The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checkin' in with the local outlook for the Los Alemanes zone.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a grim stretch ahead. For the next two weeks, we're lookin' at a whole lot of nuthin' worth paddling out for. The wind is locked in from the north and northeast, howlin' right across the face of the swell, choppin' everything to bits. The swell itself is weak and short-period, just a messy, wind-blown sea state that's got no shape or power. The only glimmer of hope is a sniff of cleaner conditions right at the very end of the run, but even that's a marginal call.
For the first week, from Monday the 27th of July right through to the weekend, it's a write-off. The wind is a solid 12 to 18 mph from the north, blowin' straight onshore or cross-onshore, tearin' the surface apart. The combined energy is weak, barely crackin' a hundred (233) at its best, with a short, fat 8-second period. The swell is around 3 ft to 5 ft, but it's a total mess. It's all 'poor surf conditions' and 'choppy' – a real battle out there, not a reward.
We get a bit of a break on Monday the 5th of August. The wind finally swings around to the east-northeast, and we get a clean, cross-offshore breeze. The swell is still small, only 4 ft, and the energy is moderate (223). The wave comment says 'marginal' – and that's a fair call. It's the best of a bad lot, but it's still not a standout. For a beginner spot like Derecha de los Alemanes, that 4 ft with a clean face is about as good as it's gonna get in this window. The crowds are 'sometimes' a problem, so you might have company.
The middle of the month, around the 9th, 10th, and 11th of August, the swell actually bumps up to nearly 7 ft, and the energy gets strong up to 574. But the wind is howlin' again at 18-22 mph from the north, turning it into a full-on stormy mess. That's big, raw, blown-out junk. Only for the hardcore crew who don't mind a beating, or maybe it's a kite day.
So, the honest truth? There's no real standout window here. The only day that might be worth a look is Monday the 5th of August, and even that is a gamble. You want clean surf, but the swell is small. You want a bigger swell, it comes with a hurricane. That's the hand we're dealt.
Rusty, signing off.
