The Lowdown

Alright, mate, Rusty here, checkin' in with the long-term look for this region. We’ve got a bit of a flat start, but let's get into it.

The first real chance to get wet, lookin' at the charts, is on Tuesday, the 28th of July. The swell's around 4 ft from the NNE, comin' in with an 8-second period. The energy's moderate at 195, but the wind is howlin' onshore from the NNE at 12 mph, so the surf's gonna be a jumbled mess. Poor conditions is what it is. Wednesday and Thursday don't look much better – same onshore flow, bumpy lines. Water temp is sittin' at a touch warmer than normal, around 74°, so you won't be shiverin', but you'll be frustrated.

We get a slight glimmer on Saturday, the 1st of August. The swell drops to 5 ft from the NNE, and the wind swings to a light cross-shore from the NW at 9 mph. It's still not perfect, called a "marginal" call, so tide will be key. After that, it's back to poor surf, with the wind comin' onshore or cross-onshore right through until Tuesday, the 4th of August.

Now, here's where it gets interesting. Wednesday mornin', the 5th of August, the swell pushes up to 7 ft from the NNE (8 second period) and the energy gets serious, crackin' 531. Winds are light onshore from the N at 6 mph. The forecast reckons the wind and tide line up, but here's the kicker – the swell's predicted to be too big for Los Enanos. At over 7 ft and with its beach and reef setup, this is gettin' into expert territory. Not for the beginners, that's for sure. The same call is made for Thursday mornin', the 6th, with another 7 ft swell.

The standout window is those Wednesday and Thursday mornin's. If you're an experienced surfer and you can handle a powerful, dumpy shorebreak, that's your window. The light onshore wind will keep it clean enough, but the size and the short, 8-second period means it'll be walled up and critical. The rest of the week and into the second week is just a run of onshore wind and buildin' swell, with energy numbers climbin' past 800 by the 10th, but it's all blown out. It ain't lookin' good for a clean ride for the next 16 days, with a big gap of poor conditions bookendin' that brief, heavy window for experts only.

Rusty out.

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.
