The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Slip Point. It’s a lean 16 days, no two ways about it.
The first few days are flat or barely moving. The combined energy of all swells directed here is only 50 (weak). Water temp is 55°, and that’s about 3° colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll feel that chill.
Tuesday the 8th is a total loss. Swell is 2 ft from the W at 10 seconds, but the wind is junk and conditions are poor.
Wednesday the 9th morning is the best early window. The swell picks up to 2 ft from the W, period goes to 12 seconds, and the energy jumps to 186 (moderate). Wind is ESE at 6 mph, cross-offshore, keeping the surface clean. It’s rideable, but it’s nothing special.
Friday the 11th afternoon offers a similar little bump: 2 ft from the W, 9-second period, energy at 111 (moderate), and clean cross-off wind from the E at 6 mph. Still just ordinary.
Saturday the 12th morning is glassy with a light NE breeze at 3 mph, but the swell is tiny at 2 ft from the W, 10-second period, energy at 70 (weak). Glassy, but no push.
The only real standout, and I’m stretching here, is on Wednesday the 23rd of September. We get a 3 ft swell from the WNW with an 11-second period and energy hitting 161 (moderate). The wind is WNW at 6 mph, which is cross-onshore, so expect some bump. It’s the biggest swell of the period, but it’s a long way out and not exactly clean.
Overall, it’s a quiet, cold stretch. If you’re itching to paddle, the Wednesday 9th morning or Saturday 12th morning are your best shots for a clean, small wave. But don’t get your hopes up.
Rusty.
