The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I’ve had a good look at the Andicuri forecast for the next couple of weeks, and I’ll be straight with you – it’s not looking pretty. We’ve got a long, frustrating stretch ahead.
For the entire 16-day window, starting from Wednesday the 19th of August right through to Thursday the 3rd of September, the surf is rated as poor. There is no standout day. The wind is our biggest enemy here. It’s a constant, strong cross-shore or cross-onshore breeze from the east and east-northeast, blowing anywhere from 19 to 31 mph. That’s going to leave the surface chopped up and lumpy every single session, making it a real battle just to get a clean ride.
The swell itself is actually on the menu, with heights ranging from 5 ft to 8 ft. The combined energy fluctuates, hitting moderate levels on some days (like the 394 recorded on the 22nd) and pushing up into strong territory by the 2nd of September (883). But with that relentless wind, none of that energy is going to translate into good waves. The water temp is sitting around 83°F, which is normal for this time of year.
Honestly, with these conditions, a setup like Andicuri (an exposed beach break) is looking more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing. You’d be fighting a losing battle out there.
There is a gap of a few days with no good surf – you might as well expect the whole 16 days to be a write-off. It’s a blank run for the area, and with the wind patterns locked in, there’s not much to get excited about. Keep an eye on the charts, because forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the car.
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.
