The Lowdown
Right, folks. Rusty here, and I've gotta be straight with you about this stretch. Looks like we're in for a long, dry spell. For the next sixteen days, the surf at La Derecha de Almaciga just isn't cooperating. The whole forecast is a run of poor surf conditions with no real recommendations to get excited about.
From this Saturday, the 1st of August, right through to Sunday, the 16th, it's pretty grim. The first week is a write-off. We're looking at small, weak swell, mostly around 2 ft to 5 ft, and the wind is a constant problem. It's blowing onshore from the north and northeast almost the entire time – not what you want for a classic reef break. The swell periods are short, mostly 6 to 10 seconds, giving us weak, disorganised waves. The combined energy is weak to moderate all the way through, with figures like 225 and 180 (weak to moderate energy) in the first few days. It's just messy.
Things don't really get any better into the second week. The swell does try to pick up from the 14th onwards, getting up to 7 ft to 7 ft from the NE (combined energy around 539 and 593 (strong wave energy)), but that's about the only change. The wind stays relentless from the north. For a beginner-friendly reef that likes a NW swell, this entire period is a total bust. This kind of blank run is just normal for this area when the winds set in like this.
Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now with all that constant wind. There's just nothing here for a surfer.
Rusty.
