The Lowdown
Alright, I’m gonna level with you straight up. It’s a tough stretch ahead for Andicuri. There’s no way to sugarcoat it: we’re looking at a solid 16-day block and, honestly, not a single session that I’d be itching to paddle out for. Every single forecast entry comes back as “poor surf conditions,” with scores that make you want to walk back up the beach before you even get your board wet.
The main issue is the wind. We’ve got a persistent, strong easterly breeze that’s hammering this exposed spot from the morning right through the afternoon. It’s mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, chewing everything up into a lumpy, choppy mess. Even when the swell size gets a bit of punch – like around 8 ft on Monday the 7th morning, or again on Thursday the 10th morning – the wind just ruins it. That 8 ft swell on the 10th has a combined wave energy of (906), which is solid, but with a short 8-second period and a brutal cross-shore breeze, it’s a washing machine out there. That’s expert-only territory, and even then, it wouldn't be fun.
For the first week, from Wednesday the 2nd right through to the 8th, we're stuck with that strong wind and surf around 6 ft to 8 ft. It’s just messy. The wave period mostly hovers around 7 seconds, so it’s weak, short-period wind swell with no real shape. For beginners, that 5 ft+ mark is already pushing it, and with conditions this ugly, it’s not worth the risk.
There’s a tiny glimmer on the very last day, Thursday the 17th morning. The wind finally switches to a SE cross-offshore breeze at 15 mph, and the forecast actually says “clean.” But the swell is still only 6 ft from the east, period is short at 7 seconds, and the energy is low (342). It’s the best of a bad bunch, but I wouldn't call it a standout. It’s more like a shrug of the shoulders.
Given the persistent onshore grinder and the lack of any decent window with clean conditions, I’d honestly say this stretch looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. If you’ve got a kitesurf rig, you might have some fun, but for a surfer? Save your energy.

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.
