The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here again, breakin’ down the surf for Agua Verde in feet and degrees.
Let’s be real, the start of this stretch is a bummer. We’ve got a nice long-period groundswell from the southwest with good energy (505), but the wind is trash. For Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th, it’s cross-on and onshore, giving us blown-out, choppy waves around 3ft. Just ain’t worth it. The ocean is a warm 90°, way above normal for this time of year – feels like soup.
The whole following week is tiny, with swells mostly under 3ft and energy in the low hundreds. The wind just won’t get out of the way. There’s a blink on Saturday morning the 22nd where it goes glassy with a 1ft swell – surfable, but nothin’ to write home about. It’s a long, quiet run.
But hold on, the end of August is where the hope is. On Friday the 28th, things finally turn. The morning is glassy with a 2ft southwest swell and solid energy (356). By the afternoon, the wind goes cross-offshore from the southeast, cleaning it up nicely, with a 2ft, 18-second swell and strong energy (443). That’s your call for clean, lined-up waves at the Agua Verde point.
The absolute standout, the one to lock in, is Saturday the 29th. Glassy morning with a 3ft southwest swell (406). Then Saturday afternoon brings a 4ft southwest swell, a 16-second period, and a massive 596 energy reading – that’s powerful stuff. With a light cross-offshore breeze from the north, that point is gonna reel off. It’s gettin’ a little sizey for beginners, but for everyone else, it’s gonna be magic. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, so set your alarm.
It fades again by Sunday the 30th as the wind comes back onshore.
This one’s a long-range promise, but it’s lookin’ sweet.
Rusty.

Information about the Agua Verde Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Agua Verde provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Agua Verde can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Agua Verde 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 (Agua Verde) 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 Agua Verde 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.
