The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Rodiles - Main Beach.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first week or so is pretty quiet. The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 feet, and the wind is all over the place. It’s a bit of a waiting game. The water is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the wetsuit might be a little more forgiving.
Things start to look a bit more promising toward the end of the second week. The standout period is the 22nd of August. On the Saturday morning, we get a pulse of 3 ft swell from the NNW, with a long period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (298), and with a light cross-offshore wind out of the west, it’s going to be clean. This is a solid groundswell, so expect some good shape and energy, but it might be a bit straight for the beach break – keep an eye on the banks.
Then, the real highlight is the 24th of August, Monday morning. This is a proper swell event. We’re looking at 5 ft from the NW with an 11-second period, and the combined energy jumps to strong (472). The wind is light and cross-off from the west, making for clean conditions. This is the best bet in the whole window. It’s a bit punchy for beginners, but for the experienced crew, this is the one to circle.
After that, the 25th and 26th of August keep the energy up with clean, glassy mornings and manageable 4 ft to 4 ft swell. The crowd factor at Rodiles is often a thing, so for the 24th, expect a few more people out, but it’s worth the paddle.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off, but the final weekend into the start of the new week is where it’s at. The 24th of August (Monday) is the standout. Get on it.
