The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here with the hard truth. We’ve got a 16-day window, but the surf is a total washout. The whole period is a dud, so leave the boards in the rack.
We’re looking at Majanicho (reef and point). This is an expert wave, but the swell doesn’t show up. From Monday, August 3rd, all the way through Tuesday, August 18th, every single session is tagged “poor surf conditions.” The swell height runs from 2ft to 6ft, mostly out of the N or NNE, but the period is short—mostly 6 to 8 seconds, hitting 11 seconds just once. That’s windswell, not groundswell, so it’s weak and lacking shape.
The wind is a constant headache. It’s onshore or cross-onshore from the N or NNE at 12 to 22 mph the whole time. That’s a moderate to fresh breeze, and it’ll tear up the surface. The combined swell energy is mostly in the moderate range (100 to 300), but with that wind, it’s a choppy mess. There’s zero standout days. No glassy mornings. No clean windows. The water temp is about average for the season, so nothing weird there.
For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a grim stretch. If you’re a kiter, the wind’s there, but for paddle surfing? Not a chance. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. This is one of those stretches where things can change, but right now, save your energy. I’ll keep an eye out, but for now, it’s a hard pass.
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.
