Table - best surf conditions forecast for Villa over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down Villa over the next sixteen days.
First impression: grim for a while. The wind’s coming from the south and southwest, blowing cross-on or on at the break, and that’s messing up any real quality. We see swell sitting around 4ft for the first week or so, with moderate energy in the 500s to 700s. But it’s the wind that’s spoiling it. That first window on July 12th, with 4ft SSW swell and an onshore breeze, is only marginal at best. Not much to get excited about.
From Sunday, July 12th all the way up through the morning of July 22nd, it’s persistent cross-on wind, shortish swell periods around 12 to 13 seconds, and mostly choppy, lumpy conditions. The afternoons are particularly sloppy. Even though Villa breaks very consistently, the conditions just aren’t offering clean surf.
But there is a small beacon on the horizon: Saturday, July 25th morning. This one stands out. Expect some clouds, a light onshore breeze at 10 mph from the SW, and the swell jumps to 5ft from the SSW, with a solid 14-second period. That’s groundswell, and it’s packing a punch: combined energy hits 1002, which is strong. The wind is light and on (the optimum is NE offshore for Villa, so this is close), and the longer period will give proper shape. It’s a Saturday, so crowds are likely, but this is the best we’ve got across the whole outlook.
Before that, the morning of Sunday, July 19th shows 6ft swell with 12-second period and light cross-on breeze, energy at 955. Not as clean or as powerful, but worth a mention if you’re antsy.
Water temp on the 12th is way up at 69°, a full 6° warmer than usual — very unusual, but comfortable.
So, take it from me: the first week and a half are rough. If you can wait, pencil in the morning of July 25th. That’s your moment.
Rusty.

Information about the Villa Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Villa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Villa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Villa 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 (Villa) 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 Villa 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.
Villa is 20 km (12 miles) from the city of Lima. If you plan a holiday in Lima, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lima. Lima has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
