The Lowdown
Alright, grab a seat. Let me tell you how it’s looking for Izquierda.
Honestly, mate, it’s a rough stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for decent waves. There’s a real gap with no surf worth paddling out for right from the start, and it just keeps going. We’ve got a run of poor surf conditions that’s gonna last for days on end.
Monday afternoon, August 31st, kicks things off with a 5ft north swell, but the wind is onshore and strong at 30 km/h. The combined energy is weak (264), and it’s just messy. That pattern sticks around. Tuesday and Wednesday of that first week the swell sticks around 5ft to 6ft, all from the north, with periods around 7 to 8 seconds, but the wind is fresh and onshore – 30 to 35 km/h. The energy climbs to moderate (426) on Wednesday morning, but it’s all blown out. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 75°, but that doesn’t help the surf.
Thursday through to the following Monday, it’s more of the same – small swell, mostly 3ft to 4ft, with onshore or cross-onshore winds. The combined energy dips to weak levels (123-236). It’s just not worth the effort.
The second week doesn’t offer any relief. From Tuesday, September 8th, onwards, the swell drops even more, barely hitting 4ft, and the wind keeps blowing onshore or cross-onshore. The energy is weak (114-337). There’s a tiny glimmer on Sunday, September 13th, with a 2ft north swell and a period of 11 seconds, but the wind is still onshore at 30 km/h. The energy is moderate (220), but it’s a big “no thanks” from me.
By the final days, September 15th, we’re looking at a tiny 1ft to 3ft with onshore winds. The energy is very weak (71-77). There’s nothing here for a surfer.
So, bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. Izquierda (Izquierda) is a consistent reef break that’s exposed to the north-west, but the wind and swell just aren’t lining up. The poor conditions are a real drag. Keep an eye on the long-range, but for now, it’s a flat and windy scene.

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.
