The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the next 16 days, but in feet and degrees for you. We’re looking at a flat patch for the most part. The water is a real standout, though – it’s sitting at 82°F (much warmer than normal for the time of year), so even if the surf is a no-go, the water feels like a warm bath.
The first chance to even think about a wave is Wednesday, the 29th of July. Punta Prima has a bit of combined energy showing (107), but it’s messy. Swell is about 4ft from the ESE with a short 7-second period. The wind is cross-on from the NE at 10 mph, which is going to put some ripples on it. It’s a poor surf call, and the break is inconsistent, so keep your expectations low. Thursday morning, the 30th, is similar – 4ft from the ESE, 111 moderate energy, but still cross-on wind. It’s clean enough for a paddle, but the waves will be weak and lack any real push.
After that, it drops off a cliff. From Friday, the 31st of July, through to the 9th of August, we’re looking at tiny swell – mostly under 3ft, with periods under 8 seconds. There are some glassy mornings on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th of August, but the swell is barely a ripple (0.7ft to 1ft). The combined energy values are all in the single digits or low tens, which is nothing. The 4th of August morning has a clean, cross-off wind from the SSW, but the swell is only 1ft and 5 seconds – you’d need a longboard or a handplane.
There’s no standout session here. The best you’ll get is a small, grovelly board session on the 29th or 30th of July, but it’s not worth the drive. For a break that’s already inconsistent, this is a proper flat spell. It’s one of those times where forecasts can shift, but right now, we’re in the doldrums.
Rusty.

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