Tetitlan Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

We’ve got a single spot on the table for the next couple of weeks: Tetitlan. It’s an advanced, exposed break that’s inconsistent, so when it lights up, you’ve got to be on it. The standouts are going to be the mornings, especially from late July through early August, with some seriously clean conditions and building swell.

The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.

The first real call is Thursday morning, July 23rd. It’s small, 2ft, but glassy as glass with a long 13-second period. The energy is moderate (331). It’s a gentle start, but clean.

Friday morning, July 24th, is a step up: 3ft, glassy, and much better energy (885). Still small, but the conditions are pristine.

Now, the first true standout hits Saturday morning, July 25th. Swell is up to 4ft from the SW, with a 21-second period – that’s a very long groundswell. The energy is strong (1228). The wind is a slight cross-offshore, keeping it clean. This is excellent for experienced surfers, but remember, a long period like that on a beach break can make it a bit straight. Still, for the crew that knows Tetitlan, this is a morning to circle.

Sunday morning, July 26th, is another gem: 5ft, offshore wind from the NNE, and strong energy (1819). Clean as a whistle.

The peak of the run looks to be Monday, July 27th, through Tuesday, July 28th. Monday morning has 6ft, offshore wind, and very strong energy (2295). Monday afternoon is glassy with the same size. Tuesday morning pushes to 7ft with strong energy (2800) and clean conditions. This is big, expert-level surf. The swell direction is SSW, which is the optimum for Tetitlan.

After that, the swell slowly drops but stays fun. Wednesday morning, July 29th, is 6ft with offshore wind and clean. Thursday morning, July 30th, is 5ft and glassy with zero wind. The energy is still moderate (1109).

The second week (from July 31st onward) eases off. Friday morning, July 31st, is 4ft but a bit cross. Saturday morning, August 1st, is 3ft and clean. Sunday morning, August 2nd, is 3ft and glassy. There’s a gap of weaker afternoons, but the mornings are consistently clean. The last real highlight in the second week is Wednesday morning, August 5th, with 5ft, cross-offshore wind, and a clean look, though the period is short at 8 seconds.

The best on offer is Monday July 27th and Tuesday July 28th. Big, clean, and powerful. For the more consistent, slightly smaller waves, the whole stretch from July 25th to July 30th mornings is a solid run.
