The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Balneario Novo Quintao. I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough one. The entire 16-day stretch is a real struggle, with barely a window that’s worth paddling out for. The water is sitting at 63°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing out of the ordinary.

The one and only moment that shows any real promise is on Monday afternoon, the 10th of August. That afternoon, we’ve got a 3ft swell rolling in from the SSE with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is a solid 352 – a moderate amount of juice in the water. The wind is a cross-offshore breeze from the SW at 9 mph, keeping the surface clean. It’s not a massive day, but it’s the only time in this whole forecast that the conditions line up for a decent, clean session.

Before that, it’s a long, bleak run. From the 27th of July all the way through to the 9th of August, the surf is consistently poor. You’ve got messy onshore winds, short-period junk, and even when the swell bumps up to 6ft around the end of July and start of August, the wind is a strong cross-onshore, making it a total write-off. That setup with the strong wind and beach break would be more interesting for kite surfing than for a paddle surfer.

The only other flicker of hope is on Thursday morning, the 6th of August. There’s a 3ft SSE swell with a 9-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind, giving it a 2 out of 10 score. It’s surfable, but it’s marginal. The best of the bunch is still that Monday the 10th.

So, the standout is clear: Monday, 10th of August, afternoon session at Balneario Novo Quintao. It’s the only real quality window in a long, dry spell.

Rusty.
