The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Playa de Robayera over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the first week is a tough one. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions starting now and running right through until the morning of the 20th of August. That’s over a week of flat, weak, or messy waves. The water temperature is sitting at 71°, which is right about average for the time of year, so at least the dip won’t be a shock.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of the 21st of August. The swell picks up to 6 ft from the NNW with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 822 (moderate to strong). The wind is cross-shore and gentle, so it’ll be a little choppy but rideable. This is for the bigger, more experienced crew though – 6 ft is getting up there. The break is a river mouth, so that longer period will work well.
The standout window, and the one I’m circling on the calendar, is the morning of the 27th of August. That’s the one. We’ve got a solid 7 ft NW groundswell, period of 8 seconds, and combined energy of 545 (moderate to strong). But the real magic is the wind: glassy. Dead flat, offshore. That’s going to make for clean, peeling waves at Playa de Robayera. The swell direction is exactly what this spot wants (NW), so expect proper shape. Now, 7 ft is expert territory – this is not for the groms or the weekend warriors. This is for the crew who know what they’re doing. The morning looks epic, but the afternoon falls apart with a strong onshore, so get in early.
The rest of the second week stays small and mostly average. The morning of the 25th of August offers a glimmer with 4 ft NW and glassy conditions, but it’s nothing to write home about. The 26th of August morning is similar, glassy but tiny at 2 ft. The real gold is that 27th morning session.
So to wrap it up: the first week is a write-off. The 21st of August morning is a decent option for the strong paddlers, but the absolute standout is the morning of the 27th of August. Glassy, solid, and clean. Set your alarm.
Rusty.
