The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's break down what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks at Balneario Novo Quinta.
Right off the bat, the water is sitting at 63°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Not a game-changer, but nice to know.
The first few days are a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We've got a bit of a lull from now until Sunday the 9th. The energy is weak, with combined energy readings barely cracking 100-200 (the numbers are low). The swell is short-period and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making for choppy, poor conditions. There's a small window on Tuesday morning the 4th with glassy conditions and a longer 11-second period SSE swell, but the size is only 3 feet, so it's really just a small, clean option for the most patient among you.
The real standout, the one you've been waiting for, is Sunday the 9th. That morning, we get a clean, moderate offshore from the WNW, cleaning up a 5 foot S swell with a 12-second period. The wave energy jumps up to 691 (moderate), and that offshore wind is going to hold it open all day. This is a proper window of quality surf. The swell direction is a touch east of the optimum SSE, but it's still going to be the best of the run.
Monday the 10th sees the swell jump to 6 feet, with a similar period, but the wind goes cross-shore and then onshore, making it a bit messy. The energy is strong (1078-1094), but it’s not going to be as clean as Sunday.
After that, the forecast gets a bit messy with strong onshore winds for the middle of the week. The swell from the 11th to the 14th is still there, but it's all cross-onshore wind, making it lumpy and choppy.
Then, we get another looker on Saturday the 15th. The afternoon shapes up with a moderate offshore wind and a 7 foot ENE swell. The energy is very strong (1164), and the wind is clean. That's a good size for experienced surfers, but it might be too much for the beginners. The 8-second period is a bit short, but with that offshore wind, it'll be fun.
Overall, circle the 9th and the 15th. The 9th is your best bet for clean, long-period groundswell, and the 15th is for the bigger, more powerful stuff.
Rusty.
