The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the next 16 days for La Laguna.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a long quiet spell. For over a week, from Thursday the 20th of August right through to late on Thursday the 27th, it’s pretty much flat or just tiny, messy windswell. The water temp feels about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there. You’ll be cleaning the wax off your board for a while.
The real action doesn’t show up until Friday the 28th of August. That morning we finally see a pulse of NW groundswell pushing in at about 6 ft, with a period of 7 seconds and moderate energy levels (384). The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze from the ESE, and the conditions are clean. It’s surfable, but it’s a bit of a slow start after the drought.
The standout window is definitely Sunday the 30th of August. That morning delivers the best of the run. We’ve got a solid 7 ft NW swell with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy is strong (623). The wind is a gentle NNE breeze – cross-offshore – and the surf is clean. This is the one to circle on the calendar. It’s a bit juicy for beginners at that size, but for the intermediates, it’s going to be the pick of the whole period. The afternoon gets a bit lumpy with the NW cross-shore wind picking up, so get your session in early.
The following week settles back into more ordinary conditions. Monday the 31st of August and Tuesday the 1st of September have some clean mornings with waist-high NW swell around 4 ft, but it’s not the quality of that Sunday peak. There’s a glassy morning on Thursday the 3rd of September with 4 ft NW swell, but the afternoon onshores blow it out.
To sum it up: the first week is a write-off. The second week has a genuine standout on the morning of Sunday the 30th of August. After that, it’s a slow fade back to average.
Rusty.

Information about the La Laguna Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Laguna provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Laguna can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Laguna 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 Laguna) 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 Laguna 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.
