The Lowdown
Alright, I’m gonna be straight with you – the next 16 days at Chirere are looking pretty grim. This is a reef break that’s exposed to the north-northeast, and it’s a consistent spot, but we just aren’t getting any love from the swell window. The water is sitting at 81°F, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We’ve got a long stretch of nothing special starting now. From Tuesday the 11th through to the end of the 16-day run, the surf is mostly poor to marginal. The best you can hope for are a few clean early mornings with a cross-off ESE wind, like Tuesday morning the 11th (3ft, NE, 6s) and Wednesday morning the 12th (3ft, NE, 6s). But the swell is weak, short-period windswell, and the combined energy is tiny – just 86 and 49 respectively. That’s barely enough to get the board wet.
There’s a bit of a spike in size on Friday the 14th morning, with 7ft NE swell and an 8-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 1018, which is moderate. But it’s cross-shore wind with a risk of thunderstorms, and the wave comment says “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” That’s a lot of water for a reef break, and with the wind not truly offshore, it’s going to be messy. That’s the only real standout, and it’s only for the hardcore crew.
Honestly, the rest of the period is a wash. The wind is mostly cross to cross-on, the swell stays small and weak, and the combined energy rarely gets above 200. There are a few cross-off mornings (like Tuesday 18th, Thursday 20th, Saturday 22nd, Sunday 23rd, Wednesday 26th) that’ll be clean, but the waves are tiny – 4ft to 5ft, with 6 to 7-second periods. You’ll be bobbing around on a lot of close-outs.
The best call is probably Friday the 14th morning, if you’re an experienced surfer and don’t mind stormy conditions. That 7ft NE swell has some power, but it’s not going to be pretty. Otherwise, pick a clean, small morning for a longboard or a paddle.

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.
