The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what’s on the menu.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a bit of a struggle. We've got a long stretch of small, short-period swell and onshore or cross-shore winds making a mess of things. From now through August 14th, you’re looking at knee-to-waist high waves at best, with a lot of chop and cross-chop. The water is a warm 81°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so that’s one thing going for us.
The first real sign of life shows up on the morning of Saturday, August 15th. That's when a pulse of swell kicks in. We’re talking 6ft from the NE with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is strong at (793). The wind swings offshore from the ESE, so the lineup at Playa Corrales should be clean. This is the standout of the whole run. It’s not massive, but it’s the best combination of size and glassy conditions we’ve seen. This is an intermediate-friendly wave at that size. After that, the afternoon gets a bit more dicey with a cross-chop.
Following that, August 18th and 20th have some decent mornings too. On Tuesday the 18th, you’ve got 5ft from the NE, and the same ESE offshore wind giving clean conditions. The energy is moderate at (329). Then on Thursday the 20th, another clean morning with 5ft from the ENE and light offshore breeze (218). Both are good, but not quite as punchy as that 15th.
If you’re a beginner, stick to the 3ft to 4ft days, but be aware the winds are mostly onshore or cross. The 15th and 18th might be a bit much if you’re just starting out.
So, mark your calendar for the morning of the 15th. That’s the one. Everything else before that is a waiting game, and after the 20th it fades back to small, ordinary conditions.
Rusty.

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