The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break down the 16-day window for Totoritas, a point break that is exposed to the south-west swell. This spot is a fairly consistent intermediate wave, but it’s a persistent offender for tricky conditions. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
The first week is a real struggle. There’s really no good surf on offer at all through the first 13 days, with a long stretch of poor surf conditions and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds. The surf is tiny, from 1 ft to 3 ft, and the wave energy is mostly weak to moderate, with the combined energy hanging around 140 to 448 (moderate). The swell direction is consistently from the SW, which is the optimum for this spot, but the wind is constantly killing it. The only bright spots are some glassy conditions on Sunday morning August 2nd and Monday morning August 3rd, but the swell is only 1 ft and 2 ft respectively, and the water is flat. You’d be catching little knee-high slop. The period is between 11 and 14 seconds, which is a decent groundswell, but there’s just not enough size.
After a long, dry run, things finally look promising on the 14th of August. Friday morning the 14th is the standout. The wind is glassy and light from the S at 3 mph, which is perfect for a point break. The swell is 2 ft from the WSW, with a very long period of 17 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy is 225 (moderate). The guidance says “expect good surf conditions” and that’s exactly what you want to hear. It’s small, but for a point break, that long-period glassy south-west swell will produce clean, rippable waves. The afternoon is more marginal with onshore wind, so hit the morning session. Crowds are possible at Totoritas, but with dawn patrol you’ll be sweet.
The rest of the 16-day outlook after that is back to poor conditions, with dropping swell and onshore winds. The periods stay long, but the size is too small to get excited about.
So, bottom line: the first 13 days are a washout. Keep your board in the bag. Set your alarm for the 14th of August, dawn patrol at Totoritas. That’s your one and only shot.
