Table - best surf conditions forecast for Los Enanos over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this outlook for the next 16 days is a tough one to write. We're looking at the Los Enanos area, and the honest truth is, there isn't a single time in this whole period where the conditions line up for a decent paddle. It's a blank run.
We start off on Friday, July 10th, and immediately the wind is blowing straight onshore from the north at 12 mph, absolutely killing any chance of clean waves. The swell is tiny and weak – only 3 ft from the NNE with a short period of 5 seconds and barely any energy behind it. This pattern pretty much holds through the weekend. Saturday, July 11th, we get a little cross-on breeze from the NNW at 9 mph and the waves drop to 2 ft. It's just not happening.
The surf does start to build through the following week. By Sunday, July 12th, we see a bit more size, with 4 ft swell from the NNW and a better period of 8 to 10 seconds. But the wind is still onshore from the north at 9 mph, making it a choppy, blown-out mess. The "poor surf conditions" tag is on every single forecast, which is a rare thing to see.
Things actually get worse as we head into the second week. From around July 16th, the swell really starts to crank up, with the NNE swell hitting 5 ft to 7 ft, and the energy climbs. But the wind doesn't let up – we've got a moderate to fresh breeze blowing onshore or cross-onshore from the north and NNE every single day. It's the kind of setup that's better for kite surfing than paddle surfing, because the beach and reef at Los Enanos is just getting hammered.
The biggest swell of the period hits on Friday, July 24th and Saturday, July 25th, with the NNE swell pushing 8 ft to 10 ft and period at 9 seconds. The combined energy is massive. But with the wind howling onshore at 16 to 19 mph, it's a washing machine out there. That's expert-only territory, and even then, it's not going to be any fun.
So, there you have it. A solid 16-day stretch of no-go conditions. Sometimes the stars just don't align, and the forecasts can change, but right now, I'd leave the boards at home and find something else to do.
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.
