Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer. We’re looking at a bit of a frustrating run for the next couple of weeks. It’s not that there’s no swell, but the conditions are really fighting us. The best bet is to be patient and wait for a specific window.
The primary spot here is Chirere, a reef break that wants a good NNE swell. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first few days of July are pretty ordinary. Monday the 6th has some small 4ft swell from the NE, but the wind is a cross-offshore, and the energy is weak (103). It’s surfable, but just barely. The rest of that week up to Wednesday the 8th is a write-off – the wind is messy, cross-shore, and the swell stays small and weak.
Now, Thursday morning the 9th is the one standout in this whole forecast. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the ENE. The wind is a light cross-offshore, and the energy jumps to a moderate 297. The forecast says clean, and that’s what we want. This is your best shot. The swell is still a bit short period at 7 seconds, so it won’t have that grunty groundswell feel, but it’ll be the cleanest waves we see. It’s a solid beginner-to-intermediate size.
After that, it gets messy again. Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th see the swell energy climb high (424 and 573) but the wind is all cross-shore, and the conditions are poor. That’s a lot of water moving around with no quality. It might be more interesting for the kite surfers than paddle surfers, to be honest.
The second week, from Monday the 13th onwards, is a real struggle. There are a few moments where the swell is around 4ft to 5ft, but the wind is either cross or cross-on, and the wave comments are mostly “poor” or “marginal.” Wednesday morning the 15th and Tuesday morning the 21st show a little pulse of energy (373) and (218) respectively, but the wind is just a gentle cross-shore, leaving a slight chop. It’s not worth getting too excited about.
Honestly, if you’re keen, keep your eyes on Thursday morning the 9th. That’s the only window that looks worth the paddle. The rest of the fortnight is a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Chirere Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Chirere provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Chirere can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Chirere 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 (Chirere) 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 Chirere 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.
Chirere is 41 km (25 miles) from the city of Guatire. If you plan a holiday in Caracas, look for hotels and other accommodation in Guatire. Guatire has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
