The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. I've got the goods for Andicuri and it's a bit of a tough stretch, so let's be real about it.
The whole 16-day window is locked in with a persistent East to East-North-East wind that just won't let up. It's going to be a windy, messy period. The water temp is sitting at a warm 82°, which is pretty average for this time of year, so at least you won't need a thick suit.
Right out of the gate, from Thursday the 6th of August through to Friday the 14th, it's a write-off. The swell is there, between 6ft and 7ft, and the combined energy starts around a moderate 320 but builds, but the wind is the killer. We’re looking at strong cross-shore and cross-onshore breezes, gusting from 22 mph to 31 mph. It’s raw, choppy, and just plain ugly. You'd be battling a washing machine.
There's a brief glimmer on Saturday the 15th of August. The swell bumps up to a solid 10ft out of the ENE, with a period of 9 seconds and the combined energy jumps way up to 1565. That's serious power. But, and it's a big but, the wind is still howling from the East at 28 mph. It’s a cross-shore mess, and this break is a very consistent, exposed spot. At this size and with that wind, it's only going to be for the experts, and even then, it'll be a battle. The waves will be lumpy and challenging.
The rest of the window, from Sunday the 16th all the way to Friday the 21st of August, follows the same pattern. The swell stays solidly between 7ft and 8ft, with combined energy readings staying in the moderate to strong range (469 to 804), but the wind remains a brutal East or East-North-East at 22 to 34 mph. It's constantly cross or cross-on, meaning the wave faces are always chopped up. There's no clean window here.
Honestly, for Andicuri, this is a long, frustrating stretch. The swell has the size, but the wind is just relentless. If you're a kiter, this steady side-shore wind and messy, lumpy surf might be for you, but for a surfer, there's nothing to get excited about. We'd need a change in that wind direction to make it all come together. Keep an eye on it, but don't expect much.
Stay patient, 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.
