Table - best surf conditions forecast for Derecha de los Alemanes over the next 16 days.
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let me level with you about what’s happening at Derecha de los Alemanes over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I’ve got nothing to get excited about here. The forecast shows a long stretch of poor surf with cross-onshore winds messing things up almost every day. The water temp is sitting at about 72°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
We kick off on Tuesday, July 7th, with tiny little 1ft to 2ft swell from the north, period around 7 seconds, and a light to moderate cross-onshore breeze. It’s choppy and weak – the combined energy is only 34-46, which is nothing. That’s the story through Wednesday and Thursday: swell barely nudging 3ft, short-period junk, and onshore winds. Friday through Sunday the 12th stays similar with 3ft to 4ft swell from the NNW and NW, but the wind stays onshore or cross-onshore, and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions” across the board. The combined energy finally pushes up to 198-203 on Sunday the 12th, but it’s still messy.
From Monday July 13th through to Wednesday July 22nd, the swell hangs between 2ft and 5ft, mostly from the N, NNE, or NNW, with periods ranging from 5 to 9 seconds. Winds never let up – constant cross-onshore, often fresh breezes making things lumpy and choppy. The energy climbs at times, hitting 355 on Sunday July 19th, but the wind and short period ruin any chance of clean waves. There’s not a single standout session in this entire 16-day forecast. The break itself is a consistent beginner reef setup that’s exposed to NNW swell, and the optimum swell direction is from the NNW, so the direction could line up, but without offshore winds, it’s just not happening.
Honestly, this is a blank run for paddle surfing. If the wind stays cross-onshore and the surf stays messy, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than popping up on a shortboard. Forecasts can change, but right now I’d say put the board away and wait for a better window.
Stay tuned, Rusty.
