The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for this little stretch of coast.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. We're looking at a solid 16-day window, and honestly, from the start of the forecast right through to the 23rd of August, it's all pretty grim. The whole period is filled with "poor surf conditions" and the wave energy is weak, sitting between 123 and 336 (that's what we call "moderate" at its best, but mostly it's just weak). The wind is just hammering it from the north, blowing onshore, and the swell is all short-period windswell, around 6 to 10 seconds. That's not what you want to paddle out into.
The only break on the cards is Majanicho, a reef and point setup that's exposed to the north. But here's the rub: even though the swell is coming from the north (which is the optimum direction for this spot), it's just not enough. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild there.
The whole outlook is a washout. The swell barely cracks 5 ft at its peak, and when it does, it's accompanied by a fresh breeze right on the nose. You'll be looking at choppy, lumpy lines. The only slight change comes on the 22nd of August, when the wind backs off a little and goes cross-onshore, but it's still a gentle breeze on a 4 ft, 9-second wave. That's not a "standout" for anyone except maybe a kite surfer, because the wind and the weak, crumbly surf here at a beach-and-reef set-up would honestly be more interesting for them than for a paddle surfer.
There are no real standouts here. The best of a bad bunch is probably the 22nd of August, Saturday morning, when the wind is a bit lighter, but it's still poor. Don't get your hopes up. This is one of those stretches where you're better off cleaning the wax off your board and waiting for a better forecast.
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.
