The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve had a good hard look at Andicuri for the next 16 days, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough run. We’ve got a consistent stretch of easterly swell, but the wind is gonna be a real problem for most of it, keeping things messy and choppy. There’s no standout, clean session in the whole window.
The pattern kicks off on Friday the 4th of September with a 6 ft east swell at a short, weak 6-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 222, but the real killer is the wind – a strong easterly at 22-25 mph. It’s cross-shore and cross-on, keeping the surface lumpy and making it a no-go for a decent surf. That same messy theme carries right through the first week, with swell building to around 7 ft by Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th, energy climbing into the 400s, but the wind never lets up.
There’s a slight change in the second week. From Friday the 11th of September, the swell period stretches to 8 seconds, which is a bit better, but the swell size is pushing up to 8 ft by Saturday the 12th. At that size, it’s getting into expert territory, and with the wind still hammering from the east at 25 mph, it’s going to be a rough, blown-out mess. The energy hits 834 on the Saturday morning, which is strong, but the wind state is just "strong cross-shore with messy cross-chop." Not what you want.
The water temperature is sitting around 83°, which is about normal for this time of year. Andicuri is an exposed, very consistent break that usually handles a north swell, but we’re getting everything from the east. The optimum swell direction from the guidance is north, so this east swell is not hitting it right.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the best you can hope for is a brief lull in the wind, but the data shows none. This setup looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, with that consistent cross-shore wind. It’s a blank run, and unfortunately, it’s a long one. Forecasts can change, but for now, I’d be looking at other options.
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.
