Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for La Salina over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, right outta the gate, it's a tough watch. We're looking at a long, flat spell. For the first week and a half, from now through to about the 16th of July, the surf is pretty much a write-off. We're talking poor conditions and just nothing doing. That's a solid 9-day gap with nothing worth paddling for. It'll test your patience, for sure.
Things start to flicker to life around the 17th of July. That Friday afternoon, we finally see a bit of hope. Swell is only 2 ft from the SW with a period of 14 seconds, but the wind goes light and cross-offshore. That's the "clean" word we've been waiting for. The combined energy is still weak (341), so don't expect bombs, but it'll be rideable and clean for a few.
The standout, the one that gets my heart beating a little faster, is that Sunday the 19th of July. Both the morning and afternoon sessions are looking like the best of the whole run. Swell bumps up to 3 ft from the SW, and the period stretches to a solid 17 seconds – that's quality groundswell with some proper push. Wind is light and cross-onshore, so the surface should be clean with just small ripples. The wave energy reads moderate to strong (1000 and 1108). For a spot that's been asleep, this is a proper wake-up call. The swell direction from the SSW/SW is what La Salina wants, so it should wrap in nicely. Keep in mind, crowd-wise it can be a bit of a zoo sometimes, so get out there early if you can.
After that burst of life, the following Monday the 20th throws up a bit more size, with 4 ft from the S, but the wind is more onshore and messy, so it won't be as clean as that Sunday. Things then drop back off into poor and choppy conditions after that, so that Sunday is definitely the one to circle on the calendar.
So, to sum it up: a long, dry spell to start, but hold tight. The light at the end of the tunnel is the weekend of the 19th and 20th of July, with Sunday the 19th being the absolute pick for clean, fun waves.
Rusty.

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