The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the coming days.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a grim picture for the next couple of weeks. The forecast is a long, dry spell of poor conditions. The only break on the radar is Izquierda, a consistent reef break that needs a decent swell to get going, and it's just not happening.
The first real chance of anything surfable comes on the 15th of September. We've got a pulse of energy rolling in, with the combined energy hitting a solid 793 (strong) Tuesday morning. The swell is from the NNW at 3ft, with a very long period of 16 seconds. That's a proper groundswell, which is a big positive for a reef setup like Izquierda. The wind is from the North at 9 mph, so it's onshore, which is a shame. It won't be perfect, but the energy is there. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, around 75°.
Tuesday afternoon sees the swell bump up to 4ft from the NNW, still with a long 14-second period, and the energy is still high at 761. The wind picks up to 16 mph from the North, which is still onshore, but the sheer size and period might make it the most interesting window in the whole 16 days. That said, at 4ft with that long period, it could be a bit walled-up and not the easiest to ride, but for the experienced crew, it's likely the best bet.
After that, the swell drops off again. Wednesday the 16th has some chest-high waves from the NNW (4ft, 13-second period) with onshore wind, but the energy is still moderate to strong (615). By Thursday the 17th, it's fading fast.
Honestly, for the next two weeks, this is a tough one. The long-range pulse on the 15th and 16th is a standout, but it's a long way off and the wind is working against us. For now, it's a case of watching the charts and hoping the models shift. There's nothing on offer for the next two weeks except a few days of potential in the middle of September.
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.
