The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at what’s on the table over at Las Piscinas. This is a reef setup, exposed to the north, and it’s an intermediate-level wave. The water is sitting at 76° which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be comfy in a spring suit.
Honestly, the next 12 days are pretty grim. We’ve got swell running from Tuesday through to that Saturday the 12th, but the problem is the wind. It’s locked in from the north and northeast, and it’s blowing either onshore or cross-onshore at 9 to 16 mph, making everything choppy and messy. The combined wave energy during this stretch gets moderate (366 to 595) but the quality is just not there. The swell period is short, around 6 to 8 seconds, so it’s windswell – won’t be holding up well. There’s nothing worth paddling out for.
The only real blink of hope comes on Sunday, September 13th. The morning is looking glassy—light NNE breeze at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a clean 7 ft swell from the NNE at 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (485). This is the standout. That glassy window is going to give you the cleanest surf of the whole outlook, maybe a little fat on a reef but rideable for intermediates. The afternoon stays light with a NW cross-on, so still okay but not as clean.
After that, a bit of a drop-off. Monday the 14th is okay but gusty again, and by the 15th and 16th we see the swell drop to under 3 ft, with a longer period of 11 to 12 seconds but no decent wind. By then it’s just an afterthought.
So, in summary: the first 12 days are a write-off thanks to persistent onshore wind. Sunday morning the 13th is the one true window – glassy, 7 ft NNE swell. Don’t blink, or you’ll miss it.
