The Lowdown

Alright Rusty here, givin’ you the low-down in feet and miles.

For the full 16-day stretch at Derecha de los Alemanes, it’s a rough ride. It’s a consistent reef break exposed to the swell, best when the swell’s coming from the NNW. The water’s about 75°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.

Kickin’ off Monday the 31st of August, we got 4ft to 5ft swell from the north, but it’s cross-onshore, choppy, and lumpy. Not worth your time. That carries through Tuesday the 1st and Wednesday the 2nd of September. Wednesday morning sees the swell hit 6ft with moderate energy (426), but the fresh cross-onshore breeze has it messy.

Thursday the 3rd of September the wind eases a little, but the swell’s dropping and conditions are still poor. Friday the 4th of September afternoon is your only real light in the tunnel – 3ft swell from the north, a light cross-offshore breeze making it clean. Energy is weak (135), but it’s rideable. That’s the best of a bad week.

After that, a gap. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th are back to choppy, cross-on slop. Swell’s 3ft to 4ft, short period, no good.

Monday the 7th of September brings a long-period, 12-second groundswell from the NNW, but the cross-on wind chops it up. Energy is moderate (317), but conditions are poor – a real shame for the reef.

From the 8th to the 15th of September, it’s the same story: cross-on and onshore winds with small swell, mostly 2ft to 5ft. Tuesday the 15th of September morning is marginal – 4ft from the north, light cross-on with a slight breeze, just barely surfable.

The only standout is that Friday the 4th of September afternoon. Clean, light wind, but tiny 3ft north swell with weak energy. If you’re jonesing for a paddle, that’s your best bet.

Otherwise, it’s a long blank stretch. And with that consistent cross-on wind, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing most days.

Rusty.
