The Lowdown
Alright, listen up, this is Rusty. Let's break down the local surf outlook.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty rough for decent waves at Andicuri. We've got swell coming, but the wind is just killing it. The whole forecast is a long stretch of poor surf conditions, with no standout sessions at all. The water temp is sitting around 82°, which is right on the mark for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.
The pattern starts on Friday, August 28th, and runs all the way through the 16-day window. We're looking at a persistent east-northeast wind that's either cross or cross-onshore, blowing fresh to strong – think 18 to 28 mph. That's going to keep the surface lumpy, messy, and full of cross-chop. The swell is coming from the east, generally in the 5 ft to 8 ft range, but it's short-period windswell at 6 to 8 seconds, so it's weak and disorganized. The combined wave energy is moderate, ranging from 182 to 892, but it's all wasted energy with that wind.
Even when the swell hits 8 ft on a few days, like Monday, September 7th, or Wednesday, September 9th, the wind is still on it, making it an expert-only mess. With this setup – a beach break with strong, onshore wind – honestly, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There's just no clean window to be found.
So, the bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. It's a tough stretch, but Andicuri is a very consistent spot, so it won't stay poor for long. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because things can change.

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.
