The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next stretch.
First up, we’re looking at a pretty quiet 16-day window overall. The only spot on the radar is San Vicente Rivermouth, a river mouth set-up that's fairly consistent. For the first week and a half, it’s a total write-off. There’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up for a long while. We’re talking a gap of about two weeks with no decent surf. It’s one of those runs where you’re better off checking the forecast again later.
Now, the one standout I’d point you toward is for the morning of Wednesday, August 12th. That’s the only window worth marking on the calendar. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds. That’s a solid groundswell, and the combined energy is moderate (287). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the WSW, which is a major plus—it’ll keep the surface glassy and clean. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 71°, with the anomaly 3° above average. The break is a river mouth, so it handles that NW swell direction nicely. Keep in mind, it can get crowded here sometimes, so get in early. The afternoon of that same day looks messy with a strong onshore breeze, so the morning is your window.
Before that, everything else is flat or blown out. The swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the winds are mostly cross or onshore. It’s a long wait for that one chance on the 12th, so if you’re keen, pencil it in and hope the forecast holds. For the rest of it, it’s a hard pass.
