The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’m looking at a pretty grim run for Majanicho right now. For the entire 16-day window, the forecast keeps calling it “poor surf conditions.” That’s a long dry spell, and there’s no standout day where I’d get excited to paddle out. The swell is hanging around mostly 3 ft to 5 ft from the North, with short periods mostly between 6 and 9 seconds. That’s weak, short-period windswell, and the core of the problem is the wind – it’s almost always blowing onshore from the N or NNE, and often a fresh breeze at 16 to 19 mph. That’s going to chop it up something shocking. On the 15th of August you’ve got a bit more size at 5 ft and the combined energy bumps up to 333 (moderate energy), but the wind is cross-onshore and lumpy, so it’s not going to be pretty. The water temp is 74° with a positive anomaly of 2°, so it’s a touch warmer than normal for the time of year.
If you’re a beginner, most days the swell is under 5 ft, so it’s not too big for you, but the messy wind makes it ugly. When it does hit 5 ft on the 15th, 22nd, and 23rd of August, it’s still blown out, so it’s not exactly friendly either. Given the persistent onshore flow and choppy, lumpy conditions, this setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than a clean paddle session. The only sliver of hope is around the 20th and 21st of August when the period stretches to 9 seconds and the swell gets a little better shape, with combined energy climbing to 353 on the 21st morning – that’s moderate energy. But with the wind still onshore, it’s a maybe at best.
So, to put it plainly: there’s no good surf on offer here for the next 16 days. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s not totally unusual when the trades lock in. Forecasts can always shuffle, but right now, I’d save the wax for another time.
Rusty.

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.
