The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. I’ve been looking at the charts for our region, and I gotta be honest with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a reef set-up that normally loves a good NW swell, but the next 16 days are pretty much a flat spell. The only real chance to get wet is a tiny window with a bit of pulse, but it’s not going to be anything to write home about.
Right now, and for the bulk of this forecast, there’s just nothing doing. From the start of the period through to the 19th, we’ve got days and days of zero surf. The only faint glimmer comes right at the very end. The water is sitting at a very warm 83°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, over 5°F above average. That’s unusual.
The one spot on the menu is La Laguna (reef). It’s a consistent spot that’s exposed to the NW, which is the optimum direction. The only real hope we see is on Thursday morning, August 20th. We’ve got a tiny 1 ft swell from the NNW, but it’s a super short period of just 3 seconds, so it’s not going to have any punch. The combined energy is a very weak 3. The real positive here is the wind: it’s due to be glassy from the NNE at 3 mph. That means the surface will be clean, even if the waves are barely there. It’s a dawn patrol for the hardcore, not for anyone looking for a proper wave.
After that, the 21st offers a similar 1 ft from the NW with a light ESE cross-offshore breeze, but it’s the same story – tiny, weak, and short period. Then we’re back into a flat spell for the rest of the window. The 23rd and 24th show a bit of 0.7 ft from the WSW with offshore or cross-off winds, but with combined energy of just 4 and 3, it’s barely a ripple.
Honestly, if you’ve got a kite, the constant onshore and cross-onshore winds on the afternoons through the period might be more interesting than trying to paddle out on this. For the rest of us, it’s a waiting game. The lack of any real swell for this long is a bummer, but it doesn’t stay poor forever. Keep an eye on the charts.

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.
