The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve been staring at the charts for Izquierda, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a grim run for the next 16 days. The whole outlook is a write-off. There’s not a single session I’d call good, not one. The forecast is 100% "poor surf conditions" every single day, so I’m not gonna sugarcoat it.
We’ve got a consistent reef break here, intermediate-level, exposed to the swell, and it wants the swell from the NW. But the wind is the killer. From now until the end of the forecast on August 13th, it’s howling from the NNE and N, mostly onshore or cross-onshore, at 15 to 22 mph. That’s a fresh to strong breeze, and it’s just going to trash any wave that tries to stand up. The swell is there, sure – mostly around 3 to 5 ft from the north, with periods of 6 to 8 seconds, so it’s just short-period, choppy windswell. The combined swell energy is moderate, hitting between 115 and 307, but it doesn’t matter: with that wind and direction, it’s unsurfable.
The water’s sitting at 73°F at the start, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only good news. Even the bigger push of swell around 5 ft on August 8th, 9th, and 10th is completely blown out. That 5 ft is too much for beginners anyway, but even for experts, it’s junk with a 22 mph wind slamming it shut.
There’s no standout. There’s no hope. I’d say look elsewhere, because Izquierda is a no-go for the entire 16-day window. If you’re not surfing, you might as well take the boards off the car.
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.
