Table - best surf conditions forecast for Jaguay over the next 16 days.
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down Jaguay in feet and miles.
The first week is flat-ish and frustrating. Swell hangs around 2 to 3 feet out of the SW, but the wind keeps switching onshore or cross-onshore, messing up the surface. It ain’t pretty.
The real gem comes on Sunday, July 19th. Morning glass-off, SW swell pushing 4 to 5 feet, period 12 seconds – enough to wrap in with some shape. The combined energy sits at 463 (moderate), and with that glassy water, it’ll be the cleanest we’ve seen all stretch. For the beginner-plus surfer, that’s a green light.
After that, Monday the 20th holds some size around 4 to 4 feet but the wind swings onshore, so it gets lumpy. By midweek, it drops back under 3 feet – not worth getting wet for.
Water temp is 67°, running about 5° warmer than average for this time of year – comfortable without a thick wetsuit.
So, if you’ve got one session to chase in this 16-day run, make it Sunday morning, July 19th at Jaguay. Clean, glassy, waist-to-chest high, and the best conditions we’re gonna see.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaguay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaguay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaguay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaguay 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 (Jaguay) 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 Jaguay 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.
Jaguay is 18 km (11 miles) from Chincha Alta. If you plan a holiday in Lima, look for hotels and other accommodation in Chincha Alta. Chincha Alta has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
