The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Well, I gotta be honest with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a solid run of surf, but the wind is just not playing ball at all. For the entire 16-day window, from Saturday the 18th of July right through to Sunday the 2nd of August, the conditions are being hammered by a relentless easterly breeze. That means it’s going to be messy, lumpy, and choppy every single day. There’s nothing glassy or clean on the cards.
The surf is coming in at a consistent 6ft to 8ft, which is a decent amount of water moving around. The energy is moderate to strong, with combined energy readings bouncing between 317 and 864. That’s a lot of power in the water, but it’s all short-period windswell, with periods of just 7 to 8 seconds, so it’s going to be a bit of a washing machine. The water temperature is sitting at 82°F, which is about average for the time of year, so no complaints there.
The only break in the game here is Andicuri. It’s an exposed north-facing spot, and the swell is coming from the east and east-northeast, which is not its optimum direction. The wind is howling at 18 to 28 mph from the east, making it a strong cross-shore or cross-onshore mess. The waves are going to be lumpy, with a lot of chop on them. At 7ft, it’s already getting a bit big for beginners, and with the wind being what it is, it’s going to be a challenge for anyone.
This is the kind of setup where you’d be better off looking at the kite surfers. For paddle surfing, it’s just not worth it. Andicuri is a very consistent spot, but with the wind and swell direction mismatch, it’s a write-off. There’s no standout day, no clean window. The whole 16 days is a gap for clean waves. It’s a bummer, but it happens. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the boards at home.
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.
