The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it's a bit of a tough stretch ahead. The wind and swell aren't playing nice for most of it, so we're going to have to be patient.
We've got a gap of almost two full weeks here with no real surf on offer. Starting right now, we're staring down a long run of poor conditions. The swell is coming in from the east, with a short period of just 6 to 7 seconds, so it's all windswell – no real power behind it. And the wind is just relentless, mostly a fresh to strong cross or cross-onshore breeze, keeping everything lumpy and messy. The wave energy is moderate, but it's all junk. On the 18th of September, the energy jumps up to 575 and 634 (moderate to strong), but with a near gale blowing, it's just a blown-out mess and honestly looks more like a kite-surfing setup than a day for paddling.
Now, we finally get a tiny glimmer of hope. It takes all the way until the morning of Wednesday the 30th of September. The swell drops right off to about 3ft from the east, the combined energy is weak (83), and the period is still short at 7 seconds. But, for the first time, we get a light south-southeast breeze making it cross-offshore and clean. That clean surface is a major positive. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
That morning at Andicuri is the one and only standout in the whole outlook. It's an exposed, north-facing break (optimum swell is from the north, so this east swell is a bit wonky). It's a very consistent spot for intermediates, which is good, but crowds are possible – and with the rest of the window looking so poor, you can bet a few people will be out. The waves will be small, around 3ft, but with that clean, glassy surface, there will be some fun, manageable lines for a patient surfer. Don't expect much power, but it'll be surfable. After that, it's back to the choppy, cross-shore grind.
So, if you can wait, circle the 30th of September. Otherwise, it's a long blank run. Hang in there.

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