The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Tough stretch ahead for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got one main spot in the mix, Derecha de los Alemanes, but it’s looking like a battle. Water temp is around 73°, which is about normal for the season, so at least you’ll be comfy in a spring suit.
From the get-go, Sunday the 2nd of August, it’s already messy. A small 2ft swell from the west-northwest with a 9-second period, but the wind is cross-on from the north at 12 mph, churning it up. The wave energy is weak (134), and conditions are poor. That sets the tone for the whole run.
Through the first week, from Sunday through Saturday the 9th, we get a few bumps in swell size, hitting 5ft by Friday the 7th, but the wind stays stubbornly cross-on from the north or north-northeast, often 15 to 19 mph. The waves are lumpy and choppy, with periods short at 6 to 8 seconds. The combined energy builds to a moderate 352 on Friday morning, but that’s all height and no quality.
Second week, from Sunday the 10th, it’s more of the same. Swell hangs around 3ft to 6ft, period stretches to 7 or 8 seconds, but the wind is still a cross-on 12 to 19 mph. The energy peaks at 370 on the afternoon of the 16th of August, moderate, but still poor conditions. The break is a consistent reef, beginner-friendly, but the wind never lets up.
No standout days here. The whole 16-day window is a washout for quality. The wind is just never offshore, and the swell direction is mostly from the north, which is cross-on for this spot. The reef needs that southeast offshore to clean up, and we don’t get a sniff. A few mornings with lighter winds might be the least worst bet, but don’t expect much.
Rusty.
