The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks. I’ve been staring at the charts for our spot, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough run. The swell is coming, but the wind is just not playing ball at all.
We’re looking at Majanicho, a reef and point setup. This is a wave that loves a clean north swell, but it’s an expert-only zone at the best of times, and it’s almost always a bit of a crowd. The water’s sitting at 72°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The whole outlook is a bit of a heartbreaker. The wind is hammering from the north or north-northeast, blowing straight onshore or cross-onshore, day after day. That means chop, lumps, and generally poor surf conditions. Even though the swell energy is moderate, hitting values between 109 and 222 in the first week, the wind just ruins it. The wave comment for every single session is "poor surf conditions," and I’m not gonna argue with the data.
There’s a bit of a rise in swell energy around August 5th, with the combined energy jumping to 366 and then climbing to over 500 by the 6th. The swell height pushes up to 7 ft, and the period stretches to 8 seconds. But with the wind still screaming from the NE and NNE at 19 mph, it’s going to be a lumpy, messy, cross-onshore nightmare. That’s 7 ft of junk. For a point break like this, that wind is a deal-breaker.
The worst of it might be the 10th and 11th of August. The swell is pumping 6 ft to 7 ft, and the combined energy is a solid 441 to 601, but the wind is up to 25 mph. That’s strong breeze territory, straight onshore. It’s going to be a washing machine. For a beach break or a beach-and-reef setup, you’d be looking at kite surfing conditions, not paddling. This is just dangerous and ugly.
So, what’s the call? Honestly, there isn’t a single standout session in this 16-day window. It’s a long, frustrating gap of poor surf. If you’re desperate, you could try and find a sheltered nook, but for clean, rippable waves at Majanicho, we’re waiting for the wind to change. Until then, keep your board waxed and your hopes up – it can’t stay this bad forever.
Rusty.
