The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Playa de Tres Piedras over the next 16 days.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, flat spell to start. There’s nothing worth paddling out for until we get into the second week. The first recommendation doesn’t pop up until Wednesday, September 9th, so you’re looking at a solid 8-day gap of tiny, weak waves and poor surf conditions. For a spot that’s usually consistent, that’s a bit of a bummer, but it tends not to stay this poor for long.
The water at Playa de Tres Piedras is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – not a huge deal, but nice if you’re in a spring suit.
When things finally wake up on Wednesday the 9th, we’re looking at a small pulse of swell from the WNW. The morning of the 9th gives us a clean 2ft of swell (combined energy of 20). The wind is cross-shore, so it’ll be a little bumpy, but at least it’s not blown out. The period is short at 5 seconds, so the waves will be a bit weak and soft – better for a longboard or a funboard than a shortboard.
The real standout of the whole outlook is Thursday, September 10th, in the morning. The swell drops to 2ft from the west, but the wind goes glassy – dead calm. That’s going to make for the cleanest, smoothest surface you’ll see all week. The wave energy is a bit low (18), but if you’re looking for a stress-free, glassy session, that’s your window. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, so no worries about it being too big.
Friday the 11th morning also looks promising with another glassy session and 2ft west swell (20 energy). That’s a solid second option if you miss Thursday.
After that, things get a bit messy again. Saturday the 12th morning has clean 2ft west swell (23 energy) with a light offshore wind, but the afternoon gets choppy. The following week (September 13th onwards) fades back into tiny, weak waves with long-period, low-energy pulses that just don’t have the juice.
Bottom line: If you’ve got a longboard and patience, wait for the mornings of Thursday the 10th or Friday the 11th. That’s the best we’ve got. The rest is a write-off.
Rusty.
