G’day, Rusty here with the imperial look. Let’s call it like it is—this run at Las Piscinas is a tough slog. From Tuesday, July 7th all the way through Monday, July 20th, it’s a long stretch of poor conditions. Waves are tiny, wind is blowing right onshore, and there’s nothing to get excited about. That’s nearly two weeks of flat, messy stuff. Not worth paddling out.
Things do start to change around Tuesday, July 21st. The swell finally shows up, running about 7ft to 8ft from the NNE, with periods around 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 588 to 717 (moderate to strong). But the wind is still cross-onshore or onshore, and the reports are calling it marginal with questionable tide conditions. On a reef break like this, that’s a dealbreaker for most. By Wednesday, July 22nd, the swell is pushing 8ft from the NNE, period still 8 seconds, and the combined energy hits 924 (strong). That’s expert-only size. The wind does turn offshore from the north in the morning with a light breeze—that’s the one bright spot. If you’re a seasoned charger who can handle rough, powerful waves, that Wednesday morning is the only window worth a look. But for the average surfer, this 16-day run is a big miss. Crowds can be an issue here, but honestly, the conditions will keep most people off the water.
Water temp is 72°F, which is pretty average for the season.
Rusty, signing off.

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