The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I've been staring at the charts for Andicuri and I've got to be straight with you—this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window looks like a write-off for decent surf. The finder is coming up empty, not a single recommendation in the bunch. That's a real bummer, and honestly, for this area, a blank run like this isn't completely unheard of, but it doesn't make it any easier to swallow.
The issue is relentless. We've got a constant, strong easterly wind blowing, and it's rarely doing us any favours. It's either a messy cross-shore or a nasty cross-onshore, and often it's a strong breeze or near gale. That's just going to tear the surface apart. The swell ain't the problem, at least not size-wise. We're looking at a consistent 7 ft to 8 ft of east swell coming in, but with a short, weak period of just 7–8 seconds, it's all wind-swell, lacking any real punch. The combined wave energy sits in the moderate range, mostly between 400 and 700 (moderate wave energy), but it's all for nothing when the wind is that brutal.
The water temperature is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won't be freezing your arse off while you get blown to bits.
Every single morning and afternoon from August 3rd right through to August 18th is marked as "poor surf conditions". There's no standout day, no hidden gem, no window of glassy calm. It's just a solid block of messy, choppy, wind-affected junk. The biggest swell day looks to be around the 14th of August, with the swell hitting 8 ft, but the wind is predicted to be near gale force, making it a total, blown-out washout. That's genuinely for experts only, and even then, it's a kite-surfing day, not a paddle-surfing one.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this is one of those forecasts where you give the board a rest, wax the car instead, or just enjoy the beach from the sand. The only thing consistent here is the lack of quality. Hopefully, things will shift, but for now, there's nothing to chase.
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.
