The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s break it down.
Things start dead quiet. The 17th and 18th are flat with zero energy. Sunday afternoon the 19th shows 4 ft of NE swell with a short period and cross-off wind – not worth getting wet for.
Monday the 20th is the first proper chance. Water temp’s 74°, pretty average for the season. We’ve got 5 ft of NE swell, glassy conditions, and combined energy around 235 to 269. Clean and inviting. That’s your top session in the early part of the outlook.
Wednesday the 22nd pushes up to 6 ft of NE swell, combined energy 312, but the wind is cross-off from the SSE. A good option for experienced surfers, but a little raw for beginners.
Monday the 20th remains the cleanest, most user-friendly window.
By Tuesday the 26th afternoon we hit 8 ft of NE swell, combined energy 489, with offshore wind. That’s pushing into expert territory for sure.
Then the highlight of the whole run: Monday afternoon the 27th. 6 ft of NE swell, 10-second period, offshore breeze, combined energy at 612. That’s not just good – that’s excellent. Clean, powerful, and well-shaped.
After that, from the 28th right through to the start of August, it’s all small dribble – 1 to 2 ft, weak and flat. Over a week of very little to chase.
La Izquierda is a reef break that does get crowded often. When the quality hits, expect company.
Best sessions: Monday the 20th morning, and Monday the 27th afternoon.
Keep it dialed.
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.
