The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a long, honest look at what’s coming up for Los Enanos.
To be straight with you from the start, this 16-day window is looking pretty bleak. We’ve got a long dry spell here. The first recommendation doesn’t appear until Thursday the 10th of September morning, and even then, it’s barely a whisper. Before that, from now through the 9th, it’s all poor surf conditions with onshore or cross-onshore winds and weak, short-period windswell. Friday the 4th kicks off with a tiny 3 ft swell from the NNE at a short 7 seconds – that’s barely a ripple, and the northerly breeze is making it choppy. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th see the swell build slightly, but the wind stays on it, so it’s just messy. We’re looking at a full five to six days of nothing worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer comes Thursday morning the 10th. The swell bumps up to 6 ft from the NNE with an 8-second period, and the combined energy is ramping up there at 724 – that’s a moderate surge of energy. It’s still rated as marginal surf, though, with onshore wind from the NNE at 9 mph. The wind isn’t terrible, but it’s not clean. This is a beach and reef setup, and with that wind direction, it’s going to be a bit bumpy and won’t hold its shape well. Not a standout, but it’s the best we get that week.
After that, the pattern stays poor. The swell hangs around 5 ft to 6 ft for a few days, but the northerly winds keep blowing onshore or cross-onshore, and the period stays short at 6 to 8 seconds. On Tuesday the 16th, we see another bump in swell energy, but it’s still paired with poor wind. The last few days from the 17th to the 19th fade back down under 5 ft with moderate cross-onshore breezes.
Honestly, for Los Enanos right now, there isn’t a true standout session in the whole 16 days. The northerly and north-northeasterly winds just won’t give us the clean conditions we need. If you’re desperate, the Thursday the 10th morning window is your only real shot, but don’t expect perfection. For a spot that’s very consistent, seeing this kind of blank run is a real bummer, but it happens. The forecasts can always change, so keep an eye out.
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.

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.
