Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – looking at the next couple of weeks for the breaks around here, it’s a tough watch. The swell is never quite strong enough, and the wind is almost always blowing from the wrong direction for it to clean up. You’re looking at a run of poor conditions with next to no window for a proper surf.
Let's start with the only place on the cards: Derecha de los Alemanes. It's a consistent reef break, exposed to the swell, and it’s a beginner-friendly wave when it’s on.
Right now, Friday morning, we've got a 5ft swell from the north with a period of 9 seconds. The wave energy is moderate (334) but the wind is straight onshore from the NW at 6 mph. That’s a mess. That trend of onshore and cross-onshore wind sticks around all weekend. The swell slowly drops from 4ft on Saturday to 3ft on Sunday. The water temp is sitting at 71°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.
We then hit a real flat spell. From Monday the 6th of July right through until the end of the second week, the swell is tiny, mostly under 3ft, and the period is short—often down around 5 or 6 seconds. That’s weak, windswell junk. The wave energy drops into the double digits and low triple digits at best. Hard to get excited about anything here. The wind remains a relentless cross-onshore from the N or NNW, blowing anywhere from 9 to 19 mph. This keeps the surface choppy and lumpy.
There is a slight pulse of energy around the 14th and 15th of July with the swell bumping up to 4ft from the north, and the energy creeping above 100 (moderate), but the wind is still a fresh cross-onshore breeze at 16-19 mph. That kind of setup with a reef break and that much wind is more interesting for the kite-surfing crew than anyone on a paddle board. The wave quality stays marked as poor throughout the entire forecast period.
Honestly, there’s nothing worth paddling out for in this whole 16-day window. It’s a long, frustrating gap of poor conditions. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a blank run. I’d leave the board in the car and maybe go for a skate.
