The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into what's cooking at Conchalio. This spot is a beginner-friendly, west-facing break, so it's a magnet for the SW groundswell coming our way. The water is about 86°, which is dead average for this time of year, so no need to worry about a drysuit.

The first proper session to get stoked on is Tuesday morning, the 21st. We've got a small 3ft swell from the SW, but it's packing a 15-second period – that's proper groundswell. The combined energy is moderate at 476, but the real win is the glassy conditions. Zero wind. It'll be like a lake. You'll need a longboard, but it'll be a fun morning.

The next big highlight is Friday morning, the 24th of July. The swell is still around 3ft, but it's shifted to a better SSW direction, and the period is a massive 24 seconds. That's a very long-period groundswell, and the energy jumps to 1114 – strong. It's glassy again, and the call is excellent for experienced surfers. For a beginner spot, that's a bit of a twist, but the long period will make the waves hold up and reel. It'll be a bit straight for the beach break, but clean as a whistle.

Then Saturday the 25th is another killer. The swell is up to 3ft, still SSW, 21-second period, 1134 energy, and it's glassy in the morning. This is a top-tier morning session. The waves will have some real shape and punch.

Sunday the 26th keeps the streak alive. The morning is 4ft SSW, 19-second period, 1059 energy, glassy. The afternoon gets a bit messy with thunderstorms and cross-shore wind, but the morning window is prime.

Heading into the next week, Monday the 27th morning is the biggest clean swell of the window. 5ft from the SSW, 18 seconds, and a massive 1468 energy. Glassy. This is pushing into the territory where it's a bit much for beginners, but for the experienced crew, it's the best day on offer.

Wednesday the 29th morning is a beauty. 6ft, 16-second period, 1407 energy, and the wind is cross-offshore, keeping it clean. Big, powerful, and clean. This is a top pick for the intermediate and above crowd.

The last notable one is Friday the 31st morning. The swell drops to 4ft, 14-second period, 764 energy, and the wind goes offshore from the NE. That's a clean groomed wave.

After the 31st, the first week of August sees the swell fade back to 3ft and smaller, with less consistent conditions. The morning of the 4th is glassy with a 2ft W swell, but it's small.

The best window is the 24th to the 31st. The standout mornings are the 24th, 25th, 26th, 27th, and 29th of July. The 27th is the biggest and cleanest, but the 24th and 25th have the longest, most powerful waves for the size. The 29th is the biggest cleanest of the later period. Get out there.

Rusty.

Information about the Conchalio Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Conchalio provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Conchalio can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Conchalio 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 (Conchalio) 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 Conchalio 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.

Conchalio is 2 km (1 miles) from the city of La Libertad. If you plan a holiday in El-Salvador - Costa del Balsamo, look for hotels and other accommodation in La Libertad. La Libertad has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
