The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the stretch ahead.

Well, I gotta be straight with you – the start of this outlook is a real tough one. There’s a long gap of over a week with nothing worth paddling out for. The conditions are just stubborn with strong onshore winds from the north and north-northeast, blowing at 18 to 22 mph, locking the waves in a poor, messy state. We’re looking at a solid 5 ft to 7 ft of north swell, but the wind is ruining everything. The combined wave energy is moderate to strong (around 204 to 552), but it’s all junk. The period is short, between 7 and 8 seconds, so it’s just windslop. For Izquierda, a reef break that’s consistent and exposed to the northwest, this north wind is just wrong. The water temperature is 72°F with a small anomaly of 1°F, so it’s about average for the time of year, which is one small comfort.

The first flicker of hope comes on Saturday, the 1st of August. The morning session is the only thing that gets a score of 1 out of 10, still just marginal. The wind finally drops right off to a very light 3 mph from the northeast, turning cross-onshore, but the swell is only 5 ft from the north at 8 seconds. It’s still a bit wind-affected, but for the first time in a while, it’s not completely blown out. The combined energy is moderate (248). It’s a small window of mediocrity, but it’s the best we’ve got.

After that, the onshore winds return and the whole thing goes flat again. The swell drops right down to 2 ft by the 5th of August, with a shift to a west-northwest direction and a period of 10 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, but it’s tiny. The combined energy is weak (144 to 180). The wind is still onshore, so it’s a no-go.

Then, on the 6th of August, we see a spike in the swell energy. The combined energy jumps to 341 (moderate) with a 3 ft north swell at a very long 11 seconds. But the wind is from the north-northeast at 12 mph, making it a moderate cross-onshore with choppy conditions. It’s a tease. The period is great for a reef like Izquierda, but the wind and the small size make it another write-off.

So, for the next 16 days, there are no standouts, no real highlights. The best on offer is that Saturday morning, 1st of August, where you might get a few crumbly, wind-affected waves if you’re desperate. But honestly, this is a blank run for the area. It’s a tough patch, but forecasts can change, and it won’t stay this poor 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.
