The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a proper look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a solid run of surf ahead at Quatro-Once, kicking off from Monday the 7th of September through to Tuesday morning the 22nd. The first few days are a bit mixed in quality, but there are some absolute gems hiding in there.
The standout session without a doubt is Thursday the 10th of September in the morning. The swell is sitting at a clean 4 feet from the SW, with a long period of 15 seconds – that’s proper groundswell energy, and with 0 wind and glassy conditions, it’s gonna be pure silk. The combined energy is strong at 1006, so there’s plenty of push behind it. This is the bone-fide best session on offer for experienced surfers. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Right after that, Friday the 11th of September morning is another ripper. 5 feet of SW swell, 16-second period, and glassy easterly winds. The energy is still strong at 922. It’s a touch bigger, so still well within the fun zone, but that extra period will give it some serious glide. This is a close second to Thursday.
For a change of pace, Tuesday the 15th of September afternoon shapes up nicely with 3 feet of SW swell but an 18-second period – that’s very long period. Glassy, calm conditions, and combined energy of 522. The break is a point setup, so that long period will wrap in nicely and not just close out.
Through the second week, the swell drops off a bit but stays rideable. The mornings of Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th of September both offer clean 3 feet to 4 feet of SW swell with clean offshore winds. Good, dependable waves for a paddle.
A note on crowds – this spot is known to get busy sometimes, so for those prime glassy mornings, especially the standouts, get there early.
There’s a bit of a lull towards the 18th and 19th, with poor wind and messy conditions, but it picks back up with some glassy 2 feet to 3 feet of SW swell right through to the 22nd. Nothing huge, but clean and rideable.
