The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. Looking at the whole 16-day window, this is a grim run for Izquierda. The guidance says this spot is consistent and exposed to NW swell, but the forecast is basically a long, frustrating stretch of poor surf conditions. There’s a big gap right at the start with no real surf to speak of.

The first bit of swell we see is on Thursday 30th July, but it’s a mess. We’ve got a 4 ft swell from the NNE with a short period of 7 seconds, and a stiff onshore wind from the NNE at 19 mph. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 74°. The combined energy is weak (173). It’s just not worth paddling out for.

It’s a similar story for the next few days. Friday 31st has a 3 ft swell from the north, but the wind is a cross-onshore breeze, making it choppy and bumpy. The energy drops to 107. Saturday 1st August actually sees a shift to a NW swell at 2 ft with a slightly better 10-second period, but the wind is still cross-onshore and the conditions are poor. The energy is moderate (171). You’d be fighting the chop more than riding the wave.

The whole first week is plagued by onshore winds from the north and northeast. The swell heights stay small, mostly under 3 ft, and the periods are short and weak. The combined energy readings are all in the low three-digit range, which is just moderate at best, but the wind ruins everything. It’s a whole lot of nothing.

There’s a noticeable gap with no real improvement. The second week looks a bit better in size but not quality. By Monday 10th August, the swell bumps up to 4 ft from the north, and by Tuesday 11th August, we’re looking at a 5 ft north swell. The combined energy jumps to 364, which is finally moderate to strong. But the wind is still onshore from the north at 12-16 mph, and the period is a short 7 seconds. The conditions are still labeled as poor. The swell is too big for beginners at 5 ft, and with that onshore wind, it’s just a messy, choppy wall.

The biggest swell of the outlook pops up on Wednesday 12th August, with a 5 ft north swell and a slightly better 8-second period. The energy is strong (334). But again, the wind is onshore from the north, and the conditions are poor. It’s a real shame because the size is there, but the wind is completely against us. For a spot like Izquierda, a reef break that likes a NW swell, getting a north swell with constant north wind means it’s just going to be blown out. The consistent crowds here are likely to be disappointed.

After that, the swell starts to fade through the 13th and 14th, still with onshore winds, and the energy drops back into the mild range. There is no standout session in this entire 16-day forecast. The whole period is a write-off. Keep the board in the car and check the forecast again next week – 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.
