Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’ve got a solid 16 days of forecast here, and I’m looking at Andicuri, but the wind is just not playing ball.
The overall pattern is dominated by a persistent, stiff easterly breeze that’s blowing right across the break. That cross-shore and cross-onshore flow is gonna leave the surface all chopped up and messy. We’ve got a moderate amount of swell energy coming in, with combined energy readings mostly in the 400 to 800 range (moderate), but with that wind, it’s going to be a battle. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
For the first full week, from Sunday the 12th right through to Saturday the 18th, it's a write-off for a decent surf. We’re looking at wave heights sitting between 7 ft and 8 ft, but it’s all coming from the ENE or E with a short, weak period of only 7 to 8 seconds. That’s windswell, and it’s being hammered by a strong breeze at 25 to 28 mph. It’s going to be strong cross-shore chop and blown-out, messy waves. Not worth paddling out for, honestly.
Moving into the second week, from Sunday the 19th of July through to Monday the 27th, the story doesn’t change much. The swell sticks around in the 6 ft to 8 ft range, still from the E/ENE, and still with that same short period. The wind eases a touch to a fresh breeze at 22 to 25 mph, but it’s still cross-shore or cross-onshore, keeping the surface lumpy and messy. The combined energy drops a bit, settling in the 300 to 500 range (still moderate but easing). Honestly, there are no standout days in this entire run. The closest we get to a recommendation might be Monday the 27th morning, with waves at 6 ft and the wind down to 22 mph, but it’s still cross-shore with lumpy conditions. Not a good look.
So, where does that leave us? There’s no real window for a quality surf. The swell is there, but it’s all windswell, and the wind direction is just wrong for Andicuri. It’s exposed, and it’s taking the full brunt of that easterly. If you’re a kite surfer, the consistent side-shore wind and decent-sized chop might look interesting, but for paddle surfing, it’s a full 16-day blank. It’s a tough run, but it happens. Forecasts can change, but right now, you’d be better off finding something else to do.
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.
