The Lowdown
Alright, let me break down what we've got for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a tough run for this area. There's a long dry spell with hardly anything rideable. Most of the time, the wind is just messing things up, blowing cross-shore or cross-onshore, and the ocean’s got a real lumpy, chopped-out feel to it. The wave energy hangs around in the moderate range for a while, but those poor surf conditions just keep rolling in. You're looking at a gap of nearly a week before anything even starts to look a little interesting.
Let's talk about Tuesday morning, September 8th. That's the one window that stands out. It's not big, but it might just be the best we see. Head to Derecha de los Alemanes. It's a reef break, exposed to the north-northwest swell which is what's hitting it here. We'll see a small 4ft swell coming from the north, and the wind will be coming from the east-northeast, giving us some cross-offshore conditions. That should clean things up nicely. The water's about average for this time of year. The combined energy sits at 356 (moderate), but the biggest selling point is that clean face. The period's a short 8 seconds, so it'll be a bit weaker and more rolling, but with calm wind, it'll be a lot better than the rest of the week. It's a consistent beginner reef, so it won't be too hectic, but do keep in mind that crowds are possible here.
That's really your only shot worth paddling out for. The rest of the fortnight is pretty much a no-go with the wind always on it, so if you don’t make it out on the 8th, you’re waiting a long time. After the 8th, it’s right back into messy, onshore junk through the weekend and into the next week.
