The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next two weeks here at Andicuri are a tough watch, I’m not gonna lie. The swell sticks around, but the wind is a real problem. It’s blowing cross or cross-onshore from the east pretty much non-stop, and that’s making a mess of things. The water temperature is sitting at 83°, bang on normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a wetsuit.
The outlook kicks off on Saturday, 29 August, with a weak 5 ft ENE swell, but the period is short at 7 seconds and combined energy is low at 228 (228). The onshore wind is fresh and messy, so it’s just lumpy. No good. This same pattern drags through the whole weekend and into the week. By Monday, 31 August, the swell picks up a bit to 6 ft from the east, but the wind is still up and the period is still short. The energy climbs to 384 (384), but condition notes are all “poor.” It’s just not surfable.
The first week is a total write-off. The wind stays strong, the swell is short period, and the break is exposed. Every single session is marked as poor. There’s no standout here. If you were hoping for a clean window, you’re out of luck.
Moving into the second week, things don’t change much. Monday, 7 September, the swell jumps to 8 ft from the east, with a slightly longer period of 8 seconds, and energy is strong at 640 (640). But the wind is still a strong cross-shore mess. On Tuesday, 8 September, it’s 8 ft from the east, period 8 seconds, energy 793 (793) – that’s a lot of power, but it’s all blown out. At that size, it’s expert territory anyway, but with the wind this bad, it’s not even worth paddling out. The same story repeats right through to Sunday, 13 September.
I’m not going to sugarcoat it – there’s nothing to recommend here. The energy is there, but the wind kills it. If you’re a kitesurfer, this setup might be more interesting than paddling, because the wind is consistent and strong. But for a surfboard? Forget it. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, this is a long blank run.

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.
