The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you—this 16-day run is a tough one. We’re staring down the barrel of a long, quiet stretch.
For Las Piscinas, the pattern is pretty grim right from the get-go. We start off on Sunday the 26th of July with a messy 8ft swell from the NNE, but it’s got no soul—only 8 seconds between waves. The wind is howling onshore at 15 mph, so it’s just blown-out chop. Wave energy is nothing special (700). Honestly, this setup is looking more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
That poor quality lingers right through the first week and into the start of August. Swell drops and winds stay onshore or cross-onshore, with most days scoring a zero. There’s a brief flicker of hope on the morning of Saturday the 1st of August where the wind drops to a light breeze and the combined energy ticks up a bit (237), but the swell is still just 5ft with a short 7-second period, and it’s described as marginal. Don’t get excited.
We then hit a real dead zone from Sunday the 2nd through Tuesday the 4th of August, with weak knee-high dribble and persistent onshore wind. There is a slight pickup on the 5th of August, with 6ft swell and a bit more energy (366), but it’s still poor surf conditions and a moderate breeze ruining the shape.
The only thing that stands out—and I mean barely—is the morning of Friday the 7th of August. We get light winds (6 mph) blowing offshore from the N, and the swell period stretches out to 11 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, which usually means better shape for a reef break like Las Piscinas. Swell is a clean-looking 4ft from the N and the energy is solid (450). For a reef setup, that longer period could line up some proper lines, though it will be a bit inconsistent between sets. Still, with light offshore wind, it might be the only window for a clean wave in the entire forecast.
After that, the wind picks up again for the final weekend, and we’re back to onshore slop. The water temp is pretty standard at 73°, nothing out of the ordinary.
So, if you’re desperate, pencil in the morning of Friday the 7th of August. Otherwise, it’s a long blank run of poor conditions.
Rusty.

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 Las Piscinas 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.
