The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. We're looking at Andicuri, and honestly, it's a frustrating stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for decent surf.
The pattern is grim. We've got a constant, strong east-northeast wind that just won't let up, blowing cross-shore or cross-onshore day after day. This relentless wind is tearing up any swell that tries to show. The water temp is sitting around 82°, which is pretty average for this time of year, but you won't be caring about that because the waves are going to be ugly.
The only small glimmer in the whole run is around the morning of August 14th (Thursday). A moderate swell rolls in, with combined energy readings hitting 1185, and it pushes up to about 10 ft from the east-northeast with an 8-second period. But here's the killer – the wind is still howling at 25 mph from the east, making it a strong cross-shore mess. You'd need to be an expert to even think about that, and even then, the quality will be terrible. On August 15th (Saturday morning), it's a similar story – 10 ft at 9 seconds, but again, the wind ruins it. All that swell and nowhere clean to ride.
After the 18th, the swell drops right off, and we're back to small, short-period, wind-chopped slop. It stays that way through the end of the month. There are zero standout days here. With the constant wind and the beach setup, this looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for the entire 16-day forecast. The gear stays in the shed on this one.

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.
