The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking at San Vicente Rivermouth for the next couple of weeks.
It’s a slow start, with nothing worth a paddle for the first few days. But keep your chin up, because a couple of mornings are going to be absolute diamonds.
Wednesday, September 9th morning is the pick of the bunch. We’re looking at a clean 5ft groundswell from the NW, with a 11-second period and glassy wind. The combined energy is moderate (471), so there’s some meat on the bone. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 71°, which is a nice treat. For a river-mouth, that long-period energy will wrap in and give you some proper lines. Crowds are possible, so get there early.
Thursday, September 10th morning is another beauty. The swell is a touch smaller at 4ft from the NNW, but it’s dead calm, glassy. The period is 11 seconds, and the energy is moderate (366). It’s going to be clean and fun. This is your second-best bet.
Wednesday, September 9th afternoon gets a bit onshore, so stick to the mornings. The swell direction from the NW is exactly what this spot needs.
After the 11th, things drop off with small, weak waves and poor conditions for a stretch. The morning of Saturday, September 19th shows a pulse of 5ft from the NW with a 12-second period, but the wind is cross-shore and choppy, so it’s a bit of a gamble. The energy is moderate (747), so there’s power, but it won’t be as clean as the earlier windows.
So, the first half of the second week is your window. The rest is for the hardcore crew.
Rusty.
