The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break down Izquierda, this reef break that’s consistent and open to the north-west. Over the next 16 days, we’re staring down a dry, ugly stretch. There’s nothin’ worth paddlin’ for, so keep your expectations low.
Startin’ Sunday the 30th of August, you got a north swell at about 5 feet, but the wind’s tearin’ out of the NNE at 15 mph straight onshore. It’s messy, combines to moderate wave energy (392), and the wave report says poor surf. Monday the 31st is flatlined: 4-foot swell, period droppin’ to 8 seconds, same onshore wind at 15–18 mph. Tuesday the 1st of September, Wednesday the 2nd—Wednesday even pushes to 6 feet by midday (energy 480, moderate), but that NNE wind at 15 mph is still onshore trash. Thursday the 3rd the wind shifts to cross-onshore at 9 mph, but swell’s only 5 feet, still poor. We slog through Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th in onshore and cross-onshore wind, swell sinkin’ under 4 feet, energy droppin’ into the 100s. Sunday the 6th, Monday the 7th, and Tuesday the 8th stay weak (2 to 4 feet), choppy, no relief.
Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th keep the poor surf goin’, but Thursday afternoon gives you a pulse: 3-foot swell with a 13-second period—longer period groundswell—and energy at 446 (moderate). But the wind is a fresh north at 18 mph, straight onshore. Just a tease. Friday the 11th of September delivers the biggest energy spike: 6-foot north swell with 11-second period, energy at 828 (strong), but again onshore wind at 18 mph from the NNE. Could be clean, but the wind ruins it. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th stay onshore, 5–5-foot swell, poor.
Finally, Monday the 14th of September, the last session in the window, you get a 3-foot north swell with 8 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-onshore from the NE at 6 mph. The wave report upgrades to “marginal,” with a score of 1 out of 10. Light breeze and small wind ripples. Combined energy is 279 (moderate). It’s the only faint possibility, and it’s still just average.
No standout session here at all across the whole 16 days. If you kite, the onshore northerlies and moderate swell might be your game, but for a surfer, it’s a total washout. Forecasts can shift, so stay tuned. 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.
