Alright, Rusty here, let's break down what we’ve got coming up at Los Naranjos.
For the first few days, starting Monday the 6th through the 9th, the waves are running 6ft to 8ft, but the wind is coming right across the face, and the period is only 8 seconds. The water is kicking up a bit, but it’s choppy. Not the best, but someone will be out there.
The real moment to mark is Friday the 10th, in the morning. Glassy conditions with a light 5 km/h breeze from the ENE. The swell is a solid 8ft from the NE, period up to 10 seconds, and the energy is in the strong range (1245). That is the cleanest, most powerful looking window. The water temp is about standard for this time of year, nothing wild. Get out there early.
From Saturday the 11th through Sunday the 12th, it gets too big for this break. Swell hits 10ft to 12ft, and with a moderate breeze, it’s just too much. The energy is high, but it's pushing past the break's limits. It’s expert territory, or maybe time to rig the kite.
Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th mornings both look good again. Monday has flat calm wind and a 8ft swell; Tuesday is dead calm with a 7ft swell. Both are clean and glassy, but the period is only 8 seconds, so they won’t hold the same power as the 10th.
From the 15th on through the 21st, the swell stays consistent in the 6ft to 8ft range from the NE, but that cross-onshore wind hangs around. It’s consistent surf, but never really clean again. Good for a paddle, but the standout day is still Friday the 10th morning. That’s the one.
Rusty.

Information about the Los Naranjos Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Los Naranjos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Los Naranjos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Los Naranjos 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 Naranjos) 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 Naranjos 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.
Los Naranjos is 29 km (18 miles) from the city of Santa Marta. If you plan a holiday in Caribbean Coast, look for hotels and other accommodation in Santa Marta. Santa Marta has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
