The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Majanicho.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is plagued by onshore winds, mostly from the N and NNE, just hammering the place. The water’s a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, sitting at 73.6°F.
We kick off on Thursday the 16th with tiny, weak swell at 1.3ft from the WNW, but the wind is cross-on and choppy, so it’s a total write-off. That sets the tone. The next few days through the weekend and into the early part of the following week show the swell slowly building, but the wind stays stubbornly onshore or cross-on, gusting up to 22 mph. The wave energy stays in the moderate range, but it’s always accompanied by “poor surf conditions.” By Monday the 20th, the swell pushes over 5.2ft, but with that onshore wind, it’s just a messy, blown-out wall for experts only. There’s no let-up.
The second week continues the same story. The swell gets bigger, hitting 6.2ft to 6.6ft from the north by the 24th and 25th, and the combined energy gets strong – hitting over 400 and even 597 on the 26th. That’s a lot of power. But the wind is relentless, still onshore, and the reports all say “poor surf conditions.” For a reef and point break like Majanicho, a solid north swell with that much energy *could* be fun, but not with a steady 19 mph onshore wind ruining the face. It’s a shame.
The last few days, from the 28th to the 31st, the swell backs off a little but stays in the 4.6ft to 5.9ft range, and the wind stays on or cross-on. The energy is still strong, especially on the 31st with 642, but the conditions never come together.
Honestly, there’s no standout here. Not a single day where the wind and swell align. For a spot that’s normally consistent, this is a long, frustrating run of poor surf. If you’re a local, you know it doesn’t stay this bad forever, but right now, the forecast is a blank. You’d be better off finding a different hobby for the next two weeks, or maybe just go for a swim.

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.

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.
