The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Andicuri has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a bit of a tough stretch for paddle surfing. The whole 16-day run is plagued by strong easterly winds, mostly cross or cross-onshore, which is going to keep things lumpy and messy. We’ve got plenty of swell – the combined wave energy is often moderate to strong, with values over 500 (522, 524, 554) at times, but the quality just isn't there for a good surf. The swell is short-period windswell, coming in at just 7 to 8 seconds, which makes for weak, crumbly waves.
The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is pretty standard for this time of year, with an anomaly of just 1°F. Nothing wild there.
The only real blip of potential, and I mean a real *maybe*, shows up right at the end. On Monday, August 31st in the morning, the swell jumps to 8ft from the ENE with a longer period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy skyrockets to 1593 – that’s a serious pulse of energy. The wind is still a fresh cross-shore from the east at 19 mph, which isn't ideal, but the bigger, longer-period groundswell might offer a few more structured waves, especially if you can find a bank that offers a bit of shelter. Still, the report calls it "marginal surf" so don’t expect perfection. By the afternoon, the wind turns cross-onshore and it goes to a messy 10ft, which is too big and blown out to be any fun.
Other than that one Monday morning, every other session is written off as "poor surf conditions" with fresh to strong cross-shore winds. For the first week, through the end of August, you’re looking at 6ft to 8ft of lumpy, short-period slop with constant wind. From September 1st onwards, it's more of the same – chest to overhead high, but still messy and choppy. There's a gap of several days with absolutely nothing recommended to surf.
For this forecast, there are no true standouts. The best on offer is that Monday, August 31st morning window, but it’s a gamble. If you’re a kitesurfer, that persistent side-shore wind and decent sized swell will look a lot more interesting than it does for us paddlers.
Stay patient, and check back in case the forecasts shift.
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.
