Table - best surf conditions forecast for El Conquistador over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaping up for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch overall, but there’s a little pulse of energy worth getting excited about. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The standout window arrives on Saturday the 11th into Sunday the 12th. The swell bumps up to 2ft from the SSW, but check out that period—20 seconds on Saturday morning. That’s proper long-period groundswell, and the combined energy climbs to a solid 367 (moderate). That’s your best bet of the whole outlook. Winds are light and clean Saturday morning with a cross-off, and by the afternoon it goes glassy. These conditions will be clean, with good shape, though at a beach and reef setup like El Conquistador, that long period can make waves a little straight, so watch for that. This is beginner-friendly size though.
Sunday the 12th morning is a bit cross-on, but the afternoon cleans right up with glassy conditions and the swell holds at 2ft from the S, energy at 301. That’s also a great session.
Monday the 13th keeps things rolling—2ft to 3ft from the SSW, period dropping to 15-16 seconds, still clean, with offshore winds in the morning and cross-off in the afternoon. Good everyday surf.
After that, things taper off. From Tuesday the 14th onward, the swell size drops back to the 1ft to 2ft range, and the energy falls off. You get some glassy mornings, but the waves are small and ordinary. There’s a stretch from about the 15th through the 22nd where there’s nothing really worth racing out for—just tiny, weak pulses. A few windows on the 18th and 19th have glassy conditions but only 1ft swell, so it’s really just a paddle-around kind of vibe.
Overall, if you’re gonna pick a day, make it Saturday the 11th or Sunday the 12th. After that, it’s small and quiet.
Rusty.

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 Conquistador 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.
