Hey guys, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming down at Acapulquito-Costa Azul (beach and reef). The water’s running a warm 81° right now—a good few degrees warmer than average for this time of year, so you’re in for a bathwater session.

We’ve got a slow start with some modest, consistent SSW groundswell rolling in, but conditions are a bit touch-and-go. The swell energy’s there, with moderate readings between 463 and 693 early on (Thursday, July 2nd). Thursday morning is a little underwhelming with slight offshore air but lumpy vibes. The real standout pops Thursday afternoon: glassy conditions, light offshore wind from the SW, and a clean 4 ft SSW swell with a long period of 16 seconds. That long period groundswell is best for the reef here, producing some nicely shaped runners. It’s not huge, but it’ll be clean and fun.

Friday picks up a similar 3 ft to 4 ft SSW swell with short-to-medium period around 14 seconds, but the wind switches cross-shore and there’s a bit of cross-chop, especially in the afternoon. Not terrible, but not as sweet as Thursday arvo.

Over the weekend (Saturday July 4th and Sunday July 5th), the swell drops a bit to 2 ft–4 ft, and the combined energy climbs into the mid-800s on Sunday morning. Problem is, we get more cross-onshore wind, so the surface gets a little ripply. Nothing too angry, but it takes the shine off. Saturday morning has 2 ft of swell with a super long period of 19 seconds and only 3 mph wind—could be glassy but it’s small, so you’re hunting for the clean ones.

The real standout for the whole run arrives on Monday, July 6th. Monday morning delivers a solid 4 ft SSW swell with a period of 16 seconds, combined energy spiking to 1192 (strong, punchy), and the wind is light and offshore from the SSE. The waves will have proper push and shape. Monday afternoon keeps the energy high (1120) with a very long 20-second period, though the wind gets a little cross-onshore. Still, the morning window is the primo pick of the whole forecast.

Tuesday morning (July 7th) still has some legs—5 ft SSW swell with 18-second period and a combined energy of 1394. That’s getting into the zone where it’s a bit much for beginners but great for intermediate and above. The winds are light cross-onshore, so there’s a small bump. Tuesday afternoon the swell pushes to 5 ft and the wind picks up to 12 mph cross-shore, creating a little cross-chop. Still surfable, but not as clean.

From Wednesday July 8th through Saturday July 12th, we hover around 4 ft–5 ft SSW swell with moderate energy and generally cross-shore or light cross-onshore winds. The quality is marginal but not awful. Sunday morning, July 12th, surprises with a glassy 4 ft swell and 14-second period—clean, small, and playful with very light air. Could be a sneaky good one for a relaxed session.

After that, things turn sour. From Monday July 13th to Friday July 17th, the swell drops off hard to 1 ft–3 ft, the winds go onshore or cross-onshore with moderate to fresh breeze, and we get rain and thunderstorms. Combined energy drops to below 400 most of the time—weak soup. This stretch is a write-off for surfing, and that includes a solid four-day gap (13th through 16th) where there’s no real recommendation. If you’re into kiting, that afternoon breeze and chop might be your jam, but for paddle surfing, you’re looking at a blank run.

Best call of the whole outlook? Without a doubt, Monday morning, July 6th. Clean, offshore wind, 4 ft of long-period SSW groundswell, heavy energy, and the reef will groom it into nice lines. Thursday afternoon, July 2nd is runner-up for that glassy, clean 4 ft south swell. After that, Sunday morning July 12th is a wildcard if you want a glassy, small-wave board session.

This spot is inconsistent by nature, so a few dead days are normal. But when it fires, it’s worth the wait.

Rusty.

Information about the Acapulquito-Costa Azul Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Acapulquito-Costa Azul provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Acapulquito-Costa Azul can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Acapulquito-Costa Azul surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Acapulquito-Costa Azul) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Acapulquito-Costa Azul may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.

Acapulquito-Costa Azul is 13 km (8 miles) from Cabo San Lucas. If you plan a holiday in Baja Sur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Cabo San Lucas. Cabo San Lucas has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
