Quimixto Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's cooking in the bay.

We've got a solid run of surf coming up at Quimixto, but it's a bit of a mixed bag. The first few days are on the smaller side, but the real story is the long period groundswell that's going to be pulsing in. The water is running at 88°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the wetsuit at home.

The standout window kicks off on Thursday morning, the 10th. We're looking at a clean 4ft swell from the southwest, with a 16-second period giving it some real grunt. The combined swell energy is a solid 885 (moderate) and the wind is glassy from the ESE. This is your classic early morning session, and it should be firing. The reef at Quimixto will handle that long period swell beautifully.

Friday morning, the 11th, is another good call with 4ft of SW swell at 15 seconds and glassy conditions from the NE. The energy is still there at 603 (moderate). It's a touch smaller than Thursday, but still clean.

After that, the weekend drops off a bit. Saturday and Sunday are smaller, with swell dipping to 3ft to 3ft. Sunday morning the 13th is glassy with 3ft, but it's a waiting game.

The next big push comes early the following week. Tuesday morning, the 15th, we see 4ft of SSW swell at 16 seconds, with a glassy NE wind. The energy is building to 718 (moderate).

The real gem of the second week looks like Wednesday morning, the 16th. We've got 4ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, combined energy at 947 (moderate), and glassy conditions from the ENE. This is another top-tier morning session.

Thursday morning, the 17th, is also worth a mention with 4ft of SSW swell, 14-second period, and glassy SSW wind. Energy is at 886 (moderate).

Then we get a run of excellent mornings. Friday the 18th is glassy and calm with 3ft of SW swell, but the period jumps to 19 seconds, and the energy is 884 (moderate). Saturday the 19th is also glassy, with 3ft of SW swell at 18 seconds and energy at 923 (moderate). Sunday the 20th is the biggest of the run, with 4ft of SW swell, a 19-second period, and energy hitting 1075 (strong). The NE wind is glassy again. This is a long-period groundswell, so it's best here at the reef.

The pattern continues into the next week, with Monday morning the 21st offering 4ft of SW swell, but it's cross-on, so not as clean. Tuesday the 22nd is another glassy morning with 4ft of SW swell at 16 seconds and energy at 872 (moderate).

Overall, the best bets are the glassy mornings. The crowds at Quimixto can be present sometimes, but on these weekdays, you should find a few waves to yourself. The swell direction from the SW and SSW is right in the wheelhouse for this break.

Signing off, Rusty.
