Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this stretch coming up is a tough one for us around Punta Higuero. We're looking at a real flat spell with barely a ripple worth paddling for over the next couple of weeks.

The whole forecast window is a sea of calm. The combined energy readings are almost all in the weak zone, with values like 25, 64, even dropping down to single digits. Even the strongest pulse only hits 115 (moderate) on Friday the 10th, but the swell is tiny and the energy just isn't there to make anything happen. Wind conditions aren't helping either – we get a mix of cross-onshore breezes and some clean-offshore looks, but there's simply no swell to work with. The period is short too, mostly 6 to 7 seconds, which means no push.

A couple of afternoons, like Tuesday the 20th, show a little bump of 1.0m from the NE and a clean offshore wind, but the score is still poor. It's just not enough to get excited about. For a break that's consistent and exposed to the north, this is a rare quiet period. You'd be better off leaving the board in the car and enjoying the beach. Don't hold your breath; forecasts can change, but as it stands, there's nothing to recommend for paddle surfing here.

Information about the Punta Higuero Surf forecast

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

Punta Higuero is 15 km (9 miles) from the city of Aguadilla. If you plan a holiday in Puerto Rico, look for hotels and other accommodation in Aguadilla. Aguadilla has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
