The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, checking the next 16 days for Latigo Canyon. This is a point break that’s fairly consistent, and it’s all about that SW swell. The water’s at 71° right now, which is a whopping 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s really unusual, so you’re in for a treat.

The pattern starts off with a bit of a wait. The first few days are pretty marginal, but here’s the deal: the best window is going to be from Sunday the 6th into Tuesday the 8th. That’s where the energy is, with combined swell energy readings in the 800 to 900+ range (moderate wave energy). The standout is Sunday morning, the 6th. We’ve got a 5ft S swell coming in at 14 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNE. The water will be clean, the waves will have shape, and that’s the pick of the forecast. The swell is a bit long in the tooth, so it’ll be lining up nicely on the point. There might be a few heads out there as it can get crowded.

After that, the swell starts to drop. Monday the 7th still has some size at 5ft from the S, but the wind goes onshore, so it’s not as clean. By Wednesday the 9th, the size drops to 4ft, but the morning is glassy – dead calm – so if you’ve got a log, you could have some fun on the smaller sets.

From Saturday the 12th onwards, it’s a pretty grim stretch. The swell drops below 3ft, the combined energy falls into the 100-200 range (weak energy), and the conditions are poor. There’s a long gap of nothing really worth paddling out for until the morning of the 18th (Friday), when a tiny 2ft SW swell with a 19-second period appears, but it’s marginal. Honestly, that second week is a write-off for any decent waves. You’ll be waiting until the very end of the period for a little bump, but it’s not going to save the week.

The only real call to make is Sunday morning, the 6th. Get on it.

Rusty.

Information about the Latigo Canyon Surf forecast

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