Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Club del la Playa.

Right now, the outlook is a bit of a slow burn. We’ve got a few windows where it gets pretty good, but you’ll have to be patient and pick your moments. The water temp is sitting at 52°F, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.

The first real chance to get a wave isn’t until this Sunday morning, July 5th. It’s going to be cloudy with glassy conditions, which is a major positive. The swell is a modest 3ft from the ESE with a period of 10 seconds, pushing through with moderate energy (339). The wind is nearly nothing, glassy, so it’ll be clean. It’s not huge, but for a small, clean session, that Sunday morning is the best you’ll see in the near-term.

Monday, July 6th, is a write-off. Strong onshore winds kill any chance of decent surf. That theme continues through most of the week with poor conditions, lumpy cross-chop, and mostly small, weak swell.

Then things change. Saturday, July 11th, is a true standout. Morning and afternoon both look excellent. We’ve got 5ft of SSE swell, with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind is light and cross-offshore. The energy is strong (597 in the morning and 548 in the afternoon). This is groundswell quality stuff with clean faces, and it will be well-shaped. This is the day to circle on the calendar.

After that, the surf drops back off through the middle of the month with very poor conditions and small swell, and then we get another interesting window. On Friday, July 17th, the morning brings a clean 4ft SSE swell with a long 11-second period and light offshore wind from the NNE. The energy is moderate (411), and with the light wind, it’s going to be clean and lined up.

Again on Saturday, July 18th, the morning session is promising with 4ft S swell at 10 seconds and light offshore wind from the NE (302 energy). It’s good, but the window is tight as the afternoon gets messy.

Overall, this forecast has two clear standouts: the morning of Saturday, July 11th and the morning of Friday, July 17th. Those are your best bets for clean, quality waves. The rest of the 16-day run is mostly blown out or flat, so don't expect much else.

Information about the Club del la Playa Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Club del la Playa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Club del la Playa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Club del la Playa 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 (Club del la Playa) 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 Club del la Playa 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.
