Andora Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next 16 days at Andora are a real test of patience. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak surf with only a couple of faint glimmers on the horizon. The water is currently sitting at a very unusual 82°, which is a massive 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a wild anomaly.

The first real chance of anything rideable doesn’t pop up until the morning of Saturday the 29th of August. That southwest swell is expected to be a mere 3ft, with a short period of 7 seconds, and the energy is weak, only 85. The wind looks solid offshore from the northwest, so conditions should be clean. It’s surfable, but honestly, it’s very ordinary. After that, it’s right back to flat, unrideable junk for over a week.

We then have to wait all the way until the morning of Wednesday the 9th of September. Now, this one is a bit more interesting. The forecast shows a southwest swell pumping up to 5ft with a 7-second period and moderate energy hitting 200. That’s the biggest we’ll see, and it’s borderline too much for beginners. The wind is light from the north-northeast, keeping it clean. It’s still not a world-class day, but in this stretch of small waves, it’s the standout. The afternoon has a bit more cross-onshore wind, so the morning is your window.

For the rest of the period, it’s flat. There’s really nothing else to recommend. If you’re desperate, the 29th of August morning is your best bet, but the 9th of September morning is the better wave by a slim margin. Until then, keep the board in the car, but don’t hold your breath.

Rusty.
