The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way.
To be honest, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead. We’ve got a long run of poor surf conditions with almost nothing to get excited about. The whole first week and a half is a write-off, with a big gap of no real recommendations until we get to the middle of the second week. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s one small comfort if you’re just having a splash.
The only real flicker of light comes on Monday, September 14th at Izquierda (reef). Early that morning, we get a small 2ft swell from the NNW with a long 13-second period, which is proper groundswell. The energy is moderate at 203, and the wind is light and cross-shore, so it’ll be clean. The problem is it’s marginal, with questionable tide conditions. It’s a tricky one, but for a reef break that handles long-period swell well, it might just offer a few clean lines if you time it right. Crowds are possible here, so you might have company.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. Winds stay onshore or cross-onshore, mostly from the N and NNE, with swell sizes that don’t really break 5ft until the 12th, but even then the wind and short period (6-8 seconds) ruin any chance of quality. The energy stays moderate, hitting 442 on the 12th, but with onshore wind and a short-period swell, it’s just messy.
The week of the 16th to the 22nd is more of the same: small, short-period NW and N swells, with onshore winds. The 16th Wednesday morning has a clean cross-offshore wind from the ESE, but the swell is a tiny 2ft with a weak 7-second period and only 99 energy, so you’re barely getting a ripple. Not worth paddling out for.
This is a real dry spell. There’s nothing here that’s consistent or firing. Keep your board waxed and hope the forecasts change, because right now, it’s a long wait for a very short window.
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.
