Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at El Comedor are a tough watch. The whole 16-day window is full of “poor surf conditions” stamped next to every single session, and the highest score out of 10 is zero. That tells you everything you need to know. We’re looking at a long, flat gap right through the start with nothing worth paddling for.

The water temperature is sitting at 72° with an anomaly of just 0.9°, so it’s pretty much average for this time of year around here. The reef at El Comedor (an expert-only wave) is consistently getting onshore wind from the north or north-northeast, which kills any chance of a clean face. The swell is tiny, with heights bouncing between 3 ft and 4 ft through the first week, and periods are short – mostly around 4 to 6 seconds. That’s weak, wind-slop energy, with combined energy values barely cracking triple digits for a day or two before sinking back below 100 (41–97). Not even the exposed NNW swell window is catching anything worthwhile.

Come the second week, around July 14th, the swell starts to build a little. We’re looking at 5 ft to 6 ft from the north-northeast, with periods stretching to 7 or 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs into the 200s and 300s (288–501) – so moderate to strong energy – but it’s still onshore wind. The wind is blowing 12–16 mph from the N or NNE, and that’s a deal-breaker. The “poor surf conditions” tag sticks like glue. The waves will be mushy, bumpy, and unrideable for a paddle surfer. If you’re into kite surfing, the consistent onshore wind and building swell might look interesting, but for a surfboard? Leave it.

Even the biggest day around July 17th and 18th sees 7 ft swell from the NNE at 8 seconds, with energy over 460. But the wind goes cross-onshore, and it’s still labelled poor. No standout here, folks. There is no good option in this entire 16-day run. Sometimes a stretch like this is just the norm for the area – forecasts can change, but right now it’s a total blank. Keep the board in the car and wait for a better window.

Information about the El Comedor Surf forecast

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