The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. I’ve got to be straight with you – the outlook for Andicuri over the next 16 days is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of onshore wind and messy waves, so if you’re hoping for a clean session, you’ll need to be patient.
The water temp is sitting at 83°F, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
The whole forecast period is plagued by strong easterly winds, mostly cross-shore and cross-onshore, which is going to keep the surf choppy and lumpy. There’s a consistent swell, starting around 7 ft on Tuesday morning and holding in the 6 ft to 8 ft range for the first week, but it’s coming from the east with a short period of just 6 to 8 seconds – that’s windswell, not groundswell, so it’s lacking any real punch or shape. The combined energy is moderate, hitting a peak of 871 on the 7th of September (Monday), but with those strong 28 mph winds, it’s blown out.
The whole first week, from Tuesday the 1st right through to Sunday the 6th, is a write-off for surfing. The wind is just too strong and the waves are messy. On the 7th of September (Monday) and the 8th of September (Tuesday), the swell picks up to 8 ft, but with the same strong cross-shore wind, it’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one. The same goes for the 10th of September (Thursday) when the swell is back up to 8 ft with 28 mph winds.
There’s a slight drop in the swell and wind after the 14th of September (Monday), but by the 15th and 16th, the swell fades to just 3 ft to 4 ft with a period of 5 to 6 seconds and the wind is still strong from the east. The energy drops right off to 54 on the 16th, so it’s weak and not worth getting out of bed for.
So, honestly, there’s no standout session here. The only break on offer is Andicuri, and it’s consistently poor conditions. If you’re desperate for a paddle, maybe the mornings of the 14th or 15th of September offer the least wind, but the swell is dropping and the quality is still low. Otherwise, we’re looking at a long 16-day gap with no good surf. For an exposed spot like Andicuri, this kind of blank run is more normal when the trade winds are this relentless.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards in the shed.
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.
