The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, and I've gotta be straight with you—this is gonna be a tough stretch for us at Playa de Tranqueru. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off, I'm afraid. There's not a single moment where the surf is worth paddling out for. The forecast keeps calling it "poor surf conditions" right through until August 16th, so don't hold your breath.
We start on Saturday, August 1st, with a tiny 2 ft swell from the NW, but it's coming in at a weak 8 seconds and the wind is cross-on from the ENE, making it messy. The combined wave energy is a paltry 60, so there's just no power behind it. The water temp is sitting at 69°, which is about average for the time of year, but that's about the only thing that's average—the waves are anything but.
It's a flat run for the next week. The glassy conditions on Sunday, August 2nd morning, with a 2 ft swell from the NNE, might look tempting, but it's only 5 seconds of period and the energy is a measly 40. It's barely a ripple. The same goes for those glassy mornings on August 3rd, 9th, 12th, and 13th—the swell is tiny, with heights between 1.0 ft and 2 ft, and the energy never gets above 65. It's frustrating, because the wind is perfect, but there's just no swell to work with.
There's a slight bump in energy around August 6th, with the afternoon hitting 3 ft from the NW and a combined energy of 121, but it's still only 8 seconds, and the wind is cross-on, so it's just a choppy mess. The same happens on August 14th with a 4 ft swell from the north, but again, the period is a weak 6 seconds and the energy is only 121. It's not surfable, and honestly, with that short-period, wind-affected swell, it might be more interesting for the kite surfers than for us.
We do get a couple of days with a longer 10-second period from the NW on August 16th, and the energy hits 121, but the swell is only 2 ft. It's a classic case of no size. The whole period is a blank run, and given the break is "fairly exposed" and "consistent," it's a bit of a shock, but it can happen. Forecasts change, so don't lose hope, but for now, I'd say save your energy and wait for the next window.
Rusty.
