Islas de Todos Santos Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming down the pipe for the next couple of weeks.

Alright, to be straight with you, the next week and a half is looking pretty average. There's a lot of cross-onshore wind messing up what could be half-decent waves. The swell is there, but it's not clean. We're looking at a long stretch of marginal to poor conditions from now until around the 23rd of July. The water temp is sitting at about 69°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The standout window is definitely the 23rd of July, Thursday afternoon. That's the one to circle. The wind is forecast to go glassy, and we've got a solid 6ft S swell, with a period of 14 seconds. That's proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy figure is a hearty 1307, so it's got some push. This is a reef break, and that long-period S swell is going to wrap in beautifully. It's an advanced wave, so this isn't for the groms, but for the crew who know what they're doing, it's going to be firing. The wind is light and from the S, so it'll be offshore and clean. Just keep in mind, crowds are sometimes a thing here, so get in early.

The following day, Friday the 24th of July, sees the swell building even more. We're looking at 6ft in the morning, jumping to 8ft by the afternoon, still from the S. The period holds at 14-16 seconds, so it's got serious power. The combined energy hits 2646 in the morning and a massive 3993 in the afternoon. That's a lot of water moving. However, the wind swings back to a cross-onshore from the WNW, which will chop it up. At 8ft, this is strictly for the experts. It's a shame about the wind, because the swell is there.

The rest of the period is a bit of a write-off. There's a small window on the 19th of July, Sunday morning, with a 3ft SW swell and an onshore wind, giving it a marginal call, but it's nothing to write home about. The 27th and 28th of July have some 4ft to 4ft SSW swell with light winds, but the period is a bit shorter and the energy is moderate, so it's more of a fun-size option than a standout.

So, to sum it up: the first week is a wash. The real action is on Thursday the 23rd of July afternoon. That's the day. The 24th has the size but the wind is a problem. The tail end of the period has some small, clean options, but nothing that'll get your heart racing like that Thursday session.

Stay salty,
Rusty
