The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
Looking at the next sixteen days for Izquierda, I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s a long, slow grind. For the first ten days, from September 11th on, it’s all onshore northerly wind, 15 to 25 mph, and the swell is small and short-period. We see waves up to 4-5ft from the North on a few days, but the wind is ruining it and the combined energy never gets above moderate (max 369). The water temp is about 74.5°, which is normal for the season. Sunday the 13th has a light breeze by afternoon, but the swell is 4.3ft with a lousy 8-second period and the combined energy is 275 (weak to moderate). Still onshore. Not worth it.
There’s a little pulse late in the second week. Tuesday the 22nd of September morning has a long-period 2ft swell from the NNW with a 14-second period – that’s groundswell, energy of 246 (moderate), but the wind is onshore from the NNE at 9 mph. Still messy.
The one absolute standout, the only day worth marking on the calendar, is Saturday the 26th of September. That morning is dead glassy – a slight air from the NNE at just 3 mph – with a 4.6ft NNW groundswell and a very long 14-second period. The combined energy is a strong 902. This is the session. A reef like Izquierda will handle that long-period groundswell perfectly. 4.6ft is beyond beginner territory, but fine for the intermediate and expert crew. The wind is perfect. Crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you know there will be a few out, but it won’t be a circus. The afternoon side ons again, so you’ve got a narrow window. The gap before this is a solid two weeks of poor quality. Get that Saturday morning if you can.
Short Range ForecastMostly dry. Warm (max 25°C on Sun night, min 22°C on Fri afternoon). Winds decreasing (fresh winds from the N on Fri afternoon, light winds from the E by Sun night). | Days 5-7 Weather SummaryMostly dry. Warm (max 29°C on Tue morning, min 21°C on Wed night).

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.
