The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me tell you straight up – this 16-day window for Andora is a tough one for us paddle surfers. The first week and a half is basically flat. We're looking at a real drought of swell here.
The first time we see any kind of life in the water is on the 16th of September, but it’s just a tiny 0.7ft ripple with a 4-second period and cross-on wind. Not worth getting the board wet for. The real story is a long stretch with nothing. From now until the 25th of September, you'll be looking at a lake. There’s barely a wave to be found. The water is running much warmer than normal for this time of year – a solid 9° warmer than usual, which is very unusual, so at least the swim will be comfortable.
There’s really no standout option here. The best we can hope for is a sniff of something on the morning of the 25th of September. We get a glimmer with a 1ft swell from the ESE, period of 6 seconds. The wind turns glassy early, so it’ll be clean. It’s weak energy though (13). It’s a beginner-friendly size, but it’s a beach break with that short period, so don’t expect any power. The crowds are often out at Andora, so expect company even for this tiny stuff.
That little pulse fades quickly. The weekend of the 27th and 28th sees some stronger wind from the North at 12 mph, but the swell drops back to nothing. Honestly, this is a blank run that’s pretty normal for the area during a lull. It tends not to stay poor for long, forecasts can change, but for now, give it a rest. The setup with the onshore winds and minimal swell looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard.

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