy for the rest of the run. Thursday the 24th offers a tiny clean window with 3 ft NNW swell, but it’s nothing to write home about. Crowds are often at this spot, so don’t expect to have it to yourself. Water temp is average for this time of year.
Not a kite-surfing kind of setup – the good moments are clean and surfable.
Rusty.
