The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on what’s shaking at Le Ruppione.
First thing’s first, the first week and a half is a proper desert. From Tuesday, the 1st of September, right through to the 9th, we’re staring at a whole lot of flatness. Wave heights barely tickle 2 feet, and the energy in the water is non-existent (combined energy values mostly under 23). You’ll get some glassy mornings, sure, but with no swell to speak of, it’s just a pretty pond. That’s a solid 8-day gap with nothing to recommend.
We get a little pulse on the morning of Thursday, the 10th of September. The swell jumps to about 6 feet from the west, with an 8-second period, and the energy bumps up to a moderate 374. The wind is dead calm, glassy. That’s a real pretty picture. But the afternoon brings a 15 mph onshore wind that tears the place apart. So the morning is your only window, and it’s a tight one.
Now, the one you need to mark on your calendar is the morning of Tuesday, the 15th of September. This is a big, burly day. We’re talking a solid 12 feet from the west-northwest. The period is a very long 10 seconds, so that’s a lot of water moving (3848 energy). The wind is a light, glassy offshore breeze from the southeast. Nails. But here’s the kicker – this is expert-only territory. 12 feet on a beach and reef setup is a dangerous, heavy beast. The guidance literally says it’s predicted to be too big for this break. Unless you’re charging, stay on the beach.
The morning of Wednesday, the 16th of September, is your best bet for a proper session without the life-threatening danger. The swell drops to a cleaner 6 feet from the west with a 9-second period, still packing a punch (537). The wind is glassy from the east, so the conditions will be clean. That’s a proper, surfable size.
The water is bathwater warm at 82°F, which is a whopping 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year. A rare treat.
So, to sum it up: the 10th morning is a little teaser, the 15th is a monster for the brave, and the 16th morning is the true standout for a solid, clean session. The rest is a waiting game.
Rusty.
