Table - best surf conditions forecast for Izquierda over the next 16 days.
Alright crew, Rusty here with the straight dope. It’s a grim 16 days ahead at Izquierda. No surf to speak of, not a single recommendation in the whole window.
Saturday the 11th of July kicks off with a flat 2 ft north swell, a period of only 5 seconds, and a combined energy of 34 – that’s nothing. A light NNE breeze is blowing, but the surf is just terrible.
The whole first week is a total washout. Sunday through Thursday, the swell barely moves, staying between 1 ft and 4 ft, all from the north or northwest. Winds are cross-on or onshore, keeping the surface choppy and messy. The energy stays weak, in the 80–188 range. No point even looking at it.
Heading into the second week, it gets worse. From Friday the 17th right through to Sunday the 26th, the swell builds to 5 ft up to 7 ft, but it’s all under a relentless 19 mph north wind. The combined energy jumps into the 300–770 range, so there’s plenty of power, but it’s all blown out. For a reef setup, that’s unridable. It’s a kite surfer’s paradise, not a surfer’s.
Water temp is 71°F, which is about normal for this time of year. That’s the only bright spot. There’s nothing on the horizon. This is one of those stretches where you just have to wait. For this area, a dry spell like this isn’t unheard of, but it’s still a bummer. Let’s hope the models shift.
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.
