Table - best surf conditions forecast for Biologia (Mar del Plata) over the next 16 days.
Alright crew, Rusty here, checking the charts for Biología (Mar del Plata). First thing’s first – it’s a desert out there.
We’re looking at a massive dry spell. From July 12th all the way through to the 23rd, there's hardly a wave worth talking about. The combined swell energy is stuck in the two-digit numbers, starting at 290 and dropping to a measly 29. That’s weak, flat energy. Water temp is about 50°F, a touch warmer than usual, but that won’t help the surf.
There’s a little tease on the 14th and 15th with some ESE swell around 3ft to 2ft, period around 10 to 8 seconds. Winds are cross-off or light cross, so it’s clean, but the waves are just too small – energy is only 138 on Tuesday morning and falling. Not enough to get excited about.
The only half-interesting day is the 19th, when we get a bump to 4ft from the south, but it’s a messy 5-second windswell and cross-onshore choppy. That’s a kite day, not a surf day. Biología is very consistent – consistent at being flat. This kind of dead run is normal for the area, so don’t lose hope; things can change.
If you’re desperate, Monday the 13th morning is your best shot. ESE swell at 4ft with a 12-second period, clean cross-off NNW wind at 12 mph. It’s small but that longer period might give you a few clean lines at the point. It’s a beginner spot, so if you’re learning, that’s your time. Don’t expect any fireworks.
The second week fades to nothing – zeros in the energy column from the 25th on. It’s a tough outlook.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Biologia (Mar del Plata) can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Biologia (Mar del Plata) 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.
