The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin' over the next couple of weeks.
Truth is, this is gonna be a tough stretch for paddle surfing. For the first several days, the wind is gonna be your enemy – blowing straight onshore from the north and northeast, and it’s not light. We’ve got a solid run of poor surf conditions right through until the end of next week, with the swell getting pushed around by a moderate to fresh breeze. The water is running about average for the time of year, so nothing weird there.
Now, there’s one little glimmer. On Monday the 14th, the morning looks absolutely magic at Izquierda (La Palma). The wind goes glassy – that’s a zero on the wind scale, perfect. Swell is a clean 3 ft from the NNW with a long period of 13 seconds, so there’s some proper groundswell energy in the water (energy reading of 284). That long period means it’s going to wrap around onto this reef nicely, and you’ll be looking at clean, lined-up waves. It’s a consistent spot, so it should be worth the paddle. Just keep an eye out – it can get crowded there sometimes, but on a Monday morning you might get a window.
But be warned: that afternoon the wind swings back onshore, and that’s it for the day. The rest of that week and the following week? It’s a lot of onshore wind and increasing swell size. By the 18th and 19th of September, we’re looking at 7 ft to 7 ft from the north with a moderate energy jump (over 650), but the onshore wind is still there, making it a choppy mess. For advanced guys only at that size, and honestly, with the onshore wind, it’s looking more like a kiter’s playground than a surfer’s dream.
So, the long and short of it: if you’ve got a free Monday morning on the 14th, get out there. Other than that, keep the board in the car and wait for a change in 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.
