The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Playa de Robayera. Straight up, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for anyone keen on a proper paddle. This is a river mouth setup, so it's always a bit fickle, but the next 16 days are mostly a write-off. We've got a long stretch of small, weak, and messy conditions, with only a couple of fleeting moments that might be worth a soggy look.
The first glimmer doesn't come until Thursday, the 6th of August. We see a pulse of swell from the NNW coming in at 3ft, but with a short period of 8 seconds. The energy is moderate (154), but it’s blowing a cross-shore breeze from the ENE at 9 mph, so it's going to be choppy and bumpy. Honestly, it’s a bit of a mess.
Friday morning the 7th of August is the first real chance to get wet. The wind drops right out, going glassy from the ENE at just 3 mph. We’ve got a small 2ft swell from the NNW, but the period is short at 7 seconds. The water temp is about average for the time of year. It’s surfable, but you’ll be working for it. The energy is weak (56), so don't expect any punch. Still, a glassy river mouth is a beautiful thing, even if it’s small.
The next notable morning is Saturday the 15th of August. We’ve got a 3ft swell from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds and a moderate combined energy of 207. The wind is light from the ENE at 6 mph, just a light cross-shore. It’s flagged as marginal, but it’s the closest thing to a proper wave we’ll see in the whole window. The swell direction is straight out of the NW, which is the optimum direction for this spot. This is your best bet, but tread carefully.
Then on Monday the 17th of August, we get another glassy morning with a 3ft swell from the NW. The wind is light from the N at 3 mph, and it’s got moderate energy (108). It’s surfable, but the period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit weak and lumpy.
Overall, it’s a tough stretch. The 15th of August morning is the standout, but even then, it’s nothing to write home about. For the rest of the time, you’re looking at waist-high slop and onshore chop. If you’re desperate, you might get a few on the glassy mornings, but don’t hold your breath. This is a classic case of the forecast looking better for the kite surfers than for us.
Rusty.
