Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next 16 days at La Preciosa.

To be honest, mate, it’s a pretty lean run. The first patch of surf we can start talking about is Friday morning, July 10th. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the ENE, but it’s only got a short 8-second period, so the energy is weak (196). The wind is offshore from the ESE, which is a good sign for clean waves, but the conditions are just ordinary. The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about normal for this time of year.

After that, it’s a grim stretch. From Friday afternoon all the way through to Thursday, July 16th, it’s nothing but poor surf conditions. The wind stays cross-off, the swell is small—between 3ft and 5ft—and the period is a weak 7 to 8 seconds. The energy is low, hanging around the 120 to 254 range. Honestly, it’s not worth paddling out for.

We get a little glimmer on Friday morning, July 17th, with another 4ft swell from the E and offshore wind from the ESE. It’s surfable, but again, it’s just ordinary. The period is still short at 7 seconds, and the energy is weak (169). Not a standout.

The rest of the window is more of the same. We see a brief moment on Monday morning, July 20th, with a 4ft swell and offshore wind, but it’s tiny and weak. After that, it's a flat, poor run right through to the end of the forecast on July 25th. The swell never gets above 5ft, the period never gets above 8 seconds, and the wind is mostly cross-off. There’s nothing here that gets the heart racing.

Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the best bet would be the Friday mornings—July 10th or July 17th—when the wind is offshore, but don’t expect much. The waves will be weak and short-period, so it’s more of a grovel than a ride. For most of this period, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing, with the steady cross-off winds and small, weak swell.

Rusty.

Information about the La Preciosa Surf forecast

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