The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Izquierda.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next couple of weeks look pretty grim for any decent paddle surfing. There’s a solid run of onshore wind that just won't let up, and that’s gonna make a mess of things. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor conditions from now until the end of July, with that northerly wind blowing straight onshore. It’s a real bummer, because there’s swell in the water, but it’s all wind-affected and lumpy. You’ll see those combined energy figures sitting between 239 and 573, which is moderate to strong wave energy, but it’s completely wasted.
The water temp is sitting at 72.9°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won't be freezing your toes off while you're watching the wind chop.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't come until the very end of the run. On Sunday, August 2nd, the early morning session shows a bit of promise. The swell is down from the north at 7.2ft with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy jumps up to 1063, which is very strong. The wind is still onshore, but it's a moderate breeze, not a fresh one. The forecast calls it "marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions," not a total write-off. It's a long way out, but if you’re desperate, that’s the only window that might be worth a look. For that day, the swell is pushing 7.2ft, which is pushing it for beginners but getting into the fun zone for the more experienced crew.
Honestly, for the rest of it, with that persistent onshore wind, this setup looks a lot more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing. It’s a tough 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.
