The Lowdown
Hey crew, Rusty again. Let's be straight – we're in for a real dry spell over the next 16 days. There's not a whole lot to get excited about, so I'll break it down simple.
For the first week and well into the second, it's completely flat. The water temp is a normal 71°, but you won't be feeling it because there's nothing to ride.
The only day that even looks worth a mention is Monday, 22 September down at El Caño de la Culata. We might see a small pulse of swell – about 3ft out of the southeast, but with a real short period of just 6 seconds. The energy is weak (54), so don't expect any power. The wind looks to be a moderate cross-shore, which should keep the surface from getting too messy.
That's it. That's the one day with any life. For a spot that's fairly consistent, a long run of nothing like this is pretty much standard for the area. Time to find something else to do for a while.
Rusty.

Information about the El Caño de la Culata Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for El Caño de la Culata provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at El Caño de la Culata can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our El Caño de la Culata 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.

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).
