Table - best surf conditions forecast for Punta Prima over the next 16 days.
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s be honest from the start: Punta Prima is a write-off for the next 16 days. There’s not a single session in the whole run that’s worth paddling out for. The water temp is about average for the time of year, but that’s the only bit of good news.
We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch. From Friday 10 July right through to Saturday 25 July, the surf stays tiny and weak. The swell energy is almost non-existent – mostly single-digit values like 7 or 9 (weak energy), only climbing to 131 on Monday 13 July (moderate energy) but that’s paired with a cross-onshore wind that chops it up. The swell height barely reaches 4 ft that day, and it’s a short-period 5 seconds, so it’s all windswell and poor shape.
For the rest of the month, it’s a sad story. Waves are 0.7 ft to 3 ft, periods are 4 to 6 seconds – no push, no power. Winds are mostly cross-onshore or onshore, often from the east or northeast, leaving the surface choppy and messy. There are a couple of glassy moments on the morning of Friday 10 July, and Wednesday 15 July, and Friday 24 July, but with only 1 ft to 2 ft of swell and tiny energy, it’s completely flat.
This spot is inconsistent at the best of times, and right now it’s basically a swimming pool. If you’re desperate for a paddle, the cleanest windows are on the mornings of 10 July, 15 July, and 24 July, but don’t expect any wave worth riding. Honestly, this stretch is more interesting for a kite surfer if the wind picks up, but for a surfboard? Leave it at home.
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.
