The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about this next stretch.

Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be honest with you – this is looking pretty grim. We’re talking about a solid 16 days of nothing much to get excited about for Izquierda. The whole run is littered with "poor surf conditions" across the board, and the wind is a major problem. It’s a real bummer because the break itself is a consistent reef setup that usually handles a bit of swell.

Saturday, August 29th, through Sunday, August 30th: We start with a bit of size, around 5 ft to 6 ft from the North, but it’s all blown out. A fresh breeze from the NNE and N is smashing the surface, making it cross-on and onshore, so the waves are lumpy and choppy. The combined wave energy is moderate, hitting 929 on Saturday morning, but it’s all for nothing with that wind. The period is around 9-11 seconds, so there’s some groundswell energy in there, but it’s getting ruined.

Monday, September 1st, through Wednesday, September 10th: The swell drops off slowly, hanging around 4 ft to 5 ft, mostly from the North. The period drops to 8 seconds or less, so it’s weaker, shorter-period windswell. The combined energy falls to the 150-300 range, so it’s weak to moderate. The wind stays onshore or cross-onshore, with a fresh breeze often making it lumpy. There’s a brief moment on Thursday, September 3rd afternoon, with a gentle breeze, but it’s still cross-onshore and fairly choppy – not a standout.

Thursday, September 11th, through Saturday, September 13th: The swell stays small, dropping to 3 ft to 4 ft. The wind remains a problem, onshore or cross-onshore. The combined energy is weak, mostly under 250. The only thing that changes is a weird spike on Saturday, September 12th afternoon, where the swell direction swings to the WNW with a very long period of 18 seconds, but the swell height is only 1 ft, and the wind is a fresh onshore. That’s not going to do anything.

Honestly, the best of a bad lot might be the very small window on Thursday, September 3rd afternoon, with a gentler breeze, but it’s still a cross-onshore short-period 5 ft wave. It’s not surfable in any meaningful way.

The bottom line: There is no standout session here. The wind is the main villain for the entire 16 days, and the swell is either too small, too short-period, or both. This is a washout for Izquierda. I’d be looking at other hobbies for a while.

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.
