The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I've taken a long, hard look at what’s coming for Izquierda over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The outlook is a long, flat, windy grind.
We’re kicking off from Saturday the 25th of July, and right out of the gate, it’s no good. There’s some swell, pushing around 6 ft from the north, but the problem is the wind. It’s hammering onshore from the NNE at a solid 22 mph, turning any potential waves into a wind-blown mess. The wave energy is moderate, sitting at 455, but with that wind, you wouldn’t want to be out there.
The poor conditions just keep going day after day. From the 25th right through to the 9th of August, there’s not a single standout session. The wave heights hover around 2 ft to 5 ft, all from the north, and the period is short, between 6 and 10 seconds – that’s a lot of weak, choppy, onshore slop. The wind barely lets up, mostly onshore from the north or NNE, with speeds ranging 12 to 22 mph. Every entry just reads “poor surf conditions”. It’s a total blank run for paddle surfing. With the swell coming straight onshore, the setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than for a paddle board. The water temperature here is a normal 73° for this time of year, so at least you won't freeze.
Even when we get into the first week of August, there’s no better window. The swell tries to pick back up around the 6th, hitting 5 ft again, but it's still with onshore winds. The strongest energy we see is on the 7th at 447, but it's paired with onshore winds and a short period – all energy and no quality. The long-range look for the 8th and 9th of August shows the swell size dropping back under 4 ft and the wind staying onshore. It’s just a persistent, disappointing forecast with no hope for a decent wave.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
