The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. I’ve been staring at the charts for Los Enanos, and I gotta be honest with you – it’s a rough stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for anything decent, so don’t bother waxing up just yet.

We’re looking at a solid gap of poor conditions right from the start. From Friday, July 31st, all the way through to Saturday, August 15th, every single session is rated as poor surf. That’s over two weeks of nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is coming in from the NNE mostly, but the period is short – between 6 and 8 seconds – so it’s weak, bumpy, and lacks any punch. The combined swell energy starts off moderate (around 217) but builds into some seriously strong numbers later on, hitting 615 by August 14th. The problem is, the wind is never your friend here. It’s either onshore or cross-onshore, blowing from the N or NNE at 9 to 16 mph, making everything a choppy, messy battle.

For a spot that’s a beach and reef setup, this is a classic case of “leave the board at home.” The water temp is sitting at 74°F with a normal anomaly, so it’s not the cold that’s the issue – it’s the complete lack of quality. With the swell getting over 5 ft and up to 8 ft on the 14th and 15th, mixed with strong onshore winds, this is looking more like a kite-surfing session than a paddle session. Honestly, there’s no standout. Not a single day worth highlighting. If you’re desperate, wait for a change in the forecast, but for now, it’s a blank run. That’s just how it goes sometimes in this area.

Stay patient, and keep an eye on the sky.

Information about the Los Enanos Surf forecast

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