The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s look at the next couple of weeks at Playa de Xago.

We’ve got a fair bit of waiting to do. The first few days are pretty grim – Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th are a write-off with messy winds and tiny, weak swell. The energy is pathetic, barely registering. You’re better off doing something else.

Things finally get interesting on Monday the 27th. That morning, the swell jumps up to about 6ft from the NNW, with a solid 10-second period. The energy is pumping and the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the east. This is your standout session. It’s a proper groundswell, so the waves should have some punch, but the direction is good for this exposed spot. It’s going to be clean and strong. Expect a crowd though – this place gets busy when it’s good.

That afternoon and into Tuesday the 28th, the swell eases a bit but stays clean. Tuesday afternoon is particularly sweet: glassy conditions with about 4ft of NW swell. The lineup will be smooth.

From Wednesday the 29th, we drop back into small, weak, and mostly poor surf for a solid week. The energy falls off a cliff, with tiny 1ft to 2ft waves and onshore wind. There’s a long, flat gap here.

Then, right at the tail end, there’s a glimmer. On Wednesday the 5th of August, we see clean, glassy conditions again with a 4ft NNW swell. That morning is calm and glassy. It’s a distant promise, but it looks like the best of the second week.

Overall, the water temperature feels pretty average for the time of year, nothing weird there. The real call is Monday the 27th – get on it. If you miss that, hold out for that early Wednesday session on the 5th of August.

Information about the Playa de Xago Surf forecast

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