The waiting game. This afternoon we're supposed to get our long period NE swell. It should show up by this afternoon. The angle doesn't have enough east in it to pass us by and spots closest to the tip of Rincon should pick it up good later this afternoon. This morning however, the old tradeswell is dying off and there's not much to talk about. Knee to waist high pretty much everywhere, cleaner on the south. We'll update later and if it gets good enough we'll post our first gallery of the day. Once again, thanks to everyone who donated to our site and to those who help spread the word about us!

1:00pm UPDATE

Still waiting! It's still very small and not doing so good on form due to the afternoon NE winds. We're going to give it some more time. We'll check it again later on and post pics then. The swell is just starting to hit the bouy now so it is definately on the way.

4:00pm UPDATE

Still nothing. The winds picked up but not the waves. Still around waist high at spots closest to the tip of Rincon. The bouy is solid so it might sneak in towards sundown. Can't always trust the models.

Rincon, Puerto Rico (PR) Wave Forecast

12-31-08 7:30am
Plenty of surf in store for us down here in Puerto Rico. We'll have some long period NE swell for today and tommorrow to take us into the weekend's N swell that will start showing up friday. Saturday still looking the biggest and could possibly be around 4ft OH to Double OH plus at some spots. Great week for surfing puerto rico!
