The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at what’s on the menu for our local stretch.
Escollera Necochea (beach and reef)
We’ve got a bit of a patchy outlook here, but there are a couple of windows that’ll get the blood pumping. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, so nothing weird there.
Wednesday morning the 12th kicks things off with a solid 5ft S swell at 10 seconds, and the wind is light and offshore from the north. That’s going to be clean, fun surf with a good amount of energy pushing through (combined energy of 666). It’s a nice start, but the real standout is a bit further out.
The period from Wednesday the 19th into Thursday the 20th is a write-off, with poor conditions and messy wind, so we’ll skip that.
Now, the big one. Monday the 24th is looking like the true highlight of this whole 16-day block. Swell jumps to a solid 8ft from the S, with a 10-second period, and the wind is offshore from the north. The energy is pumping (combined energy of 1177), and it’s clean. This is excellent surf, but for experienced surfers only – at that size, it’s too much for beginners. Tuesday the 25th is still good, with a drop to 6ft S swell and clean, glassy conditions in the afternoon, but the 24th is the day to circle.
Honestly, apart from that Wednesday the 12th and the big Monday, the rest of the two weeks is pretty average. There are some days with marginal or poor conditions, with onshore winds and choppy seas. The 26th and 27th taper off into small, ordinary waves.
Rusty.

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