The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. Let’s be real about this one. We’ve got one spot to look at for the next couple weeks, and it’s a bust.
The whole 16-day window is a blank. No good surf. Not a single day worth paddling out. Starting Friday the 24th of July, we’ve got a solid 10-day stretch of onshore winds that are just going to ruin everything. The swell is there, around 6 feet on Friday, but it’s short period, about 7 seconds, and with a 22 mph wind blowing cross-onshore, it’s a total mess. Surf quality is poor.
The only break we’ve got is Derecha de los Alemanes, a reef that’s consistent and exposed to the north-northwest. Water temp is 72°, which is right on the money for this time of year. The wave energy is moderate at best, topping out around 462 on Sunday the 26th, but that doesn’t mean a thing with the wind ruining it. The wind stays cross-on from the north-northeast the whole time, between 12 mph and 22 mph. It’s just not worth it.
We do see a little change around the 1st of August – the swell swings to the northwest and the period picks up to 10 seconds, but the wind is still cross-on. The swell drops to around 3 feet, weak, and the energy is weak too, between 157 and 249. Still no good.
After that, from the 3rd of August, it’s more of the same. The swell bumps back up to 4 feet on the 4th, but it’s short period again, 8 seconds, and the wind is just relentless. The whole 16 days is a total washout. The spot is consistent, so it won’t stay this bad forever, but for now, save your gas.
Signing off, Rusty.
