The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Rodiles - Main Beach. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for this spot. We’ve got a long stretch of weak, short-period junk and almost nothing that’s gonna make you grab your board in a hurry. The surf is tiny, the energy is low, and the wind is rarely on our side.
The first solid week, from now through the 27th of July, is pretty much a write-off. We’re looking at swell heights barely cracking 2 feet, with periods of 5 to 6 seconds and combined energy values that are mostly in the double digits – like 23 (weak energy), 21 (weak energy), 11 (weak energy). That’s just wind chop. Water temps are around average for the time of year, so no major surprises there. You’ll see a few mornings with glassy conditions, like Sunday the 19th, where it’s flat calm with 2 feet of swell, but that energy is still pathetic at 37 (weak energy). Not worth the paddle.
The only real glimmer in this whole 16-day window lands on Wednesday the 29th of July. We’ve got a pulse of 5 feet swell from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds, and a combined energy of 449 (strong wave energy). More importantly, the morning is glassy – that’s “clean” conditions. That’s the standout. The swell direction is from the NW, which is actually the optimum direction for Rodiles. This is a proper groundswell, and the longer period will give you better shaped waves. But it’s not huge, so it’s still okay for intermediates. Keep in mind, the crowds are listed as “often” here, so expect company.
Outside of that one morning, it’s a desert. The 28th offers a bit of 4 feet swell from the NW with glassy morning conditions, but the energy is only 137 (moderate energy) and the score is a 1 out of 10, so it’s just “ordinary.” The 31st has some clean morning wind with 3 feet NW swell, but again, nothing special.
Bottom line: if you’re not free on the morning of Wednesday the 29th, you can pretty much leave the boards in the car for the rest of the fortnight. This place is serving up a whole lot of nothing.
Rusty.
