The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Straight up, the outlook for Andicuri over the next 16 days is a tough one. There’s swell on the table for sure, but the wind is a constant problem. We’re looking at a whole lot of cross-shore and cross-onshore breeze, mostly fresh to strong, which is going to keep things lumpy, messy, and choppy. There’s no clean window in sight. For an exposed spot like this, that’s a dealbreaker for any kind of quality surf.
The first recommendation doesn’t come until Thursday, the 27th of August. But even then, we’re looking at a 6ft easterly swell with a short, weak 7-second period and combined energy of 312 (moderate). The wind is a fresh cross-onshore from the east at 22 mph, so the conditions are poor. That sets the tone. Through Friday the 28th, the wind picks up to a strong breeze of 28 mph, making things even messier with similar swell around 6ft.
The weekend into next week doesn’t offer any relief. The wind stays relentless, and the swell direction remains locked in from the east or east-northeast, with periods staying short at 6 to 8 seconds. The water temp is around 83°, which is about average for the time of year.
Even when the swell bumps up, like on Monday the 7th of September, with a 7ft swell and energy hitting 449 (moderate to strong), or Wednesday the 9th with a 8ft swell and energy up at 684 (strong), the wind is just too strong and onshore to make it any good. The 8ft on the 9th is big enough to be expert-only, but with that messy wind, it’s not even that.
The only thing worth noting is that if you’re into kite surfing rather than paddling, this setup of solid east swell and strong cross-to-onshore wind might be more interesting. For a surfer looking for clean waves, there’s nothing on offer here. We’re looking at a full 16-day stretch with no quality surf due to the persistent wind.

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.
