The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s get into it.
Well, mate, I’ll be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for Andicuri is a tough one. From the start on August 14th right through to August 29th, every single session is tagged as “poor surf conditions” and scores a big fat zero out of ten. There are no standout sessions, no clean windows, and definitely nothing to get excited about. The wind is relentless, the swell is messy, and the wave quality just isn’t there for paddle surfing.
The first recommendation pops up on Friday morning, August 14th, but it’s a shocker. Andicuri is a very consistent, exposed N-facing point that can handle swell, but we’ve got a strong cross breeze from the E at 28 mph (933 combined energy for the afternoon), which is strong cross-onshore and messy. Swell is 8 ft from the ENE with a short 8-second period – that’s a lot of lumpy, choppy water. The water temp sits at 82°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, but with wind like that, you won’t be feeling it.
From Saturday August 15th through to the end of the month, it’s the same story. Fresh to strong easterly winds, cross or cross-on, and swell heights bouncing around from 6 ft to 8 ft. Periods are short (6 to 10 seconds), and the combined energy stays mostly in the moderate range (257 to 957). There’s no clean offshore or glassy moment in sight. Even though Andicuri is very consistent, the wind is ruining it – this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Crowds are sometimes around, but honestly, no one should be paddling out in this.
The last week of August, from the 22nd to the 29th, is more of the same: easterly cross and cross-on winds, 6 ft to 7 ft swell, short period. No let-up. No hidden gem. It’s a blank run that’s pretty normal for this area when the trades lock in.
Stay tuned for a change in the pattern, but for now, give Andicuri a miss.
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.
