The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. For the next sixteen days, Majanicho is getting a lot of swell, but it’s getting hammered by a steady onshore wind. It’s a reef and point break, wide open to the north, and it’s strictly for experts. The water is 73°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Starting Friday the 17th of July, we’ve got a 3ft swell from the NNE, but a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore wind is making it lumpy. The combined energy is weak (122). That pattern holds through the weekend. Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th bring 4ft to 4ft swells, but it’s all onshore, messy, and the wave energy stays moderate (155). No waves worth a second look.
From Monday the 20th through Thursday the 23rd, the swell pushes to 5ft, but the wind keeps blowing onshore at 19–22 mph. The energy climbs into the moderate range (260–303), but the conditions are still poor. That’s a solid week of nothing but windblown slop.
Into the second week, the swell hits 6ft by Monday the 27th, with a 9-second period. The energy is strong (547). But the wind is still onshore, and the report stays “poor surf conditions.” The size is getting into expert territory, but the wind is ruining it. The best-looking pulse comes on Wednesday the 29th of July, with a 7ft N swell at 9 seconds and a massive 1229 combined energy. That’s a lot of power, but it’s cross-onshore, lumpy, and onshore again. It’ll be a closeout mess.
The final days, into the 1st of August, show an 8ft N swell at 10 seconds, with a very strong 1503 energy. That’s serious size, but with the wind locked onshore, this break is a washing machine. Given the reef setup and the constant wind, this looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. There are no standout windows for clean surf. The forecast could change, but right now, it’s a tough run.
Rusty.

Information about the Majanicho Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Majanicho provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Majanicho can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Majanicho 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 (Majanicho) 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 Majanicho 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.
