Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for Acapulquito-Costa Azul over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window, it’s a pretty flat and quiet run. There’s no standout “go now” moment. The swell is small, the wind is mostly cross or onshore, and the wave comment keeps saying “marginal” or “poor.” It’s not a total washout, but it’s definitely not a trip-saver.

The first real chance to get wet is Saturday afternoon, July 4th. We’re looking at a little 3 ft swell coming from the SSW with a long 18 sec period. That’s a proper groundswell, but it’s weak. The combined energy is only 771, so it’s going to be small and fat. The wind is a light cross-shore from the SW at 6 mph, so it’ll be reasonably clean but not glassy. The water temperature is 82°, which is a whopping 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s really unusual, so you’ll be sweating in a spring suit or boardies.

The swell picks up a touch for Sunday the 5th and into Monday the 6th, with 4 ft to 4 ft SSW swell, but the wind turns cross-on from the ESE or S. It’s still light, but that cross-on angle puts a little ripple on the face. The energy climbs to 1243 on Monday morning, so there’s a bit more push, but the period drops to 16 sec. Again, it’s marginal.

Tuesday the 7th is the biggest we see, with 5 ft to 5 ft SSW swell. The energy hits 1541, which is moderate. But here’s the catch – the wind is cross-on in the morning and then cross-shore in the afternoon with a moderate 12 mph breeze. That’s going to chop it up. The longer period (18 sec) means it’ll be a bit more lined up, but for a beach-and-reef setup like this, periods over 15 sec can make the waves break a bit too straight. It’s not the cleanest.

After that, the swell slowly fades through the second week. From July 10th onward, we’re stuck in the 2 ft to 4 ft range, with the period dropping to 11-14 sec by the end. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and the energy values drop below 500. There’s a big gap of poor conditions from July 16th to the 19th, with onshore winds picking up to 22 mph and heavy rain on the 19th. That’s a write-off.

There’s nothing here that screams “excellent.” The best of a bad bunch is probably the Saturday morning of July 5th – 4 ft SSW swell, 16 sec period, and a light cross-on breeze. It’s not perfect, but it’s the cleanest we get. The water is warm, and the crowds are “often,” so expect company. It’s inconsistent, so don’t expect a wave every minute.

Overall, this is a quiet period. The swell is too small and the wind is never truly offshore. If you’re a beginner, it’s safe, but not exciting. For experts, there’s nothing to get excited about. The forecast can change, but for now, keep your expectations low.

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.
