The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, but in feet for the metric-averse.
Let’s be straight up about Izquierda. The next 16 days are looking grim.
Friday 11th through Sunday 13th is a total bust. North wind at 15–22 mph, blowing straight onshore. There’s some choppy waist-high swell, but it’s short-period junk at 7–8 seconds. The wave energy is moderate at best, but that wind just kills any chance of a clean face.
Monday 14th drops to tiny, weak swell – barely 2–2 ft. Still cross-onshore wind. Don’t bother.
Tuesday 15th through Thursday 17th is a mix of even smaller stuff and then a spike of that north windswell again, all with onshore wind at 12–18 mph. No good.
Friday 18th brings a solid pulse – 5 ft from the north, period up to 9 seconds, energy at 455 – strong. But the wind is still hammering straight onshore at 15 mph. It’s going to be a bumpy, blown-out mess.
The only change comes late in the window. Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd see the swell shift to the NNW and period jump to 13–15 seconds – that’s proper long-period groundswell. The energy on the 22nd morning hits 712 – strong. The reef should handle that long-period juice beautifully. But again, the wind is cross-onshore or onshore. It’s frustrating because the swell quality is there, but the wind is the enemy. Water temp is normal for this time of year.
Honestly, there is no standout day. The 22nd has the best raw swell, but the wind ruins it. For a consistent reef like this, it’s a crying shame.
If you’re into kites, the bumpy, windy day on the 18th might be fun. For a proper surf, I’m telling you, leave the board in the car.
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.
