The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Playa de Xago.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next few days are a bit of a write-off. We’re looking at a flat spell with tiny, weak swells and poor conditions. From Tuesday the 14th right through to Sunday the 20th, the swell is barely a whisper, with heights under 1 ft, short periods, and combined energy mostly under 40 (33). You’ll be staring at a lot of small, choppy junk. There’s a brief moment on Saturday the 18th morning where it goes glassy, but there’s just no real wave to ride. If you’re a beginner, it’s not even worth dragging the board out.

Now, things start to get our attention around Monday the 21st of July. The swell picks up to 5 ft from the NE with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy jumps to moderate (303). It’s still a bit messy and the wind is a cross-off, but it’s the first real sign of life. The water temperature is sitting at 68°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t freeze waiting for a set.

The real standout, though, is shaping up for Monday the 27th of July. Mark that date. We’ve got a solid 6 ft NW groundswell, with a period of 9 seconds, and the energy is strong (549). But the best part? The wind is forecast to be glassy in the morning. That’s the magic word – glassy. This is going to be clean, and with that size, it’s a solid intermediate wave. The swell direction (NW) is right on the money for this spot. However, keep in mind that this is a long-range call, so it’s promising but not set in stone yet. It’s a bit too meaty for beginners at that size, but for the rest of us, it’s the one to pencil in.

The second week is a mixed bag. The 24th and 25th show some bigger NW swell (up to 7 ft on the 25th morning), but the wind is onshore, which is going to ruin the face. The 27th is the clear winner.

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.
