The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next two weeks are going to be a mixed bag, starting off real slow before things fire up a bit later.
Right now, the surf is tiny. From Friday, the 7th, through the weekend, there’s basically nothing worth paddling out for. We’re talking knee-high dribble at best, with almost no energy behind it. Sunday morning has a glassy surface, but the swell is only 2ft, so it’s not really a surf, more of a float. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The first half of next week isn’t much better. Still small, with a few early morning glass-offs, but the swell stays under 2ft and the period is short. There’s an odd clean window on the 11th, but it’s still just small slop. This is a proper flat spell.
Around midweek, the swell picks up a bit, with some 4ft waves showing on the 15th, but the wind goes cross and the period is short – around 6-7 seconds. That’ll make it a choppy mess. It’s more of a kiteboarding day than a surfing day at this beach break.
Then we hit a real lull from the 16th to the 20th. There’s a bigger pulse of swell on the 20th, hitting around 5ft, but it’s onshore and blown out, so it won’t be any good.
The day to circle is Friday, August 21st. That’s when things finally line up. We see a solid increase in swell, reaching 4-5ft from the north-northwest, and the morning is looking glassy. The wave energy jumps up significantly, showing it has some real power. This is the best chance for a proper, clean surf session we’ve had in the whole run. The next morning, the 22nd, still has decent 4ft waves, but the wind gets a bit cross, so the early bird gets the worm.
So, there’s a lot of waiting, but there’s a real standout morning on the 21st. It’s a week out, so don’t bank on it just yet, but it’s looking promising.

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