The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about the Andicuri forecast. It's a pretty bleak stretch ahead for paddle surfing, I gotta be straight with you.
Right now we've got a consistent run of east-sourced swell pushing through, but the problem is the wind. For the entire 16-day window, it's locked in from the east and east-northeast at a solid 22 to 31 mph. That means it's either cross-shore or cross-onshore, and the reports are all saying the same thing: poor surf conditions. Expect lumpy cross-chop and messy, blown-out waves every single session.
From August 28th (Friday morning) all the way through to September 12th (Saturday afternoon), every single entry in the forecast reads "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero. There are no standout windows at all. The swell size hangs between 5 ft and a punchy 8 ft, with periods of 6 to 8 seconds, so it's a mix of short-period windswell. The combined energy ranges from a moderate 226 to a strong 939, but none of that matters when the wind is trashing the surface.
With winds this strong and consistent from the east, plus the exposed nature of Andicuri to north swells (and we're getting east swell), this setup is honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The water temperature is 82°, about normal for this time of year here.
Bottom line: If you want clean waves at Andicuri, you're gonna have to wait. There is no surf on offer in this entire forecast run. It's a full 16-day gap. The break is very consistent, so conditions will turn around eventually when the wind pattern shifts, but for now, it's a no-go for a decent paddle session.
Rusty.

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.
