The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight about it – the next couple of weeks are looking like a write-off for Andicuri. We've got swell, no doubt, but the wind is just going to wreck it every single day. There's no point sugar-coating it.
We start with the morning of Wednesday the 19th of August. There's a 6ft swell already rolling in from the east, but an easterly wind at 22 mph has things all chopped up. The combined wave energy is moderate at 235. It's just not surfable. That same story repeats day after day, morning and afternoon. The swell sticks around, sometimes pushing past 7ft and hitting moderate energy levels in the 400s and 500s, like we see on the 21st with 528, but that strong cross-shore and cross-onshore wind from the east and east-northeast, often howling at 25–31 mph, keeps everything blown out and messy. It's a real shame because there's some solid energy in there.
Things don't change. Towards the end of August, the wind eases slightly to a fresh breeze in the 19–22 mph range, but the damage is done—it's still a lumpy, cross-shore mess. That 7ft east swell on the 26th of August, with energy hitting 671, would have been something special, but it's useless with that wind. The whole run just continues like this, right through to the 3rd of September. There's not a single window with clean, offshore conditions.
Look, a very consistent spot like Andicuri usually bounces back, but for this 16-day stretch, there is nothing on offer for a surfer. This setup, with strong swell and constant strong sideshore wind on an exposed beach, frankly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
Stay patient, check in with me later, conditions will turn around.

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.
