The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s goin’ on with Aiguaoliva.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty bleak for a proper paddle. This spot is a reef, and it rarely breaks, so a blank run like this isn’t a total shocker. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with almost nothing to get excited about. The first few days offer tiny, weak, short-period windswell, and the wind is often onshore or cross-onshore, so the quality is just not there. You’re looking at a long gap of poor surf conditions from the start right through the end of the month.
The water is running much warmer than normal for this time of year, at 85°F, which is a solid 6°F above average. That’s a real standout, but it doesn’t help the waves.
There’s a slight glimmer on the morning of August 26th. We get a tiny 2 ft swell from the SE with a period of 6 seconds, but the kicker is the wind – it’s glassy. That’s a major positive. The combined energy is weak (19), so don’t expect any power, but for a clean, small wave session on a forgiving reef, it’s your best bet. That morning is the only time in the whole 16 days where the stars align a little. Even then, the swell is small and the period is short, so it’s not a standout by any stretch.
The rest of the window is just more of the same: tiny waves, onshore winds, and choppy conditions. A few mornings late in the first week of September look clean with offshore winds, but the swell is basically non-existent. The setup here is so small and weak that it’s barely worth a mention.
There’s no real standout session here. The 26th August morning is the only one worth even thinking about, and that’s only if you’re desperate for a slide and have a longboard.
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.

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.
