The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one to write.
We’ve got a 16-day window, but honestly, it’s a write-off for any decent paddle surfing at Andicuri. For the entire period, from now through to September 6th, the wind is relentless. We’re looking at a constant, strong onshore or cross-shore flow from the east and east-northeast, gusting from 22 mph up to 31 mph at times. The surf is there – swell heights mostly sitting between 6 ft and 8 ft – but it’s all short-period windswell of just 7 to 8 seconds, combined with that raw wind. The result is going to be nothing but messy, lumpy, blown-out conditions. The combined energy peaks at 650 near the start of September, which is moderate energy, but it doesn’t matter much when the wind’s tearing it all apart.
Every single slot in the forecast is rated as poor surf. There’s no standout day, no cheeky morning window where it cleans up. It’s just a long, 16-day stretch of frustration. For a spot that’s very consistent, this is a dead period. What we couldn’t use for a surfboard, a kite would love. With that much cross-onshore wind and wave height, Andicuri looks a lot more interesting for kite surfing than traditional paddle surfing right now.
The water temperature is currently a balmy 84°, which is normal for this time of year, but you won’t be feeling it because you’ll be too busy getting sandblasted. There just isn’t a single highlight to recommend. Forecasts can change though, and a break this consistent tends not to stay rubbish forever. Keep an eye on it, but for the next two weeks, don’t bother.
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.
