Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down this 16-day stretch for the area. Truth is, we’re looking at a pretty grim run for most of it. The wind is a constant problem from the north, and the swell just doesn’t line up for clean, rideable waves at our only spot, Los Enanos. There’s a big gap of nothing surfable right through the first 11 days, from Wednesday July 8th right up until the morning of Saturday July 19th. That’s a long, flat, blown-out stretch.
The only real glimmer of hope comes right at the tail end of the window. For the morning of Saturday, July 19th, Los Enanos (beach and reef) might actually offer something special. The swell is gonna be a solid 7 ft out of the NNE, with the combined wave energy hitting a strong 578 (moderate energy). The wind is set to be light and variable, swinging from the NNE at only 6 mph – that’s basically light and variable, so we could get some glassy, clean conditions. The guide says the swell might be too big for this break, but for a experienced surfer, that’s a big, powerful groundswell (8-second period) that could barrel. The key is the wind; if it stays light, it’s the only day that’s really worth a paddle. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild.
Don’t get too excited about the next morning, Sunday, July 20th. The swell drops to 5 ft and the wind swings back onshore from the NNE, ruining the quality. After that, it’s back to average, onshore junk for the rest of the forecast. Look, it’s a bleak run, but that one Saturday morning has potential. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it.
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.
