Guiones Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here with the outlook for Playa Guiones. We've got a solid run of surf stretching across the next couple of weeks, with a few absolute gems tucked in there. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so the usual rash guard or spring suit will do ya.

The pattern starts Friday, July 3rd morning with a clean 3ft SSW groundswell. The period is a lovely 16 seconds, so those waves have real push, but with that long period, it might be a bit straight for the beachbreak – Guiones handles it well though. The cross-off wind from the NE makes for some tidy faces. That combined swell energy is moderate at 737, a good sign we're in for a session.

Saturday the 4th is the first real standout. Morning brings a glassy 3ft SSW swell (573 moderate energy), with the wind flat calm. That is about as perfect as it gets for a longboard or a funboard. The wave quality will be pristine.

Sunday the 5th holds the theme. The morning has a risk of thunderstorms, but the wind is a light cross-off out of the SE and the swell bumps up just a touch to 3ft SW with a cracking 18-second period. The energy is still moderate at 705, but it’s very surfable. Sunday afternoon goes glassy with a 3ft SW swell (650 moderate energy) – another silky session.

Monday the 6th, get up early. Morning is clear and glassy with a 3ft SW groundswell (754 moderate energy). The afternoons are going to get a bit of a cross-on breeze, but the mornings are where it’s at.

The standout of the whole run has to be Tuesday, July 7th morning. We’re looking at a 4ft SW swell with an 18-second period. The combined energy jumps to 1279 – that’s moderate but pushing into strong territory, meaning there’s some real grunt in the water. But the kicker is the glassy, offshore wind from the ENE. This is excellent, powerful wave conditions for experienced surfers. The 4ft is a healthy size, maybe a touch much for total beginners, but for anyone with a bit of time in the water, this is the morning to circle.

Wednesday the 8th continues with a clean 4ft SSW swell in the morning and an offshore breeze from the ENE (991 moderate energy). Thursday the 9th is similar with a 4ft SW swell and offshore NE winds. The energy settles back to moderate (624).

The second week is still offering fun waves, but with less overall consistency. Friday the 10th through to Monday the 13th mornings are mostly glassy or with light offshore winds, but the swell drops back into the 2ft to 3ft range and the period shortens to 13–15 seconds. The energy is in the weak to moderate range (200s–500s). The exception is Thursday the 16th morning, which is flat calm and glassy with a 3ft SSW swell, giving a clean wave but nothing powerful.

So to wrap it up: for the best quality and power, you cannot miss the Tuesday the 7th morning session. But if you want silky, clean longboard waves, the Saturday the 4th and Monday the 6th mornings are your ticket.

Stay stoked,
Rusty.
