The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Los Enanos for the next sixteen days.
I’m not gonna sugarcoat it: this forecast is a total dud. There are zero good surf sessions in the entire 16-day window. The break is usually very consistent, but the wind is locked in onshore from the NNE, which is the wrong direction. The water temp is 73°F, right around average for this time of year, so you can’t even blame the cold.
Starting Friday, July 24, we’ve got a 7 ft swell from the NNE at a short 7 seconds, with an onshore breeze at 15 mph. The energy is moderate. It’s messy, choppy, and poor. That carries through the weekend, with the swell staying around 7 to 8 ft, but the wind is still onshore, blowing 15 to 19 mph. It’s not surfable for a paddle.
Through the week of July 27, the swell drops. By Monday, it’s 6 ft, then 5 ft on Tuesday, with the energy fading fast. The wind is still onshore, still a moderate breeze. Thursday, July 30, the wind goes cross-onshore, making it even choppier. The waves are just lumpy.
The first week of August is flat. Swell sizes drop under 3 ft through the weekend, with a brief 10-second groundswell from the NW on August 1, but the wind is onshore. The energy is low. It’s a total glass-off.
We get a little pulse on Tuesday, August 4, with a 5 ft N swell, but the wave comment says “poor surf conditions” and the wind is still onshore. The same story repeats right through to Friday, August 8—onshore wind, weak, and messy. There’s a rain shower on Saturday, August 8, with a 5 ft N swell, but it’s still poor.
There is no standout. No best day. For a break that’s usually so consistent, this is a long, dry spell. The whole setup is so onshore and choppy that it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for the entire 16 days. Don’t get your hopes up; forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the car.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Los Enanos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
