Table - best surf conditions forecast for Playa de Xago over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming our way for Playa de Xago.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—the next week and a half is pretty grim. We’re looking at a long, frustrating stretch of tiny, weak waves from Friday the 10th right through to Thursday the 23rd of July. The swell energy is hardly there, often in the double digits, and the conditions are just ordinary at best. If you’re desperate for a paddle, there are a few moments, like Saturday morning the 11th with a clean, cross-off breeze on a 2ft NW swell, or Tuesday morning the 14th with glassy conditions on a 2ft N swell, but honestly, it’s nothing to get excited about. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 67°, but that’s about the only highlight for a while.
Then, things change. After a long wait, we finally get a proper window. The standout of the whole outlook is Friday morning, the 24th of July. The conditions are forecast to be absolutely perfect. The wind will be dead calm, glassy as a lake, and we’ll see a solid 5ft swell from the NNW, with a long period of 11 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy reading is a whopping 658 (moderate-strong). This is a clean, powerful wave that will be a dream for intermediate surfers. It might be a touch big for beginners, but for anyone with a bit of experience, this is the session to aim for. The wind is forecast to swing onshore that afternoon, so get on it early.
The morning after, Saturday the 25th, still has some decent leftover energy (3ft, NNW, 9 seconds) but the wind turns cross-onshore, so it won't be as clean.
So, to sum it up: a whole lot of flat with a single, promising morning to look forward to. Keep your eye on that Friday the 24th.

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.
