The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for the most part. We’re looking at a long run of poor surf conditions, with the wind howling from the north and northeast, just messing up the face of the waves. The swell is on offer, but it’s all cross-onshore and choppy, which is a recipe for frustration rather than fun.
The first real chance of anything worthwhile comes on Saturday, the 5th of September, at Derecha de los Alemanes. The wind finally swings around to the east, giving us a clean cross-offshore breeze. The swell is small at 3.9ft from the north, with a combined energy of 199 (weak), but it’s surfable. The waves will be clean, which is a huge plus after all the chop. This is the best window of the whole forecast, but keep expectations low – it’s not a classic.
There’s a teaser on the morning of the 8th of September, with another clean cross-offshore wind, but the swell is weak at 3.6ft and the period is a short 6 seconds, so there’s no real push. After that, it’s back to the same old story: cross-onshore winds and choppy bumpy water right through to the end of the 16-day window.
The last couple of days in the second week see the swell size creep up again, but the wind is fresh and onshore, so it’s a washout. The Thursday morning of the 10th of September has a moderate combined energy of 304, but it’s ruined by the cross-shore wind. The energy spikes to 828 on the 11th of September, but with a 18.6 mph cross-onshore wind, it’s just a lumpy, blown-out mess.
So, the one standout? That Saturday the 5th of September morning. It’s not big, it’s not epic, but it’s the cleanest wave we’ll see. If you’re desperate, go then. Otherwise, get the waxing done and wait for a better run.
