Alright, Rusty here again, same story but in feet.
Honestly, it’s a pretty bleak run for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a solid 16-day window here, but the surf is going to be a real struggle. Right from the start on Monday the 6th of July, it’s tiny and onshore. That sets the tone for a long, dry spell.
We’re looking at a gap that stretches all the way from Monday the 6th right through to around Saturday the 18th of July. During that whole stretch, the swell is barely a whisper—mostly around 1.0 to 3ft—and the wind is hammering out of the north or north-northeast, straight onshore. The combined wave energy is weak, sitting under 100, which confirms there’s just no push. Water temp is a touch warmer than normal at 72°F, but that’s small comfort when the waves are junk.
The only real glimmer of hope comes right at the tail end of the forecast. Around late Sunday the 19th of July and into Monday the 20th, we finally see a pulse of proper groundswell. The swell direction swings around to the northwest, the period jumps to 10-12 seconds, and the combined energy hits a strong 342-376. That’s serious energy for this spot. Swell heights are around 3-4ft, which is still manageable for intermediates, but the long period means it’ll be lining up better at a reef like Izquierda—it won’t just close out. The drawback? The wind is still fresh and onshore, so it’s going to be lumpy and won’t be that clean, glassy perfection we dream of. Still, if you’re desperate, that Sunday into Monday is the only time the ocean shows any real life.
After that, it drops back down again. Tuesday the 21st sees a little 4ft windswell, but the energy is moderate and the cross-onshore wind kills the quality.
So, bottom line: if you can wait, the standout is the Sunday the 19th into Monday the 20th. That 3-4ft NW groundswell has enough period (10-12 seconds) to make Izquierda work, even with the wind messing with it. Everything else is a write-off. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because it can’t stay this bad forever.
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.
