Andicuri Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty. I’ve combed through the Andicuri forecast, and I gotta be honest with you—it’s a grim outlook. Over the next 16 days, there isn’t a single session I’d recommend. The wind is a constant headache, and the surf is just a sloppy mess.

Starting off on the 25th of August, we’ve got a 2.3m easterly swell with a short period of 7 seconds. The energy is moderate, at 547, but it doesn’t matter because the wind is cranking at 25 mph from the east, creating a strong cross-shore chop. It’s blown out, mate. The water’s at 83°, which is about average for this time of year.

And this pattern just locks in. Day after day, through the end of August and into the first week of September, it’s the same grind. Swell stays between 1.9m and 2.4m, the period is stuck at 7 to 8 seconds, and the wind is relentless from the east or east-northeast, never dropping below 22 mph. It’s always cross-shore or cross-onshore, making everything a lumpy, messy, ugly situation. The energy stays moderate, bouncing between 300 and 650.

By the 6th of September, into the second week, the swell picks up but the wind doesn't let up. On the morning of the 6th, we’re looking at 2.5m at 8 seconds, and by the afternoon it jumps to 3.0m with strong energy hitting 1014. That’s a lot of water, but with that easterly wind still screaming at 28 mph and cross-onshore, it’s for experts only—and even then, it’s not worth it. The 7th and 8th keep the same theme: 2.3m to 2.5m, strong cross-shore wind, poor conditions.

The last few days, the 9th of September, the swell drops a little to 1.9m, but the wind is still strong at 25 mph. Same old story.

There’s no light at the end of this tunnel. The entire 16-day window is one long stretch of poor surf. If you’ve got a kite, this might be interesting with that persistent side-shore breeze and moderate to strong energy, but for a paddle surfer? This is a hard pass. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.
