Table - best surf conditions forecast for Izquierda over the next 16 days.
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for the only spot on the radar: Izquierda.
Honestly, if you’re looking for something to get stoked about over the next 16 days, you’re going to need a lot of patience. We’ve got a long, long stretch of small, onshore junk ahead of us. The wind is blowing straight onto the break almost the entire time, and the swell is tiny and weak. For the first four days, we’re looking at ankle-biters of 0.3ft to 0.9ft from the north, with a short, weak bump around 5 to 7 seconds. The combined wave energy is pathetic – we’re talking values of 25 up to 60 (weak energy). The water temp is sitting at a warm 72°F out there, which is pretty standard for this time of year.
As we roll into the second weekend, specifically Sunday the 12th of July afternoon, we finally see a small pulse of energy. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the NW with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy hits 180 (moderate energy), but that damned onshore wind is still blowing, keeping it messy. It’s still a no-go.
The middle of the second week, around Thursday the 16th of July, we get some bigger numbers, with swell heights reaching 6ft from the NNE. The energy jumps up to 249 (strong energy), but the wind turns cross-onshore, making it choppy and lumpy. The wave comment says it all: "moderate cross-onshore and choppy." Not the clean, lined-up reef we want.
From late in the second week through the 22nd of July, we see a consistent run of 4ft to 5ft swell from the north with period around 6 to 7 seconds. The wave energy sits in the strong range, topping out at 273 on the 22nd. But again, the wind is relentless, straight onshore from the NNE at 15 to 25 mph. It's going to be blown out, bumpy, and frustrating. For a spot like Izquierda, which is a consistent reef break that needs clean conditions, this is a tough watch.
There is no standout. There is no best day. If the wind ever turns offshore, the swell is too small. If the swell gets some size, the wind is howling onshore. There’s nothing here to recommend for a paddle surfer. For anyone with a kite, the stronger afternoon sea breezes and the 5ft+ choppy swell from the 16th onwards might look more interesting.
Keep an eye on it, but for now, find something else to do. This is a blank run.

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.
