The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's cut through the forecast noise and get real about what's on the menu for Las Piscinas. It's a stretch of waiting and watching, with a few flickers of life buried in there.

Right off the bat, we're looking at a pretty flat and messy week. The water here is running a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, about 2°F, so that's nice for the wait. But the waves? For the first four days, through Monday the 7th, it's just onshore wind and short-period, weak swell. The combined energy is pretty anemic, hovering around the low-to-mid hundreds (119-450), which just won't push any real shape into this reef. You'd be fighting a bumpy, wind-blown ocean for nothing. Not worth the paddle.

Tuesday the 8th through Thursday the 10th brings a bit more size, around the 5ft to 6ft mark, but the wind stays mostly on it, and the period is still under 8 seconds. That's just a choppy, disorganized mess. The energy builds a little (up to 402) but it's all for nothing with that wind. It's not until the 13th and 14th, the following Sunday and Monday, that the wind finally starts to ease off, turning light and cross-onshore. The swell is still small, in that 5ft to 5ft range, but that lighter wind means the surface might clean up a bit. It's a marginal call, a "maybe" at best.

Then, there's a bit of a lull again before things potentially get interesting around Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th. This is where the only real standout on the whole horizon is. The swell jumps up to 7ft and 6ft, the period stretches to 8 seconds, and the energy kicks into a whole new gear, with readings of 640 and 647. This is the strongest push of the whole period. The catch? The wind is still on it from the north. It's still not ideal, but that much extra juice in the water at Las Piscinas, a consistent reef, could be worth a look if you're an experienced surfer. Anything over 5ft is getting chunky for beginners, and this is well past that. It won't be the glassy perfection we all dream of, but it might be the only time there's real power to work with. Keep in mind, it's over a week out, so treat it as promising but not a guarantee.

After that, the energy backs right off again, fading into weak, grovelly conditions by the 19th and 20th.

So, to sum it up: there's a whole lot of nothing for the next week and a half. The highlight is that 17th and 18th window, which is your best shot at some real, powerful surf, even if the wind isn't perfect. Keep your eyes on that.

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.

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.
