Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, it’s a tough stretch. We’ve got a solid 13 days with nothing but poor surf conditions and cross-shore winds messing up the face. The swell is there, hanging around 4 ft to 6 ft from the ENE, but the wind is just never giving us a break. The water is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The best we’ve got lands on Wednesday, July 22nd. That morning, La Punta de Las Caracas is looking like the only real standout. We’ve got a clean 5 ft swell from the ENE with a short period of 7 seconds, so it’s a bit of a choppy, windswell setup. The combined energy is moderate at 204, but the key here is the wind easing off to a light breeze from the ESE, giving us cross-off conditions. That’s going to clean the face right up, making it the most surfable window in the entire 16-day forecast. It’s a point break and fairly consistent, so if you’re an intermediate, this is your window. Keep in mind, crowds are sometimes a thing here, so don’t expect it to be empty.
After that morning, it’s back to the grind. The wind picks up again, and we’re back to poor surf conditions through to the end of the period. The swell drops right off, with energy dipping below 130, and the period stays short. It’s a real bummer, but that Wednesday morning is the one to circle.
Rusty.
