The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ over the next couple of weeks at Rodiles - Main Beach.
Honestly, we’re in for a proper slow spell to start. The first week is pretty much a write-off – day after day we’re looking at tiny, weak, short-period wind slop. There’s a small pulse around, but the combined swell energy barely gets past 100 (hitting just 127 on the 15th) and it’s mostly north windswell in the 1.0m range with a period of 6 seconds. That’s nothing to get out of bed for, especially with onshore winds. Even the glassy mornings on the 19th and 20th only offer knee-high junk. It’s a long stretch of nothing – from the 15th all the way through the 20th, it’s poor surf.
Things start to look a little more interesting as we head into Friday the 21st. The morning shows a jump: a clean 1.0m from the N, period stretching to 10 seconds, and combined energy right around 380 – that’s moderate on the stronger side. With a light offshore cross-off wind from the W, this is actually our first real standout in the window. The shape should be cleaner and there’s some push behind it. For a beach break, those longer 10-second intervals can make the lines a bit too straight, but the wind should help keep it organized. It’s not huge, but it’s the best you’ll see for a while.
Saturday the 22nd is a mixed bag. The morning is glassy but small at 0.7m from the NW, energy around 132. The afternoon improves a bit – 1.2m from the NNW, still 9 seconds, and glassy again with calm wind. Combined energy hits 238, so there’s some life, but the wave comment says “surfable but very ordinary,” so keep expectations in check. It’s clean, but not epic.
Sunday the 23rd morning has another clean window with a 1.2m NNW swell at 8 seconds and a light cross-off from the WNW. That’s probably worth a paddle if you’re keen, but the afternoon turns onshore and chop spoils it. After that, through to the end of the month, it’s back to small, weak conditions with wind issues. Nothing really builds again until the 30th, where we see a 1.2m NW swell at 8 seconds with glassy conditions in the afternoon and combined energy around 178 – but again, it’s just “surfable.”
So, if you’re looking to get wet, the standout morning is Friday the 21st – that NW groundswell with clean offshore wind gives us the best chance of a decent session. Saturday the 22nd afternoon is another option if you want glassy but smaller waves. Beyond that, it’s a long wait for anything meaningful.
Stay patient, mates. The ocean’s just having a rest.
