Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the outlook for our little slice of paradise here.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a solid run of surf lined up starting Thursday, July 2nd, and it looks like it’s going to be a great stretch for a while. The water temperature is sitting at 88°F and that’s 5°F warmer than what’s normal for this time of year. That’s a pretty big deal – it’s much warmer than usual, so you’ll be surfing in bathwater.

Thursday morning, July 2nd, is where you want to be. Quimixto is showing clean, 4ft swell coming from the SSW with a long 16-second period. That’s a nice, powerful groundswell. The wind is glassy, dead calm from the northeast, and the combined energy is a solid 766 (moderate energy). This is going to be super clean and fun for a beginner-friendly reef break. The morning is the standout for the first few days.

Friday morning, July 3rd, and Saturday morning, July 4th, look very similar – glassy conditions again, with a 4ft SSW swell. The period drops slightly to 14 seconds, but it’s still good, clean energy. The combined energy is a bit lower (629 and 649), but still moderate and very surfable. The afternoons will see a light cross or cross-onshore breeze kick up, so stick to the dawn patrol.

Now, Sunday morning, July 5th, is a real highlight. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and the swell is 4ft from the SSW with a 17-second period. The combined energy jumps up to 1071 (strong). That is some serious, long-period groundswell rolling in. This will be clean, powerful, and the best-shaped waves of this first week. The long period might make it a bit straight at beach breaks, but for a reef like Quimixto, it’s going to be absolutely prime.

Monday morning, July 6th, keeps it rolling with another glassy morning, 4ft of SSW swell at 16 seconds, and the energy is really building – up to 1328 (strong). The mellow conditions continue.

Then, Tuesday morning, July 7th, things get a little bigger and a lot more serious. We’ve got 4ft of 18-second SSW groundswell, glassy conditions, and the combined energy is 1483 (strong). This is excellent for experienced surfers. The swell is getting up there, and with that period, it’s going to have some serious push. A great window for the crew who know what they’re doing.

Wednesday morning, July 8th, the swell bumps up to 6ft from the SSW. That’s getting into expert-only territory. The period is 16 seconds, the wind is glassy, and the combined energy is 1469 (strong). For a confident surfer, this is another excellent session, but beginners should sit this one out – it’s too big and powerful.

Thursday morning, July 9th, the swell settles back to a very manageable 5ft with a 16-second period. The wind is dead calm again, totally glassy. Combined energy is 1013 (strong). This is a fantastic, clean morning for most surfers.

After that, from Friday, July 10th, through to the end of the forecast, the quality drops off. You’ll start seeing light cross-onshore winds most mornings, and the afternoons get a bit choppier with risk of thunderstorms. The swell sticks around, mostly 3ft to 4ft, but the windows of perfect glass are gone. There’s still surf to be had, especially on the mornings of Sunday, July 12th (glassy, 4ft) and Tuesday, July 14th (glassy, 3ft), but it’s not the same caliber as that first week.

The real standouts here are the mornings of July 5th and July 7th for the combination of strong, long-period swell and perfect glass. If you can only paddle out once, make it one of those.

Stay stoked.

Information about the Quimixto Surf forecast

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

Quimixto is 21 km (13 miles) from Puerto Vallarta. If you plan a holiday in Jalisco, look for hotels and other accommodation in Puerto Vallarta. Puerto Vallarta has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
