Asuchillo Beach Break Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a good, hard look at what's on the table for Asuchillo Beach Break over the next couple of weeks.

The overall pattern is a long, drawn-out run of small, clean waves. It’s not going to be a total flat spell, but don’t turn up expecting anything with much punch. The swell is going to tick up and down a bit, but this is beginner-friendly territory pretty much the whole way through. You’re looking at a consistent, albeit small, south-west groundswell (long period stuff, 14 to 19 seconds) which means longer lulls between sets, but the energy is there on the good ones with moderate wave energy. The wind is stubbornly offshore for most of the 16 days, which is a massive positive.

The standout session, the one I’d circle with a big red marker, is Saturday afternoon the 15th of August. The combined energy is pushing into the moderate range, with a solid 4ft of swell from the SW and a 16-second period. The wind is a moderate offshore breeze from the east, keeping things clean. It won’t be world-class, but it’s the most consistent, cleanest wave on offer.

If you can get out before the weekend, the Friday afternoon the 14th has a bit more size at 3ft with strong energy but it’s got a fresher offshore wind that’ll chop things up a touch. The Thursday morning the 20th of August is a real dark horse. The swell is only 2ft, but you’ve got glassy conditions and a long-period groundswell. For a true longboard or a funboard, that’ll be the most magical, silky session of the whole window. This break is “very consistent”, so you can count on those waves turning up.

There’s a bit of a gap in quality around the 21st and 22nd when the swell shifts to a shorter period, 10 seconds from the south. The mornings are still clean with an offshore breeze, so there’s a wave to be had, but the energy drops off.

A few late calls stand out as smaller but clean options. The morning of the 24th of August has 2ft of that long-period SW swell with a light breeze, and the 25th of August morning is similar. It’s all small fry, but it’s clean.

Overall, keep your expectations in the small wave zone. The period is long, so don’t expect a performance beach break. It’ll be a bit fat and full, but clean and rideable.

Stay stoked,
Rusty
