Las Urracas Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for Las Urracas.

This is one of those stretches where the surf shows up, but it’s going to take a bit of patience for the really good windows. The first few days are a bit of a tease – the swell is there, but the wind is just cross-on enough to keep things a little bumpy. Nothing terrible, but not the kind of glass you dream about. The water temp is sitting around 64°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing out of the ordinary.

Tuesday the 7th starts off with a 5ft SW swell at a very long 16 seconds, but that light cross-on breeze is just enough to put a scuff on the face. The combined energy reading (975) is solid, but the conditions are holding it back. Wednesday and Thursday stay in that same pattern – waist-to-chest high SW groundswell, but the wind never gives us a full break.

The first real standout hits on Friday the 10th afternoon. The wind drops to glass, the swell holds at 4ft from the SW, and the energy is pumping at 743. This is the moment where Las Urracas will show its quality – long lines, clean faces, and you’ll feel the power in every takeoff. This is the pick of the first week.

Sunday the 12th afternoon also goes glassy, with a 3ft SW swell, and Monday the 13th morning sees a clean cross-off breeze with a 4ft SSW swell – another solid window for a session.

Now, looking further out, the real heavy stuff is brewing. The 18th of July (Saturday) brings a jump in size – 6ft SSW groundswell with 17 seconds between waves and a combined energy of 1571 in the morning. That’s punchy, powerful, and not for the faint-hearted. The afternoon goes glassy, with the same size and energy at 1425, and the forecast is calling for excellent conditions for experienced surfers. If you’ve got the skill, that’s your day.

The 21st of July (Tuesday) morning is another big one: 6ft SW swell, glassy wind, and energy at 1097. That’s solid, clean, and demanding. This reef handles that direction beautifully, but it’s expert territory at that size.

Through the rest of the second week, there are plenty of smaller, glassy windows – the 14th, 15th, 17th, 20th, and 22nd all have clean or glassy moments with fun waves in the 3ft to 5ft range. Nothing that’ll blow your mind after that big Saturday, but consistent enough to keep the stoke alive.

Crowds are listed as "sometimes" here, so you might have company, but it’s not usually a circus. The water temp anomaly is normal, so just your standard wetsuit or spring suit.

Best on offer: Friday 10th afternoon for the first clean, quality swell, and Saturday 18th afternoon for the big, powerful, glassy session – that one’s the standout.

Rusty.
