Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we've got cooking for the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a mixed bag for Jaguay, with a lot of days where the ocean just feels off, but there are a couple of moments that’ll make it worth paddling out.
Right off the bat, the weekend isn't much to write home about. Saturday morning (July 4th) is tiny with a 2ft SW swell and a light onshore breeze, but the afternoon cleans right up. It goes glassy, dead calm, and that same 2ft swell with a 13-second period is showing a combined energy of (318). It’s not big, but it’ll be clean. Sunday and Monday (July 5th and 6th) are a bit boring. The swell bumps up to 2ft–3ft, period is all over the place (20 seconds Sunday morning, then dropping), but the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, so the surface is rough. Expect some light wind ripples and messy conditions.
We hit a real quiet patch from Tuesday (July 7th) through to Friday (July 17th). Most of these days are marginal at best. Swell hovers between 1ft and 3ft, and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-on from the W or WSW. It’s just not a good run, and you'll see a lot of "poor surf conditions" flags. Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th are particularly flat and weak.
Now, here’s the standout. You need to put a circle around Friday, July 17th. That morning, the wind swings around to a light N breeze, going glassy. We’re looking at a 3ft SW groundswell with a solid 17-second period—that’s long, powerful energy, the kind that wraps in with real shape. The combined energy is a strong (552). This is the best on offer. The long period means it’ll hold its lines, but at a beach break like this, those long period swells can sometimes stand up and close out a bit if the sand isn’t right. Still, with glassy conditions, it’s a proper session. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th drop back off into onshore junk with small swell, so don't get your hopes up for the second weekend.
To sum it up: the first part of the forecast is a lot of waiting around, but that Friday the 17th morning is a legitimate window. Everything else is pretty average, so choose your time wisely.
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.
