The Lowdown
Alright, this is a rough one. I’m looking at the 16-day window for Paco D’arcos, and I gotta be straight with you—there’s next to nothing on offer. The entire forecast period is a bust. From Monday the 27th of July right through to Tuesday the 11th of August, every single session is labeled as poor surf conditions. That’s a solid 16-day gap with no real surf to speak of. The swell energy is essentially zero for most days, and when it does register, it’s tiny—like 0.3ft to 1ft at best, with weak combined energy readings (3 to 30).
We’re looking at a point break that’s already inconsistent, and this stretch proves it. The only real movement comes from offshore winds, which are nice and clean, but without any swell to work with, it’s just a pretty, flat ocean. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there. Honestly, if you’re a surfer, there’s nothing to get excited about. This area tends to have blank runs like this, so it’s not a shock. Forecasts can change, but right now, the only thing blowing is the wind.
