The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Rodiles - Main Beach.
To be honest, the next week and a half is a bit of a write-off. The surf is small, weak, and the wind is all over the place. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions from now until the morning of Friday the 14th of August. The combined energy of all swells directed here is mostly under 100 (weak energy), with a few days poking into the low 100s (moderate energy), but the quality just isn’t there. The water temperature is running at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The real story starts to change on the afternoon of Monday the 17th of August. That’s when we finally see a pulse of proper energy. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the NNW with a very long period of 13 seconds. That’s groundswell with serious legs. The combined energy jumps to 394 (strong), and with a light WNW breeze swinging cross-offshore, it’s going to be clean. That long period stuff will be lining up really well here, as Rodiles is a fairly exposed beach that handles a NW swell direction nicely. It’s a standout for the forecast period.
Then, Tuesday the 18th of August morning is the absolute peak. The swell pushes to 5ft with a 10-second period from the NNW, and the combined energy is 397. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and the water will be like a mirror. This is the best of the lot. It’s a little on the bigger side for beginners, but for intermediate surfers, that’s the session to circle on the calendar. The afternoon gets a bit onshore, so get in early.
The rest of the second week drops back into small, weak, and ordinary conditions, with nothing else worth chasing.
