The Lowdown

Alright, let’s talk Laredo. It’s a sheltered beginner spot, and the water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year. Nothing unusual.

The first few days are a bust. Tuesday the 28th is a no-go – onshore wind, messy 1.3m swell from the NNW. Wednesday the 29th gives you a tiny window: a clean 0.9m NW swell with offshore wind, but the energy is only 120 (moderate). It’s small and ordinary.

From Thursday the 30th all the way to Wednesday the 6th of August, there’s a long, flat gap. Swell drops to 0.3m to 0.7m, energy readings in the double digits. A few glassy mornings, like the 4th of August, but with no wave to ride, it’s just a calm ocean. Not worth suiting up.

The turnaround comes on Sunday the 9th of August. That morning is glassy, with a 1.6m NW swell, period of 10 seconds, and strong energy at 530. Clean, fun-size waves for a beginner break. The afternoon stays clean with cross-off wind. That’s the pick of the whole forecast.

Monday the 10th of August is also solid: 1.5m to 1.6m NNW swell, clean cross-off wind, energy around 475 to 530. Not quite as glassy as Sunday, but still very good. After that, Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th drop back to smaller, ordinary conditions.

Crowds are often around, so expect company. The break is consistent, but this has been a quiet stretch. The second week finally delivers.

Rusty.

Information about the Laredo Surf forecast

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