Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here, and I've got to level with you. The outlook for Derecha de los Alemanes for the next 16 days is a real heartbreaker. We've got a consistent run of swell, sure, but the wind is an absolute deal-breaker for regular surfing. The whole period is a washout.

Starting from this Saturday, July 11th, we're looking at a tiny 2ft swell from the north, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined swell energy is weak at 34. The water is a pleasant 71°, which is about normal for this time of year. But the wind is blowing cross-on from the NNE at 6 mph, and the report is calling it "poor surf conditions" from the get-go. This pattern just doesn't let up. The swell builds through the week, and by Thursday the 16th, we're seeing 5ft from the north-northeast, with the combined energy climbing into the moderate range at 230. By the second weekend, July 18th and 19th, we get some proper size – 6ft to 6ft from the north – and the energy is strong, hitting around 390 and 525. The period is a bit better too, around 8 to 9 seconds.

But here's the constant, gut-wrenching problem, and it's the same story every single day: the wind. It's almost exclusively a fresh to moderate cross-onshore breeze, blowing at 16 to 22 mph. On a few mornings, like Sunday the 12th and Monday the 13th, we see a "gentle cross-shore" from the NNE, but it’s still not offshore, and the surf is still rated as poor. The report is consistently labeling every single session as "poor surf conditions". With that relentless cross-onshore wind, that north swell is just going to turn this exposed reef into a lumpy, choppy mess.

With the swell hitting over 5ft on the 17th and climbing to 7ft by the 20th of July, and with that strong, onshore wind, the setup at Derecha de los Alemanes is looking a whole lot more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing. You'd be fighting a stiff cross-onshore breeze and chop, which is no fun on a surfboard.

So, I'm sorry to say it, but there are zero standout days for a surf here. It’s a complete blank run for the full 16-day period. This is one of those stretches where you either sit it out and hope the wind shifts, or you hang up the board and grab a kite. Forecasts can change, but for now, it's a solid miss.

Rusty.
