The Lowdown
Alright, grab your wettie and let’s talk about KM-200 – Totoritas. It’s a point break, fairly consistent, but exposed to that southwest groundswell. The water is running at about 68°, which is a full 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a big deal, so you can probably ditch the booties and maybe even the hood.
We're looking at a bit of a slow start here. The next couple of mornings have some small southwest swell pushing in around 2ft to 3ft, but it’s short-period stuff, and the winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore. It’s not going to be pretty. The wave energy is weak to moderate at best (390, 311), and the surf quality is just marginal. Honestly, it’s going to be a bit of a grovel for the first few days. There’s a window on Thursday morning with clean, light offshore wind, but the swell is still small.
The weekend ahead, from the 12th to the 13th, is looking meh. Swell drops off to 2ft to 2ft, and the period is short, around 8 to 12 seconds. The energy is getting weak (119-185). It’s not going to be a complete flat spell, but it’s gutless and onshore. Not worth getting too excited about.
There’s a bit of a pulse of longer-period energy early next week, around Monday the 14th, but it’s small – 1ft to 2ft with some 17-18 second groundswell. The energy is still on the lower end of moderate (240-284). This has more potential to be clean and lined up, but the size just isn't there for a standout.
The rest of the second week just kind of fades out. From Wednesday the 16th onwards, the swell stays in the 1ft to 2ft range, with the majority of the time being poor surf conditions and weak energy. By the 22nd and 23rd, we are looking at very weak energy readings (84-105) and pretty much a flat, blown-out situation. The long-range stuff from after the 21st is so small and weak that it's not even on the radar.
To be honest, there are no true standouts in this 16-day window. If you're desperate, the Thursday morning (11th) at Totoritas might be your best bet with that light offshore wind and a bit of a longer period swell, but keep your expectations low. It’s going to be a quiet couple of weeks, so maybe it’s a good time to wax your other boards or go for a paddle.
