The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a solid 16-day window, but I’m not gonna lie to you – it’s a rough one for Andicuri. The wind is a persistent problem, and the quality just isn’t there for a clean paddle session. To be honest, with this setup, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
Looking at the whole run, it’s a near-constant stream of strong easterly winds. Starting Thursday, 6 August, we’ve got a 7 ft swell from the east chewing at a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is already moderate (344), but that 25 mph cross-shore wind is just killing it. That’s the story all the way through the first week – messy cross-chop and blown-out conditions. The swell hangs around 6 ft to 7 ft, but the wind never really lets up. By Friday, 14 August, the swell jumps to 8 ft from the east-northeast, with period stretching to 8 seconds. The combined energy cranks up to strong (749), but that 28 mph cross-shore and cross-onshore wind keeps it a total write-off for a surfer.
Into the second week, the pattern doesn’t shift. We’re still looking at strong easterly winds and lumpy seas. The swell stays in the 7 ft to 8 ft range, with east-northeast direction and periods of 8 to 9 seconds. The combined energy is strong, hitting 953 on the 15th, but the wind is a near gale. It’s just not surfable. The last few days of the window, from 19 August onwards, offer no relief. The wind is still strong, and the swell is still messy.
There are no standouts here. If you’re desperate for a wave, wait for a lull in the wind, but I wouldn’t count on it. The forecast can change, but right now, it’s a blank run.
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.
