The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here with your La Paloma surf picture. We’ve got a solid stretch of swell on the way, so let’s break it down.
The next week and a half is looking good with a steady NNW groundswell. First real waves hit Sunday, September 13th. Early morning you’ve got clean 4ft waves from the NNW with a 12-second period and a light ENE cross-off breeze. The energy is solid at 447 (moderate). It’s a very consistent spot and the conditions are prime.
Monday, September 14th morning is the one to circle. We’re looking at glassy conditions with a smaller 3ft NNW swell, period at 11 seconds, and an easterly breeze that’s barely there. Energy drops to 204, but for a Monday morning, that’s a glassy, fun-sized session.
Tuesday the 15th is a dud with onshore winds and weak, poor surf, so skip it.
Things ramp up again from Wednesday the 16th. The swell builds, hitting 5ft on Wednesday afternoon and then really turning on. Thursday the 17th morning is another glassy beauty with 6ft NNW swell. Water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
The big show starts Friday the 18th afternoon and runs through Monday the 21st of September. Friday afternoon jumps to 7ft from the NNW with a 13-second period – that’s a proper long-period groundswell. Energy hits 2000 (strong). This is expert-level stuff for a beach break. For the pros, Saturday the 19th morning is near-perfect: 7ft, glassy, and that NNW swell is pumping. Energy is 1326 (very strong). Sunday the 20th morning is another big one with 7ft at 14 seconds and a clean cross-off breeze (1887 energy). These days are for the experienced crew.
After that peak, the swell fades. Monday the 21st still holds excellent 7ft waves (1657 energy) with clean conditions, and Tuesday the 22nd morning is a very good 5ft (681 energy) with glassy conditions.
From Wednesday the 24th the size drops off, and by Friday the 25th we’re looking at flat, poor conditions that last through to the end of the outlook on the 28th. A long flat spell after that big run.
La Paloma is a very consistent break, so the near-term forecast is reliable, and that big weekend swell is a promising bet even if the exact timing might shift a bit.
Hit those glassy mornings.
Rusty.

Information about the La Paloma Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Paloma provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Paloma can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Paloma surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (La Paloma) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for La Paloma may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
