Quimixto Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about the waves on the horizon. We're looking at a stretch of small, clean, and fun surf, not a whole lot of size, but plenty of opportunity to get a few good ones if you're in the right place at the right time. The water's a touch warmer than normal, so you can get away with less rubber, which is always a bonus.

The first real standout is shaping up for Thursday morning, the 10th. We've got a 4.3ft SSW swell rolling in with a solid 16-second period, and the combined energy is up in the moderate range at 890. More importantly, it's glassy. Absolutely no wind. This is going to be super clean with some proper push to it. Expect very good surf conditions. There was a little bump in the swell on Wednesday afternoon, but the cross-shore wind messes with the shape a bit. For the best of that pulse, you want to be in the water early Thursday.

After that, the swell backs off a touch for Friday and the weekend, dropping to around 3ft and 3.6ft. The mornings will be your friend with light, offshore breezes, but it’s a step down in quality. Then the middle of next week goes quiet—we're looking at a real lull from Sunday the 13th through Tuesday the 15th, with the swell dropping to below 2.6ft. It's going to be flat and pretty average.

Don't worry though, a cleaner pulse arrives on Wednesday the 16th and into Thursday the 17th. We're back to that 4.3ft SSW swell with a 16-second period. The combined energy is strong again, in the 900s. The key here is that it's calm and glassy each morning. This should be another window of really clean, rippable waves. The spell continues with pushy, long-period swells right through the following week, with sizes hanging around the 3.9ft mark and more glassy mornings. It looks like the mornings are where it's at—the afternoons often get a bit of a cross-breeze or a storm risk that blows them out.

If you're a beginner, keep an eye on the size. When that swell is over 5ft, it might start to feel a little big. But for the most part, this forecast is well within the beginner-friendly range. For the experts, the long-period swells (15-17 seconds) will be fantastic, offering real energy and shape. Just be mindful they can sometimes be a bit tricky at beach breaks, but for this spot, it should be fine. Check the tide and pick your sessions. It's all about the morning glass.
