Milagro del Mar Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about what’s comin’ up in imperial.

We’ve got a real solid run on the cards for Milagro del Mar Point. This spot is an advanced-level point break, super consistent, and it loves a good south swell. Right now, the water’s sitting at a comfortable 85°, which is pretty much exactly what you’d expect for this time of year – no weirdness there.

The week kicks off proper on Saturday afternoon, August 29th. We’re looking at a solid 5ft SW groundswell, hitting that 16-second period – that's proper energy moving in. The combined swell energy is pumping at (1209). Add in a light cross-offshore breeze from the ESE at 6 mph, and you’ve got clean, lined-up walls. This is excellent, experienced-level surf.

Sunday morning, August 30th keeps the quality high. Clean 4ft SW swell with a moderate offshore from the ENE at 12 mph. It’s a bit smaller but still very, very good. Then Sunday afternoon is the real gem for this early run: the wind drops to a total glass-out – zero knots from the south – and that same 4ft SW groundswell is still holding. It doesn’t get any cleaner than that.

We see the swell dip a bit through the start of the week, with clean but smaller 4ft to 3ft waves on Monday and Tuesday mornings with offshore winds. Good for a longboard but not the standout period.

Then, hold onto your hats. Friday morning, September 4th is where it gets real interesting. A new pulse of 4ft SW groundswell at 17 seconds rolls in with a strong offshore breeze from the ENE. This is another absolute class session for the experienced crew. But the killer is Friday afternoon: 5ft of that clean SW swell, period still at 17 seconds, and the wind goes totally glassy again. This is the standout window – clean, powerful, low-crowd potential if you can get out there.

Saturday morning, September 5th keeps the dream alive with 5ft SW groundswell (16 sec) and a gentle offshore from the NE. It’s getting bigger, still excellent, but remember – at this size, it’s expert territory. The afternoons from here get a bit cross-on so mornings are the key.

The run continues through the second week. Sunday morning, September 6th offers clean 4ft waves. Monday morning, September 7th brings another clean 4ft set with offshore winds, but there's a risk of thunderstorms. Wednesday, September 9th through Friday, September 11th keeps offering clean, offshore mornings with 3-4ft SW swells. The confidence is decent here, a classic winter pattern settling in. The swell fades a bit towards the 13th with smaller 2-2ft waves, but still clean on the mornings.

The best call? Lock in Friday afternoon, September 4th, and Saturday morning, September 5th. That’s the heart of the run. Get after it.

Rusty.
