La Cicer Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get real about this stretch. It’s a long, ugly run for La Cicer. The whole 16-day window is full of poor surf. The wind is stuck in the north, mostly cross-onshore, and that chop is just brutal. You’ll see some size, but it’s all blown out.

Starting Sunday morning, 9 August, we have a north wind at 12 mph and onshore, with a short-period 5ft swell from the NNE at 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (224), and the water is 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal. It’s a zero day. That’s the pattern. Every day through mid-week is the same: north wind, cross-onshore, short-period swell, all poor.

Friday, 14 August, brings a bit more size – 6ft from the NNE, but still cross-onshore. The energy is moderate (407 to 458), but poor. The weekend of 15-16 August has 7-7ft NNE swell, moderate energy (566), but cross-onshore and choppy. At that size with that wind, it’s a total mess.

There’s one tiny chance on 18 August, Tuesday morning. The wind swings to the NNW at 9 mph and goes onshore, so it could get glassy. The swell drops to a small 4ft from the north, period of 8 seconds, and weak energy (198). But it’s still poor. The next day, 19 August, is even smaller – 3ft – with light wind but tiny energy (83). Not worth it.

The final week, starting 20 August, the swell builds. Thursday morning shows a 5ft north swell with a longer period of 9 seconds and strong energy at 335. Wind is onshore from the NNW at 12 mph, but conditions are still poor. Friday, 21 August, has 5ft north swell, 9-second period, energy 444 – still poor. The weekend of 22-23 August and into Monday, 24 August, is more of the same: cross-onshore NNE wind, waist-to-head-high swell, all poor.

No standouts. No clean days. It’s a blank run. For a spot that’s very consistent, this is unusual, but for now, there’s nothing to chase. That brief glassy window on 18 August is your only shot, but the swell is tiny.
