The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – the next 16 days are a bust for surf. There isn’t one session in the whole window that’s worth shouting about, so we’re sitting this one out.
The only break we’ve got to look at is Ristorante (or La Toscana), a reef setup that’s fairly consistent. The water temp is about normal for this time of year. The problem is the swell. From Saturday the 29th of August, we’re stuck with tiny, gutless waves. You’re looking at 1 to 2 feet from the S or WSW, with a weak period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 51 (weak energy) on Saturday morning, dropping to 19 on Sunday. The wind is cross-off or glassy sometimes, which means clean conditions, but there’s no power behind it.
Monday the 31st of August morning is glassy, but the swell is a pathetic 1 foot from the WSW. The afternoon is a mess – a strong cross-on shore wind from the WNW at 15 mph, whipping up a choppy 2-foot mess. That’s not surfable. This pattern holds through the first week of September. We get a few glassy mornings, but the swell is either flat or barely a ripple. On the 2nd of September, there’s zero energy in the water. The combined energy numbers are in the single digits – it’s as flat as a pancake.
Around the 9th of September, there’s a tiny bump. The morning of the 10th of September sees a slight increase to 3 feet from the SSW, with a 5-second period, and the combined energy hits 51 (weak energy). The wind is cross-off and clean. But the afternoon gets a bit more energy at 76 (still weak), but the wind turns cross-on and choppy. It’s still not worth paddling out for.
The long-range outlook, like the morning of the 13th of September, is a total zero – no swell and a strong cross-shore wind. There’s a blank run of over a week with no real waves.
For a reef like Ristorante, this kind of flat spell is normal for the area. The setup is just too small and weak for a proper paddle. Honestly, with the wind and the tiny, short-period bumps, this looks more like a kiteboarding spot right now. Leave the board in the car and wait for the next cycle.
Rusty.
