The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. This is Rusty, and here’s what I’m seeing for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, it’s a tough start. The first real sniff of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Saturday, August 29th, so we’re looking at a solid week of flat or pretty much useless conditions before that. The whole first week is a write-off—tiny, no energy, and onshore breezes wrecking what little there is. You’d be better off cleaning the wax off your board.
For Aiguaoliva, this is a reef break that only rarely breaks, so a blank run like this isn’t that unusual. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird there.
The standout—and I mean the *only* real chance to get wet—is Saturday morning, August 29th. The swell finally shows a pulse: east swell at 3ft, period only 5 seconds, so it’s short-period windswell, not a groundswell. The combined energy is weak, just 52, so don’t expect any punch. What makes it worth a look is the wind: light breeze from the north, cross-offshore, and it’s clean. That’s your window. It’s a beginner-friendly wave anyway, and with those tiny clean conditions, it’d be a fun little session on a log. Only problem—crowds are sometimes an issue here, so you might have company.
After that, it drops back to tiny for days, with nothing else worth paddling out for until another little bump on Friday, September 4th: a 3ft east-northeast swell with a 6-second period, cross-offshore wind, and the energy is a touch higher at 60, but still marginal. It’s surfable, but just barely.
So, bottom line: if you’re desperate, get out there Saturday, August 29th morning. Otherwise, this is a long flat spell for a spot that rarely breaks anyway.
Stay patient,
Rusty.

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