The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get the story straight for Totoritas. A point break that needs energy from the SW to get going.
First things first – you’ll need patience. From right now right through until the afternoon of Thursday, August 28th, there is nothing doing. The swell is basically flat – 1 to 2 feet – with onshore winds and no power. That’s two days of fiddly nothing.
We start to see a pulse of energy on Friday morning, August 29th. Surf bumps up to about 4 feet out of the WSW, with a long 16-second period. But the wind is onshore, so it’s going to be lumpy. The energy is moderate (926), but the quality is poor. You can catch a wave, but it won't be pretty.
Saturday, August 30th, the swell holds around 4 to 5 feet from the WSW, with 14-16 second intervals. Winds are still onshore, light. The crowd potential is listed as 'sometimes'. You can find a spot in the lineup, but the wave shape will be average.
Now, the one real highlight, the best on offer, is Sunday, August 31st. Swell dips slightly to 4 to 5 feet from the SW, but the wind is onshore with a clear sky. The energy is moderate (383). It’s not epic, but given how quiet the week has been, this is your window. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
The second week of the forecast, from September 1st onwards, drops back into the 2 to 4-foot zone, with shorter 11-14 second periods. The wind is onshore most days. You’ll see small, weak lines on a few mornings, but nothing consistent or clean. It’s a long run of average.
Your best bet? The first weekend. Sunday looks the most promising, but keep your expectations in check.
