The Lowdown
Alright, it’s Rusty here. Let’s break down what we’re seeing for the next couple of weeks. It ain't pretty.
For the vast majority of this 16-day window, Derecha de los Alemanes is going to be a write-off. The wind is blowing out of the north, right into the spot as a cross-onshore, and it's just ruining everything. We've got wave heights, but they’re all short-period, choppy junk. The wave energy is weak to moderate, sitting around 72, 81 and 149, so there's no power. The water temp is pretty normal for this time of year.
We're looking at a long stretch of nothing. Starting Friday, September 4th, all the way through to Sunday, September 13th, it’s all "poor surf conditions." The swell period is short, mostly 5 to 8 seconds, with some longer period swells coming through that the wind just chops up. Combined wave energy does get into the mid to high hundreds, like 387 on Monday, but it's accompanied by a fresh 30 km/h wind. Honestly, with that persistent north wind, it looks like a better bet for kite surfing than paddling out.
There is one tiny window. On Monday morning, September 14th, the wind drops to a light breeze from the north-northeast, giving us a light cross-shore. Swell is 1.0m from the north with an 8-second period, and the combined energy is 271. The forecast calls it "marginal." It's not going to be good, but it's the only time in the whole 16 days where the wind isn't destroying the surface. If you are really desperate for a paddle, that Monday morning is your only option, but don't expect much.
After that, it's right back into the same story. Moderate to strong cross-onshore winds, chop, and waves in the 1.0m to 1.3m range with combined energy in the 200s. It stays that way right through to Saturday, September 19th.
This is one of those periods where the area just goes quiet. It happens. Forecasts can change, but for now, you're better off finding something else to do for the next couple of weeks.
Rusty.
