The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch. We're looking at a long, drawn-out period of tiny to flat surf with onshore winds messing things up most of the time. There are no standouts here, so don't get your hopes up for any kind of epic session.
We're talking about Ristorante (or La Toscana), a reef break that needs a good SW groundswell to wake up. For the next week and a half, it's pretty much a write-off. From Thursday the 13th all the way through to Monday the 24th of August, we're seeing swell heights mostly below 2 ft and often flat. The winds are a mix of onshore and cross-onshore from the SW, which is the worst direction for this spot. Even the glassy mornings on the 16th and 20th have no swell to work with. There's a tiny pulse on Tuesday the 18th with a 4 ft SW swell, but it's paired with a moderate onshore breeze, making for poor conditions. The combined energy is weak, barely hitting 89.
There is one moment that almost breaks the pattern. On the morning of Wednesday the 26th of August, we finally get something. A 4 ft SSW swell with a period of 7 seconds rolls in. The combined energy gets up to a moderate 134, and the wind goes completely calm – glassy conditions. For a spot that's been starved, this is the best on offer. The swell is small, so it's not going to be firing, but it will be clean. This is the only real window in the whole outlook. After that, it fades back into tiny, onshore slop through the end of the month.
So, to sum it up: if you're desperate for a paddle, that Wednesday morning, the 26th of August, is your only chance for any thing clean and rideable. Other wise, it's a long wait.
Rusty.
