The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk about Porto Batel over the next couple weeks. The first part is pretty forgettable, but there are a couple of mornings that'll get your heart pumping—especially around Sunday the 6th and then again on Sunday the 13th. Water temp is about 67.5°, right where it should be for early September.
Thursday the 3rd morning is ridable but nothing special—small 3.6ft swell from the NNW with a short 7-second period, light offshore from the NE keeping it clean, but no power. That afternoon the swell drops to 3ft and the period shortens to 6 seconds—poor, don't bother.
Friday the 4th is flat and choppy. Both sessions have only 2.3ft of WNW swell at 8 seconds with cross or cross-off winds. Saturday the 5th morning is a bit better—2.6ft WNW at 9 seconds, light cross-off, still average. The afternoon has a weird one: only 1.6ft but a super-long 15-second period, giving decent energy. That combo is marginal and tricky on a point.
Sunday the 6th morning—this is good. Swell comes up to 4.3ft from the NNW at 12 seconds, light cross-off from the N, clean, with moderate energy. The point should have nice lines. Afternoon drops off and wind picks up to 16 mph, so morning is best.
Monday the 7th holds some size—4.6ft WNW at 12 seconds in the morning, but moderate north winds make it bumpy. Still enough energy to be worth a look. Afternoon is poor.
Tuesday the 8th sees swell hit 5.9ft in the morning, then 6.9ft in the afternoon, both from the NNW but with short 7–9 second periods and fresh north winds (19–22 mph). That's big and messy—expert-only, and not good quality.
Wednesday the 9th through Thursday the 10th are marginal—swell around 4–6ft but winds strong and periods short.
Friday the 11th morning—glassy! Light NW breeze, 2.3ft from the NNW at 11 seconds, energy low. Tiny but clean. Afternoon gets choppy.
Saturday the 12th is poor onshore.
Now the standout: Sunday the 13th morning. A deep groundswell—3.3ft from the NNW with a
