The Lowdown
Right, folks. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Cabedelo over the next couple of weeks.
We’re kicking off a pretty quiet chapter for Cabedelo. The first week and a half is mostly a no-go, with a bunch of messy, cross-shore winds and small, weak swell. The water is sitting at 69°F with a tiny anomaly, so it’s about what you’d expect for this time of year. Nothing to write home about.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Thursday, the 3rd of September. The wind swings light and glassy from the south, which is a major plus. The swell is a tiny 3ft from the NNW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (131). It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary – a real knee-bouncer for the beginners.
Things get genuinely interesting on the morning of Sunday, the 6th of September. We’ve got glassy conditions again, with a light south-west wind. The swell bumps up to 3ft, but the period stretches to a tasty 12 seconds from the NW, giving it a bit of punch. The combined energy jumps to a solid moderate (342). This is the standout of the early window – clean lines, longer gaps between sets, and perfect for a longboard or a mid-length. It’s the best on offer.
Saturday, the 12th of September is the other big one. The morning is dead calm and glassy. The swell is a solid 6ft from the NNW, with a 9-second period. The combined energy is strong (567). This is a proper session, but keep in mind that over 5ft, it’s starting to push beginners. The wind stays clean, so the waves will have some shape. This is the standout of the entire forecast.
Into the second week, the consistency drops again. The morning of Monday, the 14th, has a clean, cross-off breeze from the NNE and a long-period groundswell (12 seconds) from the WNW, but the swell is small at 3ft. The energy is moderate (320). Then, the morning of Wednesday, the 16th, offers another glassy spell with a 2ft swell from the NW. It’s clean but small. These are just pleasant little sessions for the patient soul.
Overall, the best windows are the morning of the 6th of September and the morning of the 12th of September. The 12th has the size, but the 6th has the perfect period. Don’t expect much else.
Rusty.
