Aiguaoliva Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the Aiguaoliva area.

Well, I gotta be straight with you, this is a tough one to call. The forecast is showing a real dry spell for surf. We're looking at a solid 16-day window from Thursday the 23rd of July right through to Friday the 7th of August, and honestly, there's not a single session that's going to get the heart pumping. Every single time slot is marked as "poor surf conditions." The swell is tiny, often less than 2 ft or even flat, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, just chopping up whatever weak energy is there.

For the first week, we’ve got a few mornings like Saturday the 25th, Monday the 27th, and Tuesday the 28th with a light cross-offshore or offshore breeze, which would keep the surface clean. But the swell is just too small—1 ft to 2 ft—and the period is short, around 4 to 6 seconds. The combined wave energy is minimal, for instance only a 20 (weak energy) on Monday morning. It’s pretty much a flat spell.

Looking further out, the second week doesn't offer any hope either. The biggest swell we see is on the morning of Saturday the 1st of August, with a 3 ft swell from the SSE, but it’s a short 5-second period and the wind is a cross-shore breeze, making for messy conditions. The combined energy that morning is still only 24 (weak energy). The rest of the week is more of the same: tiny, weak, and mostly blown out.

The Aiguaoliva break itself is a reef, but it's marked as "rarely breaks," and this forecast proves it. There's simply no swell to make it work. For a beginner spot, the swell never gets above 3 ft, which is fine, but it's the complete lack of quality wave energy that's the problem.

This is a tough one for the area. A blank run like this is more normal for a spot that rarely breaks, so it's not a huge surprise. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because things can change, but for now, don't bother packing the board.

Rusty.
