The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Rodiles - Main Beach for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a rough patch. The first week is a total bust. From Thursday the 6th of August right through to Saturday the 15th of August, the swell is pathetic, mostly under 2ft, short period, and plagued by cross-onshore breezes. The water is a balmy 72°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a solid three degrees above average, so it’s a real standout for the wrong reasons. You’ll be boiling, but you won’t be surfing.
The only real window comes on Tuesday the 18th of August. The morning brings a little pulse of NNW swell at 3ft with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy hits 198 (moderate wave energy). The wind goes glassy from the NW, dead calm, so it’ll be clean. That’s your one shot. The swell direction is NNW, close enough to the optimum NW, so it should wrap in okay. The afternoon picks up more energy (246) but the wind turns onshore, so forget it.
Before that, Sunday the 16th of August morning has a tiny 2ft and glassy conditions, but it’s so weak it’s barely a ripple. Then Monday the 17th of August morning shows a little life with 2ft and glass, but it’s still not enough. The crowd at Rodiles is often busy, so on that Tuesday the 18th, you’ll want to be out early before anyone else bothers.
After the 18th, it fades back into nothing. The last few days of the outlook are small and weak again. There’s a brief blip on Thursday the 20th of August morning with 3ft from the NNW and a period of 11 seconds, but the wind is onshore and the energy is 224 (moderate) – it’s surfable but ordinary. The period is long enough to get some shape, but it’s a beach break setup, so that long period might make it a bit straight. Still, it’s the second-best option.
So, to be blunt: there’s no real standout. If you’re desperate, target the morning of Tuesday the 18th of August. It’s the only time the wind, size, and swell direction come together. Everything else is a scratch session at best. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a real dry spell, but forecasts can always change, so keep an eye on it.
Stay frothy.
