Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it. Acapulquito-Costa Azul is a beach and reef set-up that's usually inconsistent, so don't expect much. Water's sitting at a balmy 84° with a 6° anomaly – that's way warmer than normal for this time of year.
The next two weeks are mostly marginal, with a few glimmers. The big news is Thursday July 16 afternoon when the models show a massive 33ft swell from the SSE pouring in – combined energy is an insane 40068 – but let's be real, that's way too big for this break, strictly for experts or maybe kite surfers. The wind is cross-onshore anyway.
Honestly, the best window comes right at the end. Monday July 21 morning has light cross-shore winds with a 4ft SSW swell at 15 seconds and moderate energy (1054). Then Monday afternoon the wind turns cross-offshore from the WNW at 12 mph, cleaning things up nicely – same 4ft SSW swell (1051). That's your call. Small but clean. Tuesday July 21 also has a 4ft SSW swell with slight air, but crowds are possible here often, so expect company.
Rest of the window is either too small, too choppy, or blown out. A blank run is pretty normal for this spot given the inconsistency.
Rusty.

Information about the Acapulquito-Costa Azul Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Acapulquito-Costa Azul can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
