The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Look, this 16-day stretch at Andicuri is a total bummer. That east-northeast wind is just going to ruin it, day after day.
Starting Thursday, August 13th, we've got a 5.6ft ENE swell, but it's a short-period 6-second mess. That strong cross-onshore wind at 25 mph is making it a choppy disaster. The combined energy is weak at 245, and the water temp is 82.4°, which is about normal. It's poor surf – don't even bother.
Friday the 14th, the swell jumps to 9.8ft in the morning. That's expert-only, and combined energy is a massive 1123 – that's strong energy. But the wind is a near gale at 31 mph, straight cross-shore with crossing waves. Kite surfers might like it, but for a paddle surfer? No way. It drops to 8.2ft in the afternoon, but the strong cross-onshore wind kills it.
And it just doesn't let up. Through the weekend and into next week, we're looking at swell from 6.2ft to 7.2ft, but it's always that east wind, always cross or cross-onshore, with periods stuck at 6 to 8 seconds. The combined energy goes from moderate to strong, but it's all lumpy and messy. No clean windows at all.
Into the second week, it's the same story. By Thursday, August 27th, another big 9.8ft ENE swell hits in the morning, combined energy at a strong 1055, but that strong cross-shore wind at 28 mph means it's just a blown-out wall. Experts only, and it'll be a fight.
Best on offer? There isn't one. If you're really jonesing, the mornings of August 16th to 18th have slightly lighter winds (16-19 mph) and swell around 5.9ft to 6.9ft, with combined energy from 434 to 512. It'll still be lumpy and cross-shore, but it's your least awful option. Crowds are marked as "sometimes," but honestly, you'll probably have the place to yourself because the conditions are so poor. It's a rough run, no getting around it.

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.
