The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's see what's on the table for Los Enanos over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you, it's a bit of a mixed bag and you'll need some patience. The start of this run is looking pretty grim for a paddle, with a real rough stretch of onshore winds and messy conditions. We're looking at a long dry spell with nothing worth getting wet for until Monday the 14th. That's nearly a week of poor surf, so don't be in a hurry.
The first light at the end of the tunnel comes on Monday morning, September 14th. We've got a glassy session on the cards with a light NNE breeze. The swell is a clean 4ft from the NNE, but the energy is only moderate (262). This is the first proper window we get, and it’s a good one for beginners to get out, as the conditions are clean and the swell is small. The water temp is sitting at 75°, which is just about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Looking further out, and I mean a long way out, we have a potential standout on Saturday the 26th of September. The morning session is looking like the real deal. We've got glassy conditions again, and a 4ft swell from the NNW with a very long period of 14 seconds. This is proper groundswell energy, with a strong energy reading of (690) behind it. This has got the potential to really line up, especially for a spot like Los Enanos. The only thing is, wind is forecast to turn cross-onshore by the afternoon, so hit it early.
Honestly, the picking are slim until that last Saturday. There is a window on Monday the 14th that could be fun for the learners, but that Saturday the 26th is the one that has me checking my calendar. With the long period and clean morning glass, it could be the only real highlight in this entire 16-day stretch. It’s far out, so keep an eye on it, but it looks promising.
Stay patient, lads.
Rusty.

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.
