The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be real about the surf outlook for Punta Xarraca over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow burn, but there’s a chance of a decent pulse if you’re patient.
Right off the bat, we’re looking at a stretch of flat, poor conditions. From Sunday the 9th through to Monday the 17th, it’s going to be bumpy with no real swell to speak of. You’ll see clean, glassy mornings with light winds, but it’s all for nothing without any waves. The water’s running about 3° warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s like a bathtub out there, but you’ll just be floating around. This break is inconsistent at the best of times, so a blank run like this isn't totally out of the ordinary.
Now, here’s the spark. The real interest kicks off on Tuesday the 19th. The morning is the standout. We’ve got a clean 6ft of NW swell pushing in, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy of everything heading this way is reading 362 – that’s moderate, but it’s the most we’ve seen by a long shot. This is a beach and reef setup here, so that shorter period won’t be a problem. The wind is light and cross-off from the WSW, so it should be pretty clean. Even though it drops to 5ft in the afternoon, that morning window is the best on offer. Just be aware, this spot can get crowded, so get out there early.
After that, it fades fast. Thursday the 20th sees the swell drop to a dribble, and then it’s back to the flatness for the rest of the week. The energy just disappears, with readings dropping to single and double digits. Nothing else in this 16-day window comes close. So, the call is simple: mark your calendar for the 19th. The long-range promise is there, but as always, keep an eye on the sky. It’s been flat for a while, so this could be our one shot.
Stay salty,
Rusty
