The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s just be straight about it – we’re looking at a pretty bleak run ahead on Lourdata or Lourdas Beach. The first proper surfable wave we see doesn’t show up until Friday, September 25th. That’s a long gap. For over a week the ocean is basically a bathtub – tiny wind slop and nothing with any drive. The water temp right at the start is a super unusual 83°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but with barely a ripple you won’t be needing a wetsuit anyway.
Friday the 25th morning is the one real standout here. It’s clean, calm, and glassy – the kind of morning you wake up early for. A solid 7ft swell from the NW with a period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 533 (moderate to strong energy). That’s the best we’ve got. It will be a bit full and a little disorganised as it hits this exposed SW-facing beach, but those sets will have some push. It won’t be a beginner wave though – over 8ft isn’t an issue here, but at 7ft it’s not a log day. The wind stays calm and offshore so expect it to be clean. For the afternoon, the breeze turns cross-onshore and the swell drops back to 5ft, so make the most of the morning glass.
After that, Saturday the 26th looks average with a weaker 5ft swell and cross-on winds – maybe something for a longboard if you’re really keen, but nothing to write home about. Sunday the 27th has cleaner conditions but the swell is down to 3ft with 80 energy and a 7 second period – weak, short-period and gutless.
Bottom line: unless you’re waiting for that Friday morning window, don’t hold your breath. It’s a long flat stretch with one real chance. Maybe that’ll change in the next update.
Rusty.
