The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. We’re looking at a pretty grim stretch ahead for the local zone. The pattern is locked in and it’s not a pretty picture.
Right off the bat, there’s a gap with no real surf to speak of. The first day with any waves on the cards is Saturday, the 25th of July, but it’s not one to get excited about. For the most part, the whole 16-day window is a washout for us paddle surfers.
Let’s start with Majanicho. The water temperature is sitting at 73°, which is about normal for this time of year. The swell is coming straight out of the north, right onshore, and it’s blown out by a fresh breeze of 22 mph. That north wind is hammering the break, making things messy and choppy. The combined swell energy is moderate, reading 455, but the period is a short 8 seconds, meaning weak, wind-chop. The forecast keeps repeating the same story: "poor surf conditions" day after day.
We see the swell bumping up a bit on Sunday the 25th, 6ft, and then Monday the 27th with 5ft, but the wind is still onshore from the N and NNE. Through the rest of the week into early August, the swell drops below 3ft, and the period falls into a weak 6-7 second range. The energy numbers drop right down, with values like 101 and 106. For a stretch of days, there is virtually no surfable energy.
There is a brief shift on the 2nd of August with a small cross-offshore breeze from the WSW, but the swell is only 3ft and poorly aligned. That’s a tiny one-off chance for a session, but you’d be scratching for a wave.
By the 5th of August, the wind is back up, and the swell direction wobbles towards WNW with a longer period of 10 seconds, but the onshore winds ruin it. The 6th and 7th see a bit of a spike back towards 5ft swell, but again, it’s all north wind, onshore, and with moderate wave energy (332, 396). For an exposed reef and point break like Majanicho, north wind is its worst enemy. There’s no standout session in this entire run.
Honestly, the whole 16-day window is a write-off for decent surf. The setup with consistent onshore north winds and short-period swell is more interesting for a kite surfer than anyone with a paddle board. Don’t hold your breath; things look bleak for a long while.
Rusty.

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.
