The Lowdown
Alright, let me break it down.
Honestly, there’s nothing worth paddling out for at Izquierda over the next sixteen days. This reef break normally has consistent surf, but the wind and conditions are a total bust. Starting on Sunday, August 23rd, you’ve got a 3-foot north swell with a 10-second period, but the wind is onshore at 15 mph and the water is messy—combined energy is low (223). Monday the 24th sees a 6-foot swell from the NNW with a 12-second period, moderate energy (944), but again it’s blown out from the north at 12 mph. That’s the story all the way through to September 7th: the swell direction is mostly north to NNW, which is ideal for this spot, but the wind never turns offshore. It stays onshore or cross-onshore, and by Friday the 28th and Saturday the 29th it picks up to 22 mph, making the surface lumpy. On the 29th there’s a 7-foot north swell with a 9-second period, strong energy (839), but with that cross-onshore breeze it’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. After that, the swell drops to 3 to 5 feet through early September, still with onshore winds hammering it. The whole sixteen-day window is a blank run—no good waves at all. This spot is usually pretty consistent, so a run like this is unusual, and forecasts can change, but right now there’s nothing to chase.

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.
