The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a rough stretch ahead for Izquierda. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty frustrating, so let's break it down.
We’re starting off with a real bummer. From Monday the 27th of July, right through until Saturday the 8th of August, it’s basically a write-off. The wind is hammering onshore from the north almost constantly, and the swell is short-period, chunky, and messy. Even when the swell height ticks up a bit, it’s not offering any quality. The combined wave energy is weak to moderate (233 on Monday morning), but it’s all blown out. You’d be fighting a moderate breeze and poor surf every session. That’s a solid two-week gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
The only faint glimmer of hope comes right at the very end of the forecast. On Sunday the 9th of August, the swell bumps up noticeably. We’re looking at 6ft to 7ft from the north, with a period of 8 seconds. That’s a decent amount of water – the combined energy jumps to a strong 492 – but that onshore wind is still there, turning it into a choppy, cross-onshore mess. It’s powerful, but it’s not clean. And by Monday the 10th, the wind is howling at 22 mph, making it only for the hardcore or the kite surfers. The setup here is a reef, which can handle swell, but with that wind, it’s not going to be a pretty sight.
So, to be honest, there’s no standout session. The best on offer is that Sunday the 9th if you’re desperate for a wave and don’t mind the chop, but don’t expect anything glassy. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there. Just one of those bleak runs where the forecasts need to change. Hang in there.
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.
