The Lowdown
Alright, listen up. I’m gonna be straight with you. The next 16 days here are a total bust. The wind is blowing straight onshore from the north-northeast almost the whole time, and that’s just the end of it. The swell is there, but it’s all chopped-up, short-period wind swell that’s not worth a paddle.
Starting Monday, July 20th, it’s a mess. A fresh breeze at 22 mph from the NNE, with a 6 ft swell that’s got no power. The combined energy is moderate, around 270, but it’s all junk. The water is 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal, but that’s the only good thing.
All through that first week, the wind stays on, 19 to 22 mph, and the swell fluctuates between 5 ft and 7 ft, but the period never gets above 8 seconds. It’s just slop.
We get a little break in the wind on the 27th and 28th, down to a moderate breeze of 16 mph, but the swell drops to 4 ft, and the energy fades to a weak 145. Not worth it.
The 29th of July is the only thing that looks even remotely interesting. A 4 ft swell with a period of 10 seconds, giving a bit more push, and the energy is moderate at 324. But the wind is still a fresh 19 mph onshore. The waves might have a bit more shape, but the surface will be blown out.
The first week of August is a repeat. The swell gets tiny, down to 2 ft on the 31st, with weak energy. The wind finally drops to a gentle breeze from the NW on the 1st of August, but it’s a cross-on direction, leaving us with a “gentle cross-onshore and fairly choppy” wave state. It’s the best of a bad lot, but that’s not saying much.
So, there it is. No standouts. No good options. Izquierda is a consistent reef, but with the wind and swell coming from the north, it’s a complete write-off for the entire 16 days. Don’t bother. Go find a lake. This is a long stretch of nothing.

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.
