Table - best surf conditions forecast for Andora over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ll level with you – the outlook for Andora over the next couple of weeks is a tough pill to swallow. We’ve got a long stretch of very small, weak surf ahead, and honestly, for a solid week and a half, there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The combined swell energy is sitting at almost nothing most days, with values as low as 1 or 2, meaning the ocean is basically flat. It’s one of those blank runs where the sea just doesn’t have any push. You’d be bobbing around more than riding.
Let’s start where we are. Saturday the 11th into Sunday the 12th, we’re looking at tiny, weak, short-period swell from the ESE, around 2ft to 2ft. That’s not doing anything for anyone. The wind is a cross-on or cross-off, but even when it’s clean on Sunday morning with a light breeze, the swell is just too feeble. The water temperature is a very unusual 80°F – that’s 8°F warmer than normal for this time of year, which is way off the charts. Feels like a bath, but without any waves to enjoy it in.
From Monday the 13th through to Monday the 20th, it’s almost all flat. We’re talking swell heights of 0.3ft or completely non-existent. You’ll get a few glassy mornings – Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th are mirror-calm – but it’s just a lake out there. The combined energy values are all single digits, so there’s zero power in the water. This is a serious gap of nearly 10 days with absolutely no recommendations.
Now, things start to stir a little around Monday the 20th of July. We finally see a pulse of energy. Swell from the SSE stays small, only 2ft to 3ft, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 59 on Monday afternoon, which is at least something to look at. Tuesday the 21st morning brings a little more shape with a 2ft SW swell at 7 seconds, and clean cross-off winds from the north at 9 mph. That’s about the best we get in this whole 16-day window, but it’s still tiny and not what you’d call a standout.
Through the rest of the week, we get a few more mornings with light winds and clean conditions – Wednesday the 22nd, Thursday the 23rd, Friday the 24th – but the swell stays small, between 1ft and 2ft. The period does stretch to 8 seconds on Saturday the 25th, which is a bit more groundswell energy, and the combined energy climbs back to 30. But even then, it’s just ankle-to-knee-high surf.
Andora is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot that’s fairly exposed to the south, and it needs a decent S or SSW groundswell to really work. These tiny, short-period windswells just don’t have the juice. The crowds can be a factor here when it gets good, but with this size, you’ll have the place to yourself. For now, I’d say wait it out or find something else to do. The ocean’s playing hard to get.
Stay patient,
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.
