Alright folks, Rusty here. We’ve got a 16-day window for this spot, and it’s a real mixed bag. Let’s break it down.
The first bit of decent surf shows up on the 11th of July. Before that, Friday the 10th is looking pretty flat with tiny, knee-high stuff and very ordinary conditions. Nothing to rush out for.
The standout moment is definitely the Saturday morning of the 11th. We’re looking at clean, glassy conditions with a light WNW wind, and a long-period swell from the SSW at 2 feet and a period of 20 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, with a combined energy of 378 (moderate). The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit dramas. This is the best on offer – a classic small-wave morning for a longboard or a twin-fin.
Sunday the 12th morning is also worth a mention with another glassy session, same small SSW swell, though the period drops a touch. The energy is still solid (312). After that, the swell holds around the 2 to 3 feet through Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th, with clean conditions and light winds. It’s not big, but it’s fun, small-wave stuff.
We hit a lull from Wednesday the 15th onwards. The swell drops right off, getting down to 1 to 1 feet, and the energy levels fall away. From the 16th to the 18th, it’s tiny and ordinary, with some poor surf conditions mixed in. The 18th has a bit of a pulse with a very long-period 18-second swell, but it’s still only 1 feet, so it’s a session for the most patient.
The second week is quiet. The 19th and 20th bring a little bump in size to 2 feet, but the wind is messy on the 19th morning, and the 20th morning has onshore wind. From the 21st to the 25th, it’s dribbly little waves at best, with most days delivering poor or very ordinary conditions. By the 24th and 25th, it’s flat.
So, the call is: get in the water on the morning of the 11th or the 12th. That’s your window. After that, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

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.
