The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it for Andicuri. I've been staring at the charts and, well, it's a bit of a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for a proper surf session. There's not a single moment where the stars align, and I'd be hard-pressed to tell you to paddle out.
For the entire period, from Friday the 11th of September right through to the 26th, we've got a constant onshore or cross-shore wind screaming out of the east and east-northeast. It's a strong breeze, mostly around 19 to 25 mph. This wind is just tearing the place up. The swell is there, sure, bouncing around between 5 ft and 8 ft from the east and east-northeast, but it's all wind-chop. The combined energy is moderate, hitting figures like 581, 754, or 421 (moderate wave energy), but it's all junk energy. The wave comment says it all: "poor surf conditions" for every single time slot. The period is short too, mostly 7 to 8 seconds, meaning weak, wind-driven slop.
The water temperature is a warm 82°F, which is about average for this time of year here. That’s the only nice thing I can say.
So, there are no standouts, no best days. It's a blank run from start to finish. Given that Andicuri is usually very consistent, this is a bit of an unusual rough patch, but it happens. If you absolutely have to get wet, a beach setup like this with that much onshore wind and chop might actually be more interesting for the kite surfers than for us paddle surfers. The way it's looking, the best call is to leave the board in the car and wait for the next forecast.

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.
