Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for this stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a grim outlook for the next week and a half. We’ve got a long, quiet run ahead with nothing worth paddling out for. From now through to around the 16th of July, every session is rated as poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny and wind is consistently onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s blown out and weak. The first ten days are basically a write-off for any kind of decent wave.
Things finally start to show some pulse from the 17th of July onward, but the wind remains a stubborn onshore to cross-onshore breeze, so the quality is still a letdown. The swell does build, but it’s all short-period, wind-driven junk. By the 19th of July (Sunday) and into the 20th, we’re seeing some proper size – 8.2 ft – but the period is still short at 9 seconds and the wind is howling onshore at 15-19 mph. The combined swell energy is massive, hitting over 1000 (1161) on the 19th afternoon, but it’s just a messy, chunky wall of whitewater. For a beginner-friendly reef like La Derecha de Almaciga (Tenerife), this is too big and too rough. Honestly, with that setup and those winds, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The water temp at the start is 72.3°, pretty normal for this time of year.
So, there are no standouts. No golden window. The only thing worth noting is that the swell does arrive, but the wind never cooperates. If you’re desperate, the least terrible window might be around the 24th and 25th of July, but even then it’s onshore and choppy. This is a blank run, plain and simple.
