The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the next 16 days for La Izquierda. I’ll be straight with you – this is a quiet stretch. The ocean is pretty much on a go-slow, and you’ll be waiting a while for anything that’s really worth paddling out for.
Right now, the water is sitting at about 76°, which is a touch warmer than you’d normally expect for this time of year – a nice little bonus. But the surf? It’s a long, flat start. We’ve got a few days of tiny, weak energy, with combined swell energy barely reaching double digits (5 or 16) and hardly any rideable height. The first sign of something that might get you out of bed is on Saturday morning, the 29th of August. That morning we’ll see a 4 ft NE swell with a short 7-second period, and the combined energy bumps up to 176 – still very weak. Winds are offshore from the east at 6 mph, so it’ll be clean, but it’s just not got any punch. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.
After that, it drops back into the doldrums for a solid week. Days of tiny waves, periods under 10 seconds, and a lot of cross-off or glassy conditions that will keep the water looking clean but sadly flat. We’re talking about swell heights of 1 ft or 2 ft, and combined energy often under 60. This is not a time to get excited.
The real standout, if you can call it that, looks like it might be Thursday, the 10th of September. Even then, it’s not a classic. We’re looking at a 2 ft NW swell on Thursday morning, with a period of 8 seconds, and combined energy of 44. The wind will be light cross-off from the southeast at 3 mph, keeping it clean. The afternoon improves a little – a 1.0 ft WNW swell, but with a longer period of 11 seconds, and combined energy of 66. Winds stay light cross-off. It’s still “surfable but very ordinary,” so don’t plan a trip around it. The whole forecast is a lean run, and for a spot like La Izquierda that’s exposed and consistent, it’s a bit of a bummer.
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.
