The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Derecha de los Alemanes in feet and miles per hour.
It’s a slow start. The first real chance to get wet is Monday the 14th of September. The swell is only about 2ft, but the wind goes glassy that morning with a clean NNW groundswell carrying a nice 13-second interval. Water temp is 75°, just a hair warmer than average for this time of year, nothing wild. That Monday morning window is the early standout – small but clean and uncrowded potential.
From Monday afternoon through to Sunday the 20th, the conditions turn rough. Wind stays cross-onshore, and the quality goes downhill. Even when the swell bumps up to around 5ft on Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th, it’s lumpy and fresh with short-period junk, so it’s not worth your time.
There’s a gap of several days with nothing worth recommending. The next decent window is Monday the 21st of September morning, with a small 2ft NNW groundswell at 12 seconds and cross-offshore wind keeping it clean. Small but clean.
Tuesday the 22nd shows a bigger pulse of energy – moderate wave energy around 506 – with a 3ft swell from the NNW at 14 seconds. The morning is marginal with some cross-shore chop, but it’s not terrible.
Thursday the 24th and Friday the 25th of September are the real highlights. Thursday morning is clean with cross-offshore wind and a 4ft north swell, though the period is short at 7 seconds. Friday morning is the standout: offshore wind from the ESE at 20 mph, clean lines, and a 4ft north swell. That Friday morning is the best of the lot. Then Friday afternoon throws in a 2ft WNW groundswell with a very long 15-second period and cross-offshore wind – clean, long walls, just small.
Saturday the 26th of September morning keeps the clean theme with cross-offshore wind and a 3ft WNW groundswell at 13 seconds.
After that, conditions drop off again into poor, small surf with cross-onshore wind.
Best bets: Monday the 14th morning for glassy tiny waves, and Friday the 25th morning for clean offshore conditions and the best size. Derecha de los Alemanes is a consistent reef break, good for beginners, but crowds can show up sometimes, so pick your moment.
