The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Izquierda.
First off, the honest truth is we’ve got a long dry spell ahead. The next week and a half is pretty much a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. The wind is a constant problem, howling onshore or cross-onshore day after day, and the swell is a mess of short-period, weak lines. The combined energy values are all over the place, but even when there’s a bit of a pulse in the swell, like Saturday the 12th with a combined energy of 420, the onshore wind is just ruining it completely. It’s going to be choppy, lumpy, and pretty much unrideable. If you’re into kite surfing, the strong cross-onshore winds and that bumpy water might be your thing, but for a surfboard, it’s a no-go.
Things are looking grim until the second week. There’s a glimmer of hope on the morning of Monday the 14th of September. It’s a stand-out moment, but it’s a short one. The wind drops right out, going glassy, and we get a long-period groundswell from the NNW at 13 seconds, pushing in a small 2ft wave. The energy is moderate at 239, but that clean, glassy surface will make it look better than it is. This is the only shot we’ve got for a clean wave, and it’s tiny. It’ll be a longboard or a funboard morning, with the potential for a few really smooth, lined-up waves if you’re patient. The combined energy of all swells directed here will be moderate (239).
After that morning, it’s back to the onshore wind and the small, messy stuff. The swell does start to build again towards the end of the forecast period, with the 22nd of September showing a solid 6ft from the NNE, but again, the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, and the period is a short 8 seconds. The energy will be strong (718), but the quality will be poor. It’s a frustrating pattern, but forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this poor for long.
So, to sum it up: the only real standout is that glassy Monday morning the 14th. It’s tiny, but it’s clean. Everything else is a battle against the wind.
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.
