The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – we're looking at a pretty bleak stretch ahead for this part of the coast. The only break on the table is Izquierda, a consistent reef that’s exposed to the north-west swell, but she's just not cooperating at all for the next fortnight.

Right from the get-go on Thursday, August 13th, it's a write-off. We've got a moderate breeze blowing onshore at 15 mph, mushing up a 3.6ft swell coming from the north with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined swell energy is a modest 214, and the wave comment says it all: "poor surf conditions". To make matters worse, the water temperature is sitting at 74.1°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

This theme just keeps going. Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are more of the same – onshore winds, small swell in the 3.9ft to 4.6ft range with short, weak periods. The wind doesn't let up; it's a constant NNE or N breeze between 12 and 19 mph. We head into Sunday the 16th and Monday the 17th with the same story: onshore winds, poor surf. The swell period climbs a touch to 8 seconds by the 17th, but the energy stays low (170) and the winds are still ruining it.

The second week is a long, grim march. From the 18th through to the morning of the 28th of August, every single entry is marked "poor surf conditions". The swell hangs around 2.6ft to 4.6ft, mostly from the north, with periods between 7 and 9 seconds. There's a tiny flicker of hope on the 21st afternoon, but the energy drops to a weak 87. The wind occasionally lightens up to a gentle breeze on the 18th and 19th, but it's still mostly onshore. The entire 16-day window is a total blank for decent waves. There's no standout to recommend, no good call to make. You'd be better off staying on the beach. For this area, a blank run like this is pretty normal.

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.
