The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what Rodiles has in store for us over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow burner to be honest, with a long wait for anything truly worth paddling out for.
The first week is a tough watch. We’ve got a long, quiet gap with hardly any surf to speak of right through until the 28th of August. The water temp is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick rubber. But from Tuesday the 25th right through to the end of the week, it’s either tiny or junk. The best of that early period might be Thursday afternoon – a glassy 3ft from the NW with the wind dying off to nothing. It’s surfable, but very ordinary, with weak energy (70). Not worth getting too excited about.
We finally see a pulse of life on Friday the 28th morning. A clean 7ft from the WNW and solid moderate energy (541) under a cross-offshore breeze. That’s a decent option for the confident intermediate, but at that size it’s pushing it for beginners. Later that day, the wind swings nasty and it gets messy with a cross-shore chop knocking it around.
The real standout, and the one I’d circle on the calendar, is Monday the 31st of August. Those early morning sessions are looking clean with a solid 5ft from the NW at a proper 11-second interval, pushing good energy (416). The light cross-offshore wind off the WNW will have it holding a nice line. That’s the pick of the first week for sure – good wave quality and a bit of proper push. But it can get crowded here often, so you’ll want to be up early.
After that, things go a bit quiet again until another window opens up. Wednesday the 2nd of September morning is a strong shout too – glassy conditions with a clean 4ft NW swell at 10 seconds (384). That’s another morning to lock in.
Then hold onto your board. The long-range forecast is showing something potentially huge. On Tuesday the 8th of September, we’re looking at a massive 10ft NW groundswell with a very long 15-second period and incredible energy (4827). That is serious, heavy water. The period is that long it’ll be breaking really straight at a beach break, but at Rodiles it could handle it. The wind is light cross-onshore, so it won’t be perfect, and that size is strictly for experts only – 8ft plus is no joke. Keep a close eye on this one, it’s promising but a long way out, so don’t book your flights just yet.
Later on Wednesday the 9th, it cleans up again with glassy 5ft from the NNW. A nice recovery session after the big stuff.
So, to sum it up: a slow start, but two clear standouts. Grab Monday the 31st morning for clean, solid waves, and mark Tuesday the 8th of September in the calendar for the big groundswell – just be ready for a serious session if you’re experienced enough.
Rusty.
