The Lowdown
Alright, mate. Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu at Ristorante. It’s a reef break, intermediate level, and it’s pretty consistent. The water is a scorching 84°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need much more than boardshorts.
Looking at the whole 16 days, I gotta be honest with you – it’s a tough run. The combined swell energy is weak, barely cracking 50 (50) at its best, and most of the time it’s down in the single digits. The waves are small and the period is short, mostly around 4 to 6 seconds, so there’s no real punch. The wind is often a problem, swinging onshore or cross-onshore from the south or west, chopping things up. There are a few windows of clean conditions, but the swell is just too small to get excited about.
For the first week, from Tuesday the 25th of August right through to Sunday the 30th, it’s a write-off. We’ve got storm risks, cross-onshore winds, and tiny little waves. The best you can hope for is a glassy, clean morning on Sunday the 30th with a 2ft WSW swell, but it’s just not enough to push you around.
The middle of the run, around Monday the 1st of September, offers a bit of hope. You’ll get a clean morning with a light offshore ENE breeze and a 2ft swell from the SW. The energy is still low (30), but it’s the best looking window in the whole forecast. The swell direction isn’t a perfect match for the optimum SW, but it’s close enough to make it work. Even then, it’s small and marginal.
After that, it’s back to the same story. The second week is flat or very weak, with a lot of calm, glassy days but absolutely no push. By the 9th of September, we’re looking at zero energy. There’s a real gap of several days there with no real surf to speak of.
If you’re a beginner, the swell never gets over 5ft, so it’s not too big, but it’s so small and weak that it’s not really offering much to learn on. The short period means the waves are soft and crumbly, and the reef won’t be doing much to shape them. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on those onshore, choppy days.
So, the standout moment? If you’ve got to pick something, it’s the morning of Monday the 1st of September. Clean, offshore, and a tiny bit of swell. But don’t get your hopes up – it’s going to be a flat and frustrating 16 days otherwise.
Rusty.
