Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s coming up for Playa de Xago over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the first week and a half is a real tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of barely surfable waves, mostly under 3ft, with poor conditions and very low energy. The swell is weak and the wind is often onshore or cross-onshore, with a score of zero for most of those days. It’s a painful gap from now until around the 19th of July, with little to nothing to get excited about.
The only real standout, and it’s still a week and a half away, is the morning of Sunday, the 19th of July. The water here is sitting at a warm 68°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That morning, we’ll see a pulse of 5ft swell from the NNW, with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 263 (moderate), and crucially, we’ve got glassy, offshore wind from the WNW. That means clean, lined-up waves and a good chance of some fun rides. The swell is getting a bit solid, so it’ll be more suited to intermediate surfers than beginners. It’s a very consistent spot, but crowds are often an issue here, so get out early.
The rest of the 19th and the following days drop off again with onshore winds and smaller, less organised swell. The 21st of July has a clean, cross-offshore breeze but the swell is tiny and weak.
So, the call is clear: If you’re keen, pencil in the morning of Sunday, the 19th of July. The rest of the window is a write-off.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Playa de Xago can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 de Xago 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.
