The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me be straight with you – it’s going to be a tough stretch for surf at Majanicho (reef and point) for the next 16 days. I’ve scanned the charts, and we’re looking at a real dry spell for any quality waves. The whole run starts now and goes all the way to the 20th of September with almost nothing to get excited about.
For the first week, starting with Saturday the 5th through to Friday the 11th, it’s pretty grim. We’ve got weak, northerly windswell on offer, with the combined energy sitting at weak levels. The best of that weak energy shows up on the 7th and 8th, but the wind is howling onshore at 12 to 19 mph. The water’s sitting at a nice 75°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you wouldn’t know it from the onshore chop. No standouts here. This is a blank run.
We do get a brief flicker of hope on Saturday the 12th. The swell bumps up a bit, with 5 ft coming from the north, and the combined energy climbs to a moderate level. But again, that moderate wind keeps it messy. It’s better for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
The second week doesn't offer much more. From the 13th to the 20th, the swell drops right off, mostly under 3 ft. The winds lighten at times, but the swell directions are all over the place and the periods are short to average. The combined energy drops back into the weak range. You’ll see some clean cross-offshore conditions on the morning of the 14th when a light 2 ft northwest swell sneaks in, but it’s tiny. On the 19th we get a clean, light cross-shore with 3 ft from the northeast, but it's just not enough to get the heart racing.
So, the honest truth? There's no standout. The best on offer? If I had to pick one, it's that Saturday the 12th, but that's a stretch with the 5 ft north swell onshore wind zone. Look, it’s a poor run for this spot. Because Majanicho is consistent as a rule, this blank period is an unusual one. Forecasts can change, so don’t write it off completely, but as it stands, there’s nothing worth paddling out for.
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.
