The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up at Las Piscinas over the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there’s a couple of windows that’ll get the heart pumping.
Overall, the pattern is full of northerly wind, which is straight onshore for this reef setup, and that's a real buzzkill. The first few days are a write-off, no use paddling out in that.
We’re gonna see a gap of constant poor conditions until Monday, the 14th of September. That’s our first real glimmer of hope. The morning is looking magic—glassy with a clean 4ft swell from the NNE, and the energy is moderate (287). But the real standout is Monday afternoon. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and we get a solid 2ft groundswell from the NNW with a long 12-second period. That’s a 266 combined energy reading for a reef break like this; it’s going to be clean, lined up, and perfect for an intermediate. Just a heads up, the water temp is sitting around 75°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Tuesday the 15th drops off again with cross-onshore winds, so we’re back to waiting.
Keep your eye on Saturday the 19th of September. That afternoon session is another cracker. The wind goes glassy again, and we’ve got a 4ft swell from the north with a 9-second period (278 energy). This is a real standout for the period—clean conditions, and that north direction is right in the sweet spot for the break.
After that, things get ordinary again with onshore winds and choppy conditions through to the end of the forecast. The final few days from the 22nd onwards see some longer period groundswells, but that cross-onshore wind just kills it. Not worth the paddle.
So, in short: the standouts are Monday 14th afternoon and Saturday 19th afternoon. Get in the water then, and you’ll be smiling.
