The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board. Rusty here.
Right now, things are pretty flat. The whole 16-day forecast for Izquierda is a tough one. The swell is tiny, the wind is garbage for surfing, and every single session is marked as poor surf conditions. There isn't a single standout day in this entire run. We’re looking at a brutal stretch.
The water at Izquierda is sitting at 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for July – about 3° up on the usual.
Looking at the early part of the run – Tuesday, July 14th through to early next week – we’ve got waves but they’re messy. Swell is coming from the NNW mostly, around 2 ft to 4 ft, with a short and weak period of only 5 to 8 seconds. The combined swell energy (83 to 168) is weak to moderate. The real killer is the wind. It’s blowing from the NNE and N, mostly cross-on or directly onshore, at 9 to 19 mph. That’s just making everything choppy and lumpy. Not worth paddling out.
As we move into the second week, around Monday, July 21st and beyond, the swell starts to build a bit. We see heights reaching 5 ft to 6 ft and the period stretching to 7 or 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs into the moderate range (186 to 569). But that onshore wind doesn’t let up – it stays fresh to strong from the N and NNE, hitting 22 to 25 mph by Tuesday, July 28th. That much wind on a reef break with onshore conditions will make a mess of it. The setup at Izquierda looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing during that window, especially when the swell pushes past 5 ft.
Don't hold your breath on this one. For a consistent spot like Izquierda, a dry spell like this can happen. Forecasts can change, but right now, there's nothing to get excited about.
Stay tuned, but don't get your hopes up.
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.
