The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. Normally I’d love to get you excited, but this forecast is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window looking at Andicuri, and honestly, every single session is marked as poor surf conditions. The wind is a constant problem, blowing hard from the east and cross or cross-onshore, which is gonna leave the ocean lumpy, choppy, and messy. For the entire stretch, there isn’t a single standout session to point you toward. It’s a long, blank run with nothing to recommend for a proper surf.
Andicuri is a very consistent spot, which usually gives us hope, but with the wind pinned from the east like this, it just isn’t coming together. The swell sticks around, mostly around 4 ft to 8 ft, coming from the east-northeast or due east, with short, weak periods between 6 and 9 seconds. The combined wave energy is moderate to strong (between 214 and 959), but that energy is all but useless with that constant wind ruining the surface. The water temp is sitting at about 82°F (pretty normal for the time of year), but you won’t be enjoying it in those conditions.
For the first few days, from the 17th of August through the end of the month, it’s the same story: fresh to strong breezes, cross-shore or cross-onshore, and waves described as lumpy or messy. By the time we hit early September, into the 1st, nothing changes. The wind is still up and the surf is still poor.
Look, if you’re into kite surfing, that onshore wind and solid wave height could offer something interesting. But for a paddle surfer, this stretch is a write-off. Don’t lose all hope though; forecasts can change, and Andicuri is usually a reliable spot. For now, we wait.
Stay tuned,
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.
