The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour.
It’s a grim run of days at Izquierda. Starting Thursday the 10th of September, the northeast wind is pumping at 30 km/h (about 19 mph) and the waves are lumpy, blown out, and ugly. This onshore northerly airflow sticks around like a bad cold for over a week. There’s some energy in the water – the combined swell energy bounces from around 100 up to 396 on Saturday the 12th – but the north wind is straight onshore or cross-onshore, tearing everything up. Swell direction is mostly from the north, heights between about 3 ft and 5 ft, with a short period of 6 to 8 seconds – no power behind it.
From Thursday through Saturday and into early next week, don’t bother. The one real window is Sunday the 13th in the afternoon. The wind goes dead calm – glassy – from the west-northwest, and the north swell drops to about 4 ft, still with an 8-second period. The combined swell energy sits at 243 – moderate – but that glassy surface makes it the cleanest surf of the whole forecast. For a reef like Izquierda, that’s the only decent call. Monday the 14th morning is also glassy, but the swell is tiny – only 2 ft – with a long 13-second period. That’s too small to do much with at this break.
After that, it’s back onshore wind and slop through the second week. Tuesday the 22nd of September shows a bigger pulse from the north-northwest with a 14-second period, wave heights around 4 ft, and strong energy (756). But the wind is light north, onshore, so it stays messy. Friday the 25th also has a long-period north-northwest swell with energy at 588, but again, onshore wind ruins it.
Bottom line: the only standout is Sunday afternoon the 13th – clean, glassy, waist-high north swell. That’s your best bet. Crowds are likely at Izquierda when it’s half decent, so expect company.
Water temp is about normal for this time of year.
Given all the onshore wind and moderate swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of the stretch.

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.
