The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Honestly, looking at the next two weeks, we’ve got a bit of a wait on our hands. The first proper surf window doesn't show up until the middle of next week. Before that, it’s a no-go. From now through to the 13th of September, the wind is howling onshore and the swell is messy. You’ll see some energy in the water – the combined swell energy hits some decent numbers like 396 (moderate) – but with a stiff north-northeast wind blowing straight onto the face, it’s just no good. Expect a lot of chop and blown-out lines. Don’t bother paddling out until things clean up.
The real standout, the only window worth circling, is the morning of Monday the 14th of September. We’re looking at Izquierda – a consistent reef break that’s exposed to the northwest. The swell is a modest 4 ft from the north, with a period of 8 seconds. That’s your typical short-period windswell, but here’s the magic: the wind goes glassy. Glassy. A light easterly breeze at 3 mph, basically dead calm. The water temp is about average for the time of year. The combined energy hitting the reef is 263 (moderate), and the forecast calls for good surf conditions. For a break that’s usually getting hammered by the wind, this is a rare treat. The waves will be clean, lined up, and perfect for an intermediate surfer. Just keep an eye out – it can get crowded here sometimes.
After that Monday morning window, the wind swings back onshore and the conditions deteriorate again. The rest of the week looks like a write-off with strong north winds and poor surf quality. By the time we hit the 20th of September, the swell energy drops right off. The combined energy falls to 99 (weak) and below, with tiny 2 ft to 3 ft waves. The last week of the forecast is a flat spell.
So, bottom line: if you can, get out there on the morning of the 14th. That’s your session. The rest of the run is a miss.
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.
