The Lowdown
Alright, I’m Rusty, and here’s how it’s lookin’ for Izquierda.
First thing to know, we’re in a rough patch here. The water’s currently a touch warmer than normal at 74.7°, but that’s the only good news. The wind’s been hammering straight onshore, mostly from the north, and that’s trashing any chance of decent surf for over a week. We’re talkin’ a solid gap from the start of the forecast all the way through to the morning of Monday the 14th of September. Nothing worth paddling out for.
Monday morning the 14th, we finally see a tiny flicker of hope. The swell drops to 2.3ft from the NNW, but the period jumps to 13 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell. The wave energy is moderate (234), and the wind is a gentle cross-shore from the ENE. It’s still only a marginal call, with questionable tide conditions, but it’s the first real chance to get wet without it being a total battle. The wind’s light, so it might offer a few clean ones.
After that, it’s back to the same old northerly onshore wind for days, running the swell down. The biggest energy we see comes Saturday the 19th of September, with 3.6ft from the north (7 seconds), but with a light cross-onshore breeze and a marginal forecast. The swell energy is strong (304), but the wind is just enough to put a ripple on it.
The one standout, if you can call it that, is Monday the 21st of September. The swell picks up to 4.3ft from the NNW, with a 10-second period and a solid wave energy of 366. The wind is a gentle cross-onshore from the NNE, which is still not ideal, but it's the best of a bad lot. This is a reef break that’s consistent and exposed to the NW, so it’ll catch that swell. There’s a chance of crowds, though. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only window in this whole 16-day run that looks like it might have a few rideable waves.
Trust me, this is a dry spell. But the forecast can change.

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.
