Andicuri Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's coming up for Andicuri.

Andicuri is a very consistent, exposed spot that normally would handle a good bit of energy from the north. Unfortunately, for the entire 16-day window starting now, the wind has got this place in a nasty headlock. Every single session – from Sunday the 12th right through to Monday the 27th – is dominated by strong east to east-northeast winds. This keeps the surf in a constant state of messy, cross-shore chop and blown-out, cross-onshore junk. The swell is there, sure. We see moderate wave energy with chest to well-over-head high waves (6 ft to 8 ft) running with a short, weak period of just 7 to 8 seconds. But with that relentless wind, it's practically unsurfable. Water temperature is sitting at 81°F, which is about average for this time of year, but you won't be caring about comfort with that wind.

Because of these constantly poor surf conditions and that decision score sitting at zero for the whole period, there isn't a single standout day for a paddle surfer here. The bump and chop are just too strong. Honestly, with this much consistent wind and that strong cross-shore energy, the setup would be far more interesting for kite surfing than for a traditional surf session.

The long-range part of the forecast, as we head toward the 25th and 26th, doesn't offer any relief either. That same wind pattern and swell state just keep repeating. There is simply nothing on offer for surfers here in the 16-day window. It's a blank run, and for a spot that fires with the right conditions, it's a real shame. But that's the way it goes sometimes – forecasts can change, but for now, give this one a wide berth.

Rusty.
