The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day run for Izquierda is a tough one. We’ve got a blank stretch of poor surf conditions right through the first week and into the second, so don’t bother paddling out until we’re well past the first week. The water temp is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s something.
The first real chance of anything surfable comes around Sunday the 13th of September, and even then it’s marginal. That morning you’ll see a 4ft swell from the north with a 7-second period, combined energy at 219 (moderate) – but the wind is cross-onshore from the NW, so it’ll be lumpy. Not a day to get excited about.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Monday the 15th of September. We’ve got a 3ft swell from the NW with a 10-second period, combined energy of 188 (moderate). The wind is from the ENE, cross-shore, so the surface might have a bit of cross-chop but it’s the cleanest we’ll see all forecast. It’s a reef break that’s consistent and exposed to the NW swell, and the optimum swell direction is NW, so that’s a match. Crowds are possible here sometimes. Still, at 3ft, it’s small, and the period is okay but not spectacular. For a reef break, a longer period would be better, but this is what we’ve got.
The rest of the second week is a similar story – small, onshore or cross-onshore winds, and weak energy. The morning of Wednesday the 16th of September has a 2ft swell from the north with a 12-second period, combined energy of 281 (moderate), but it’s cross-onshore and choppy. Not worth the effort.
Overall, the pick of a poor bunch is the morning of Monday the 15th – small, cleanish, but don’t expect much. The first week is a write-off. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because it tends not to stay this flat forever.
Rusty.

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