The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour for the crew who think in imperial.
The start is a bust. The 9th of September gives you a measly 2ft SW swell with a fresh cross-off breeze, and the energy is weak (337). Not worth a look. The morning of the 10th gets a little better—4ft SW swell, the wind goes offshore, and the energy (701) is moderate. But it’s still just marginal.
The real action starts on the 15th of September. The morning has a 2ft SW groundswell (18-second period) with a moderate offshore wind, and the energy (402) is building. Surf is looking good. The morning of the 16th of September is the first real highlight: 3ft SW swell, 16-second period, moderate offshore wind, and the energy (529) is solid. Very good surf quality. Clean, consistent, proper groundswell.
The big one is the afternoon of the 22nd of September. The swell jumps to 6ft from the SW, but it’s a short-period windswell (8 seconds), so it’s going to be a bit lumpy. The wind goes glassy offshore—light breeze, dead offshore. The energy is intense (1106), and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. At 6ft, it’s too big for beginners. The 23rd of September keeps the size around 6ft to 6ft, but the wind is light cross-off, and the period drops to 7-8 seconds. Still very good, but the 22nd is the peak.
The 24th of September still has 6ft swell, but the wind picks up cross-off from the ESE, and the energy (554) is dropping. It’s marginal.
Crowds are possible at Playa Remonso, but not a total zoo. The water temp is about normal for this time of year. The long-period swells (16-18 seconds) at a beach break can make it a bit challenging, but with the wind, it’ll be clean.
That 16th of September morning and the 22nd of September afternoon are your standouts. The rest is a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Playa Remonso Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Playa Remonso provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Playa Remonso can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Playa Remonso 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 Remonso) 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 Remonso 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.
Playa Remonso is 5 km (3 miles) from San Juan del Sur. If you plan a holiday in Rivas Province, look for hotels and other accommodation in San Juan del Sur. San Juan del Sur has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
