The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the next couple of weeks for Playa de Tranqueru. Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet start. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much to write home about through the first week and a bit.
The water’s sitting around 69° which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but nothing crazy.
The first real chance to even think about a paddle comes on the morning of Sunday, August 9th. It’s glassy, clean as a whistle, with a tiny 3ft swell from the NNW. The energy is still weak (118), but it’s a surfable wave. Not a standout, just a bit of a teaser after a flat spell.
Then we get a bit more life on the morning of Tuesday, August 11th. Again, glassy conditions, with a 3ft NNW swell and moderate energy (200). It’s surfable, but still very ordinary. The wind is calm, so it’ll be clean, but the waves are nothing to get excited about.
The real highlight – and I mean the only one that’s got me buzzing – is the morning of Sunday, August 16th. The wind is dead calm, glassy as can be. The swell jumps to 6ft from the NW, with strong energy (305). This is a proper size for an intermediate, but it’s going to be a bit raw for beginners. The period is short, only 7 seconds, so it’s a windswell, which means it’ll be a bit lumpy and won’t have that long, clean line. It’s likely breaking a bit close to shore, but on a glassy day, it’ll be a load of fun. This is the best on offer.
Then on Monday, August 17th morning, we’ve got a bit more size – 6ft from the NNW – with a strong 550 energy. The wind is a light cross-offshore, which will keep it clean. The period is still short (8 seconds), so again, it’s a windswell, but it’ll be punchy and fun for anyone who’s comfortable in that size. The afternoon drops off a little and gets a bit cross-on.
After that, it fades out again. There’s a decent gap of nothing from the 18th onwards. So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off. The 11th gives you a tiny window, but the 16th and 17th are your best bets. The 16th morning is the standout for clean, glassy waves with some push.
Rusty.
