The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for the next couple of weeks.
It’s a slow start, with a few days of tiny, weak waves that aren’t worth your time. The first real chance to surf comes Thursday September 3rd. The swell is small, but the wind is offshore and glassy, so it’s clean even if the waves are small.
The standout energy hits later. Saturday September 5th sees a jump in size, but it’s blown out by strong cross-offshore winds. The swell sticks around Sunday September 6th, with a solid 8ft swell from the south, packing a punch with combined energy of 1801. That’s a powerful groundswell, but it’s coming with a cross-shore wind, making it choppy and tough. This is expert territory—way too big for beginners. The water temperature is 51°F, which is a whopping 4°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a bit of a bonus.
Looking at Playa Varesse, the ideal swell direction is from the ESE. The swell we get on Sunday is from the south, so it’s not hitting the break perfectly. Still, the raw power is there. The period is 9 seconds, so it’s a mid-range swell, not a super long groundswell, meaning the sets will be fairly regular. The crowds can be a problem here sometimes, so expect company if it’s working.
After that, the energy fades. Monday September 7th offers a smaller, cleaner option with 5ft from the SE and lighter winds, but it’s nothing special. The second week looks inconsistent and mostly small, with a few windows of surfable but ordinary waves around September 13th and 14th. The water stays cool, and the winds are all over the place, so it’s a pick-and-choose situation.
Overall, the best bet is the Sunday September 6th session if you’re an experienced surfer looking for size and power, despite the wind. For everyone else, the Thursday September 3rd morning with the offshore breeze and clean lines is the most user-friendly option.
