Alright, Rusty here, let's take a look at what's coming up for Guarita.

The first week is a bit of a mixed bag. We have some solid swell but the winds often let us down, making it a game of picking the right session for this exposed reef. Saturday the 4th of July is a standout, with a punchy 7ft SSE groundswell and a long 12-second period generating strong wave energy (1130). The morning has a gentle cross-offshore wind from the north, keeping things clean. This is for advanced surfers only – it's going to be heavy. The water temp is running much colder than normal for this time of year at 60°F (-2° anomaly), so you'll want a good wetsuit.

Sunday the 5th of July morning is another good call, with a smaller 5ft SSE swell but that same long period (11s) and a light cross-offshore wind. Expect very good, clean surf. Crowds are possible here at times.

We then hit a lull. From Monday the 6th through to Thursday the 9th, the swell drops right off and the quality is ordinary. It’s a gap of a few days with nothing worth writing home about.

The second week starts to show a bit more life, but it's less certain. Monday the 13th of July morning looks promising, with a 5ft S swell, a short 9-second period, and light cross-offshore wind. The energy is moderate (556). It's a cleaner window.

The real long-range standout is Tuesday the 14th of July morning. A clean 5ft SSE swell with an 11-second period and glassy conditions. The wave energy is moderate (762). It’s a chance for a really clean session, but it’s far out, so keep an eye on the forecasts. Later in the week, Wednesday the 15th of July sees a big jump in size, with 6ft S swell in the morning and 7ft in the afternoon. Strong to very strong energy (1338-2211), but the winds turn cross-onshore and choppy, so it’s not the best quality for the paddle surfer.

That being said, the standout pick for the whole period is Saturday the 4th of July morning.

Rusty.

Information about the Guarita Surf forecast

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