The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next sixteen days.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a grim run. The whole sixteen-day window is a write-off for decent surf. There's just no good options on the cards at all.
We're looking at Majanicho, a reef and point setup that's an expert-only wave. It faces north, so it's looking for a north swell, but the wind is the problem. From Monday the 24th of August right through to Tuesday the 8th of September, the wind is a relentless onshore or cross-onshore breeze from the north-northeast, mostly a moderate to fresh breeze of 15 to 25 mph. That's trashing any chance of a clean wave. The swell does show some size, especially around Saturday the 29th of August when the combined energy of all swells directed here hits a strong 1415, with a 7 ft north swell, but it's totally blown out and lumpy. Later on, around Wednesday the 2nd of September, we see a 8 ft north swell with a combined energy of 866, but again, the wind is a strong onshore breeze. It's just too big and messy for anything but a kite session.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no drama there, but it's cold comfort when there's no surf to be had.
Honestly, I wouldn't bother paddling out for the next two weeks. It's a blank run. The forecast can always change, but for now, save your energy.
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.
