Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the outlook for Izquierda.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead. For the next 16 days, there’s just nothing to get excited about. The surf forecast is a long, quiet run of poor conditions. For the first week or so, we’re looking at tiny swell with very weak energy (between 21 and 233), and the wind is a constant problem, hammering in from the north, mostly onshore or cross-onshore which is going to leave it chopped and messy. The water is sitting at 71°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so that’s not the issue.
We start off on Saturday, July 4th, with a 4 ft north swell, but that 12 mph wind is onshore, so it’s just not going to be any good. Sunday morning, July 5th, is even smaller at 3 ft, and the wind is a terrible cross-onshore – it’s a write-off. This flat, windy pattern just keeps going. The first real bump in energy comes on Friday, July 10th, with a 4 ft swell from the north, but again, the wind is onshore and the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s lumpy and weak. The energy value climbs to 112, but it’s still considered poor surf conditions.
The only time the swell gets a bit of size is later on, around Saturday, July 18th, when we see a 5 ft north swell, and the energy jumps to 186. The next day, Sunday, July 19th, the swell holds at 5 ft from the north, with energy hitting 268. That’s moderate wave energy, and while it’s still a north swell, the wind is still blowing onshore at 16 mph. It’s a classic case of a building swell that’s just going to be blown out. For a reef break, that size isn’t too crazy, but with the wind the way it is, it’s going to be messy and not much fun. This setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
There are no standout days here. It’s a long, flat, windy, and disappointing outlook. For a spot that’s known for being consistent, this is a real bummer, but it happens. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the car.
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.
