Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the coming days.
Honestly, mate, it’s a bit of a flat spell we’re walking into. We’re talking a good stretch with nothing worth getting excited about. For the first solid week, the surf is tiny and the conditions are pretty ordinary. The water temperature is sitting at 68°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least it’ll be comfortable for a paddle if you’re keen on a float.
Looking at the whole run, the only real standout whisper we get is way off in the distance. Right at the very end of the period, on Thursday, July 22nd, things might just wake up a little. It’s still not huge, but we’ll see a pulse of swell bumping up to around 4ft from the WNW. The wind is set to be light offshore from the NW, making for some potentially smooth, workable faces. It’s still a small day, but for this stretch, that’s the best we’ve got.
Unfortunately, Playa de Xago rarely sees any real power, and with the energy levels low, there’s just not enough juice to make it interesting for a paddle. Even when the wind goes glassy, the swell is too small to produce a rideable wave. Conditions are mostly poor, with onshore and cross-onshore winds ruining any chance of shape. The period is short, mostly under 8 seconds, so any waves that do pop up will be weak and crumbly.
Forget the rest of the week, mate. Nothing is firing. The best bet is to keep an eye on that Thursday, July 22nd, for a slight chance at a few cleanish, small waves. It's not a day to get your hopes up, but it's the only one that even has a pulse.

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.

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.
