The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this 16-day stretch for Andora is a bit of a tough one. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick wetsuit, but the waves are another story. The first week is mostly flat or tiny, and the only real window of interest pops up in the second week. There’s a long gap of poor conditions from now right through to Thursday, 20 August, when we finally see something surfable.
The standout moment comes on Tuesday morning, 25 August. That’s when we get a pulse of SSW swell pushing 5ft with a 6-second period, and the combined energy hits 194 (moderate). The wind is light from the west, cross-offshore, keeping things clean. It’s not a classic, but it’s the best we’ve got. Andora is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot, and it’s fairly exposed to the south, so this swell direction works. Just be aware—crowds are often here, so get in early. That Tuesday afternoon, the wind swings and the swell jumps to 8ft with 22 mph winds, making it lumpy and only for experts. The rest of the week after that is back to tiny, weak waves, mostly under 2ft, with poor energy.
Overall, if you’re keen, pencil in the morning of Tuesday 25 August. The rest is a write-off for paddle surfing—if the wind gets up and the swell is messy, it might be more of a kite day. Forecasts can change, but for now, keep your expectations low.
Rusty.

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.
