The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. I gotta be honest – the next week and a half is a right-off at La Izquierda. From Monday the 24th of August through the end of the month, it’s barely a ripple. Swell stays between 0.7ft and 1ft, energy’s weak (109 on the high end early, then mostly single digits), and even with glassy or light winds, there’s just nothing to paddle for. That’s a long dry spell.
Then on Tuesday the 1st of September, it picks up a little. Tuesday afternoon goes glassy with a 4ft NE swell (6-second period), energy at 110 – still weak but at least you can catch something. That’s not the winner though.
The real standout is Wednesday the 2nd of September. Wednesday afternoon shapes up with a clean 6ft NE swell (8 seconds) and glassy conditions. The combined energy hits 459 – moderate, with some push behind it. Sure, NE isn’t the perfect direction for this reef (it likes NW), but the size and the glassy surface make this the best session of the whole 16 days. Crowds are often here though, so don’t expect it to yourself.
After that, it drops back to tiny until the following week. Then Monday the 7th of September morning looks real nice – glassy, with a 3ft groundswell from the WNW. That period is a very long 15 seconds, and energy is 454. That long period will peel nicely on a reef. Monday afternoon holds 3ft WNW swell (14 seconds) with clean cross-off wind, energy at 491. Tuesday the 8th morning has offshore wind and a 3ft WNW groundswell (13 seconds), energy at 233. Those two days are the second-week window, but it’s far out – promising but not a lock.
Water’s sitting around 77°, a touch warmer than normal – nice for a long session.
So, surf-wise: you’ve got a long wait, then Wednesday Sept 2nd is your best early call, and Monday-Tuesday Sept 7th-8th are the ones to watch. Stick with it.
Rusty.

Information about the La Izquierda Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Izquierda provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Izquierda can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La 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 (La 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 La 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.
La Izquierda is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Adeje. If you plan a holiday in Tenerife, look for hotels and other accommodation in Adeje. Adeje has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
