The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer.
Honestly, the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a bit of a flat, windy story. We’re looking at a stretch that’s pretty much all poor surf conditions right through to mid-month, so don’t get your hopes up for the early days. The break on the radar here is Izquierda, and it’s a consistent reef set-up that’s exposed to the NW, but it just isn’t firing. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
From Friday, September 4th right through to Sunday, September 13th, it’s a total write-off. Every session is marked as poor. We’ve got a constant onshore wind from the north, blowing at 9 to 19 mph, and the swell is small and weak. The combined wave energy is low, mostly sitting under 200 (72 to 202) – that’s just weak, sloppy energy. The period is short, around 5 to 8 seconds, which means no push, and the wind is making it messy. There’s one moment on Monday, September 7th where the period jumps to 12 seconds, and the energy climbs to 387, but the wind is still onshore and strong at 19 mph, so it’s just a lumpy, blown-out mess. Not worth the paddle.
The first glimmer of something rideable doesn’t show until Monday, September 14th. That morning, we get a "marginal" call with 3 ft of swell from the north, period of 8 seconds, and combined energy of 271. The wind is light and cross-onshore from the NNE at just 6 mph, so there’s only small wind ripples. It’s not great, but it’s the best we’ve seen. That afternoon, the wind picks up again to 16 mph onshore, so don’t plan for an all-day session.
After that, it’s back to the same story for the rest of the week – poor surf, onshore wind, and weak swell. The energy levels hover between 111 and 246, with swell heights around 3 ft to 4 ft, but the period is short (6 to 8 seconds) and the wind is never clean.
If you’re desperate for a wave, the Monday, September 14th morning is the only real standout, but it’s marginal. For this area, a blank run like this isn’t unheard of – it tends to stay poor for a stretch before it changes. Forecasts can flip, so keep an eye on it.
Stay patient.

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.
