Table - best surf conditions forecast for Izquierda over the next 16 days.
Alright, listen up, folks. Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer. It’s a pretty bleak run for the whole 16-day window, to be honest. We’re looking at a stretch where the conditions just don’t line up for a good paddle. The wind is a constant problem, and the wave quality is reflected in that.
Things start off on Monday, July 13th, with a 3ft swell from the NNW, but the NNE wind is a cross-onshore at 9 mph, making it a choppy, messy affair. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 73°, but that’s about the only good news. That rough, onshore wind pattern sticks around day after day. The swell sticks around the 3ft to 5ft range through the first week, but with the wind howling from the NNE and NE at 9 to 19 mph, it’s all cross-onshore or onshore junk. The combined wave energy is weak to moderate, hitting a peak of 227 on Saturday the 18th, but it’s all wind-slop.
The second week doesn’t get any better. From the 21st of July onwards, the swell is still small, between 3ft and 4ft, and the wind stays unfriendly. Even towards the end of the window, on the 27th and 28th of July, when the swell bumps up to 6ft from the N with a period of 8 seconds and the combined energy jumps to 382, the wind is still on it from the N and NNW at 16 mph. It’s just not a setup for a clean surf.
There’s literally no standout day here. The wind is the main villain. Every single session is marked as poor surf conditions. If you were thinking of trying to get wet, don’t bother. For a consistent reef like Izquierda, this is a rare blank run. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer right now, with the persistent onshore wind and small, lumpy waves. Keep an eye on the forecast, because it tends not to stay this poor for long.
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.
