Table - best surf conditions forecast for Izquierda over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here, but in feet and miles.
Let’s be honest: the next 16 days are a total bust. There’s no good surf on offer. The wind is a constant problem, blowing straight onshore from the north almost every day, and the waves are just a mess.
The first little bump in energy comes on Sunday, July 14th, but it’s not worth your time. The swell is from the northwest, but the onshore north-northeast wind is going to chop it up. The combined energy is moderate (162 to 247), but it’s not going to be clean.
The whole 16-day stretch is a complete blank. The only break in the guidance is Izquierda, a consistent reef break that likes the northwest swell. But it doesn’t matter. The forecast is "poor surf conditions" for every single session. The wind is relentless, blowing onshore at 10 to 22 mph, which just ruins everything.
There is a spike in energy around July 24th, with combined swell energy hitting 551 and 836, and wave heights around 7 ft. But it’s coming with a 19-22 mph onshore wind. That’s not going to be surfable for a paddle. If you’re into kite surfing, that setup on July 24th at Izquierda might be interesting with that strong onshore wind and some size, but for a surfboard, it’s a hard no. The water temp is about 72°F, which is average for this time of year, with a minor anomaly of about 2°F warmer.
So, plain and simple: there’s nothing to chase. The forecast is ugly, and it stays ugly. Sometimes you get these runs, especially in a spot like this, where the consistency is low and the wind is against you. We just have to wait for the pattern to shift. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a dry spell.
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.
