Table - best surf conditions forecast for Las Piscinas over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s break it down. Las Piscinas is looking pretty flat to start. This north-facing reef is getting a tiny dribble of swell, but it’s not enough to get excited about. Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th bring 3ft to 4ft of weak, short-period slop (5 seconds), with combined energy in the 70s and 80s – that’s weak. Onshore wind, moderate breeze. Saturday the 11th is even smaller, dropping to 2ft to 2ft and energy in the 20s. Don’t bother.
The first pulse that means anything comes Sunday the 12th. Swell pops to 4ft to 4ft with a 10-second period, and energy hits 385. That’s moderate energy and a bit of shape. Wind is onshore but gentle, so it’ll be okay, not great.
Then we hit a dead zone. Monday the 13th through Wednesday the 15th, the swell drops and the wind turns cross-onshore, making it choppy. Energy is low, between 80 and 165. Nothing doing.
The real action starts Thursday the 16th. Swell jumps to 7ft to 7ft with a 7-8 second period from the north-northeast, and energy climbs to 504-585. That’s strong wave energy. The wind is onshore but moderate, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but the size is there. This is intermediate territory, not for beginners.
Friday the 17th through Sunday the 19th, the swell holds at 7ft to 8ft, with energy in the 600s and 700s. The period stays around 8 seconds, so it’s a consistent, powerful push. The wind is mostly onshore from the north, gentle to moderate, so the surface won’t be perfect, but the reef will be pumping. Peak size is Saturday the 18th afternoon with 8ft swell and 757 energy – that’s expert-only stuff.
After that, the swell slowly backs off. Monday the 20th to Wednesday the 23rd sees heights from 6ft down to 4ft, with energy falling to the 100-400 range. The wind is lighter, sometimes cross-onshore, so quality drops. By Thursday the 24th, a new pulse of 6ft with 304 energy rolls in, but the wind is moderate onshore again.
Best call: If you want the biggest, rawest power, hit Saturday the 18th. The 8ft NNE swell with 8-second period is a full-on charge for experts. For a slightly less intense but still solid session, Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th are your next best bets. Water temp is about normal for this time of year.

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.
