Conchalio Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got one spot in the frame, and it’s looking like a solid run of small but clean conditions, especially through the mornings. The water is sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home.

Right off the bat, Sunday the 13th is a slow starter. The morning is glassy with 2ft of SW swell, but the energy is weak (178) and the waves are very ordinary. Not worth paddling out for. Skip that one.

Monday the 14th morning is where we see a real improvement. The swell drops a touch to 2ft, but it swings more SSW and the period jumps to a very long 19 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy (291), and with the glassy conditions, this will be clean and lined up. It’s small, but the quality will be there for a log or a fish.

Tuesday the 15th morning keeps the trend going. Same 2ft of SSW swell, 18-second period, and now a light NNE cross-off breeze. The energy is ramping up (493), so there’s a bit more push. This is a good, clean option.

Wednesday the 16th morning is the first real standout of the forecast. The swell pushes to 4ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, and it’s glassy. The combined energy is nearly 1000 (998), which is strong. This is the pick of the first week – clean, punchy, and with enough size to get a few decent turns in. Keep it in your sights.

Thursday the 17th morning is another glassy winner, with 4ft of SW swell and 14-second period. Energy is solid (612). This is a great follow-up session.

Friday the 18th morning is all about quality over size. Only 2ft, but the period stretches to a very long 20 seconds from the SSW. Glassy again. For a point break or reef setup, that long period will create some beautiful, peeling lines. The energy is moderate (576).

After that, the pattern holds through the second week. Mornings consistently offer glassy or clean conditions with swell in the 2ft to 3ft range, mostly from the SSW or SW with decent periods. The standout in the second week is Sunday the 20th morning – 3ft of SSW swell, 19-second period, glassy, and energy at 790. That’s a very solid session for a smaller day.

Monday the 21st morning is also a cracker – 3ft, 18-second period, glassy (662 energy). Then Wednesday the 23rd afternoon offers a rare glassy afternoon window with 3ft SW swell.

The absolute best on offer, though, is Wednesday the 16th morning. That 4ft, glassy, strong energy session is your best chance for a proper wave. Sunday the 20th morning is a close second for those who love long-period, clean lines. Don’t forget, Conchalio can get busy, so get out early if you want a peak to yourself. Small but very clean conditions dominate, so keep the board light.

Rusty.
