The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming up at Playa de Tranqueru. We've got a bit of a mixed bag over the next couple of weeks, but there are a couple of mornings that are worth marking on the calendar.
The first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Thursday morning, the 10th of September. We're looking at a clean 5ft swell from the NNW with a 10-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the ESE at 3 mph, which is key – it’s going to keep the faces tidy. The combined wave energy is moderate at 397. It’s not a massive day, but it's a solid, surfable option to start with.
Things get a bit more interesting on Friday morning, the 11th. The swell drops to 3ft from the NW, but the wind goes glassy. Dead calm, 3 mph from the ESE. That’s the kind of morning that’s all about quality over quantity. The wave energy is moderate (154). It won't be huge, but with those conditions, you can bet it’ll be fun.
After that, we hit a slump. Saturday the 12th through Thursday the 17th is pretty quiet, with inconsistent swell and mostly onshore or cross-shore winds making a mess of things. The standout in this period is Thursday morning, the 17th of September. We get another glassy session with a clean 4ft swell from the NNW. The wind is a light 3 mph from the NE, so it’ll be smooth. This one has good energy (333) for the size.
Looking further ahead, there’s a bit of a pattern change for the morning of Sunday the 20th of September. A clean 4ft NW groundswell with a nice 11-second period lines up with glassy SSW winds at 3 mph. That's a proper clean morning with moderate energy (334). Then things get wild on Monday the 21st. A huge 13ft to 15ft NNW swell rolls in with massive energy (3665 to 3737). The morning is glassy, the afternoon gets a cross-on breeze. But honestly, at that size, this break is going to be completely out of control. This is for experts only, if anyone at all.
The last real highlight is Thursday morning, the 24th of September. We’re back to a clean, glassy morning with a 4ft NW swell and a long 11-second period. The wind is dead calm at 0 mph. This is about as perfect as it gets for a smaller day, with moderate energy at 370.
The Best on Offer:
If you’re picking one session, make it Thursday morning, the 10th of September for that clean cross-offshore wind and a decent first wave of the period. For the true connoisseur of clean conditions, Friday morning, the 11th of September and Thursday morning, the 24th of September are top tier for small, glassy waves.
Remember, this is a consistent spot, so if it’s flat for a few days, it won’t last. The water temp is sitting at 70°, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Overall, some good windows, just need to be patient.
Rusty.
