The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you. This is a tough run of forecasts for Derecha de los Alemanes.
The whole 16-day window is a write-off. There isn’t a single morning or afternoon where I’d point you to grab your board and go. The first few days (starting Wednesday the 22nd of July) are already a mess, and it just doesn’t let up. Wednesday the 22nd morning has a NNE wind blowing 19 mph, cross-onshore, on a 5 ft swell from the north with a short, weak 7-second period. The combined energy is barely moderate at 204, and the water temp is about 72°F with a 1°F anomaly – so normal for the time of year. But that’s where the good news ends. Conditions are poor, lumpy, and choppy.
Through Thursday and Friday it holds around 5 ft to 6 ft, but the wind stays fresh and cross-onshore, ruining any shape. Saturday the 25th gets a bit more size – 7 ft – but with the same messy wind, it’s just a bigger, bumpier disappointment. Energy climbs into the moderate range (up to 527 on Sunday the 26th), but wind hits 25 mph that morning, making it strong cross-onshore and messy. Not surfable.
From Monday the 27th onward, the swell slowly fades from 6 ft down to 3 ft by Thursday the 6th of August. The wind does ease slightly at times, but it always stays cross or cross-onshore, never getting clean. Periods sit at 6 to 8 seconds, so there’s no power or shape to get excited about.
The second week into early August brings no change. By the 6th of August, we’re seeing tiny 3 ft swell with a 5-second period and energy dropping to 121 – barely a ripple, and still cross-onshore. There is simply no standout day. None.
Look, this break is consistent in its exposure, but when the wind locks in from the north like this, it just doesn’t line up. If you’re a beginner, the 4 ft to 5 ft days are small enough, but the wind makes it a washing machine. This is one of those runs where the forecast can always flip, but right now, you’d be better off doing something else. I’d keep an eye on it – it won’t stay this poor forever.
