The Lowdown
Rusty here, and it's not looking good for Andicuri. We're in for a long, frustrating stretch with no real surf on the cards. The whole pattern is stuck under a brutal easterly wind that's going to ruin every wave that shows up.
It starts Friday, July 17th, with some swell at 8 feet from the east, but the wind is screaming at 28 mph out of the same direction, blowing cross and onshore, making a total mess of things. The combined swell energy is moderate (766), but it might as well be zero with those conditions. And this is the story, day in and day out. Swell hangs around 5.5 to 8 feet, all from the east or east-northeast, with a crappy period of just 7 to 8 seconds. That easterly wind stays strong, between 22 and 28 mph, keeping the ocean blown-out, lumpy, and crossed-up the whole time. The swell energy bounces around from weak to moderate (278 to 787), but it doesn't matter one bit.
The whole 16-day forecast is a washout – nothing but "poor surf conditions" and zero scores. There's no hidden gem morning, no late-afternoon window, nothing. Even as we roll into the first week of August, it's the same deal: an 8-foot east swell with fresh cross-shore winds. For a break that's known for being very consistent, seeing it get thrashed by the wind like this is a real bummer. With the size over 5 feet and that short period, this is not a beginner wave, and even experienced surfers will be fighting a losing battle. Honestly, this whole setup is screaming for a kite, not a surfboard. That's it from me.

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.
