The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the next couple of weeks. It’s a quiet stretch, so don’t expect much.
The only break in the game is El Conquistador. It’s a beach and reef setup that’s always throwing something at you, but it’s going to be a real grind. The best we’ve got kicks off Tuesday, July 14th, with a 2.3ft SSW swell, coming in with a 14-second period. That’s a long-period groundswell, so it’ll have some shape and make paddling out easier, but it’s small. The combined energy is moderate (198). The wind is light offshore from the ESE in the morning, going glassy in the afternoon. That’s clean water, but you’ll be on a log or a mid-length to get any rides.
The rest of the week into the weekend is a slow crawl. Wednesday and Thursday drop to 1.3ft, with the occasional clean window. The water temp is about normal for the season. The combined energy mostly drops into the weak double digits. Friday morning, July 17th, has a 1ft swell with a very long 19-second period, giving a spike of moderate energy (102). That’s a real long-period swell, which at a beach break can straighten out, but it’s the most interesting bump in a flat spell.
The second week is mostly dead. You get a few mornings with tiny 1.3ft swells and glassy conditions, like Saturday July 18th (1.3ft, 18s, 107 energy) and Sunday July 19th (1.6ft, 16s, 131 energy). The wind is light and clean, but it’s barely surfable. By the end of July, the swell completely vanishes. From July 27th, it’s flat – just glassy water with no push.
The one standout window is the first Tuesday and Wednesday (July 14-15). The swell is the biggest of the whole run, the wind is offshore or glassy, and the waves will be clean. It’s a beginner-friendly 2.3ft, so it’s not going to fire, but it’s the only time you’ll get a real ride. The crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you might have it to yourself, which is the only perk.

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