Table - best surf conditions forecast for Punta Sayulita over the next 16 days.


Alright, let’s get into it. The next 16 days are a mix of small but clean windows. The standout is Tuesday, July 7th, with another decent morning on Saturday, July 18th. Don’t expect anything over waist-high, but the water is stupid warm – 89°F, which is way warmer than usual for July.

Tuesday, July 7th – Best day of the stretch. Punta Sayulita sees a 2ft SSW groundswell with a very long 18 second period, giving moderate energy (353). Morning has a risk tstorm but the wind is light offshore from the ENE at 3 mph, so it’s glassy. That long period will wrap around the point real nice. Perfect for a longboard or mid-length. Water is 89°F, much warmer than normal, so you’ll be in boardshorts all day.

Wednesday, July 8th – Another clean morning. Swell holds at 3ft from the SSW, period drops to 16 seconds. Offshore ENE wind at 6 mph keeps it clean. Afternoon stays clean with a light cross-off SE breeze. Moderate energy (345).

Thursday, July 9th – Morning glassy with a light SW breeze at 3 mph. Swell at 2ft from the SW, period 16 seconds. Moderate energy (263). Get out early before the afternoon cross-on.

Friday, July 10th – Clean morning again. Offshore ENE wind at 3 mph, swell 2ft from the SSW, period 15 seconds. Moderate energy (201).

Saturday, July 11th – Morning clean with a cross-off NNE breeze at 6 mph. Swell 2ft at 14 seconds from the SSW, moderate energy (203). Afternoon gets a 12 mph cross-on.

Sunday, July 12th – Morning clean with cross-off NNE at 6 mph. Swell down to 2ft at 14 seconds, energy lower (140). Surfable but ordinary.

Monday, July 13th – Glassy morning with a light ESE breeze at 3 mph. Swell 2ft at 14 seconds from the SW, low energy (150). Ordinary.

Tuesday, July 14th – Glassy morning with a SE breeze at 3 mph. Swell 1ft at 13 seconds, low energy (124).

Wednesday, July 15th – Glassy south wind at 3 mph, 1ft SW swell at 18 seconds, very long period but tiny. Low energy (142).

Thursday, July 16th – Clean morning with cross-off NNE at 6 mph. Swell 1ft at 16 seconds, low energy (137).

Friday, July 17th – Glassy WSW breeze at 3 mph in the morning. Swell 2ft at 11 seconds, moderate energy (181). Small and crumbly.

Saturday, July 18th – Glassy morning with an E breeze at 3 mph. Swell 2ft at 17 seconds from the SW, moderate energy (240). This is the best of the second week – clean, long period, nice lines on the point.

Sunday, July 19th – Morning risk tstorm but offshore ENE wind at 6 mph. Swell 2ft at 17 seconds from the SW, moderate energy (329). Clean.

Monday, July 20th – Morning risk tstorm with offshore E wind at 6 mph. Swell 2ft at 16 seconds from the SW, moderate energy (271).

Tuesday, July 21st – Morning cross-off ENE wind at 9 mph, 2ft SW swell at 15 seconds, moderate energy (252). Clean.

Wednesday, July 22nd – Morning with light offshore ESE breeze at 3 mph, 2ft SW swell at 14 seconds, low energy (180). Surfable but nothing special.

So the call is Tuesday July 7th morning – that 2ft, 18-second groundswell with offshore wind at Punta Sayulita is your best shot. Then Saturday July 18th morning is a solid second option. Everything else is knee to waist-high, but clean if you pick your morning window.

Information about the Punta Sayulita Surf forecast

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