The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the 16-day window for Andora.
Mate, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The forecast is basically a flat spell with no real surf on offer. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing. The first recommendation for surf doesn’t come up, and the whole outlook is filled with “poor surf conditions” for every single session. There’s a big gap of days with no real waves to speak of.
The water temperature is sitting at 82°F, which is a massive 9°F warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, feels like bathwater.
The only faint glimmer comes from a few tiny pulses. On the morning of Friday the 26th of July, there’s a tiny 1ft swell from the southwest with a period of 8 seconds, giving a combined energy of 37 (weak). The wind is a cross-offshore from the north at 12 mph, which at least keeps the surface clean. The break is Andora, a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot that’s fairly exposed to the south. The optimum swell direction is from the south, and this is southwest, so it’s close. Crowds are often there, so expect company. The swell is tiny, so it’s not a standout, just the least bad option in a dead period.
The following morning on Saturday the 27th of July, there’s a tiny 0.3ft from the west with a period of 10 seconds, energy of 4 (weak). The wind is a clean cross-off from the north at 19 mph, but the swell is barely a ripple.
For the rest of the window, it’s a flat, empty ocean. The period from the 28th of July right through to the 1st of August shows zeros across the board – no swell, no energy. The winds are often light or glassy, but there’s nothing to ride.
If you’re a kite surfer, the onshore and cross-onshore winds on some afternoons might offer a bit of fun, but for paddle surfing, this is a total blank. It’s a fairly normal situation for the area when the swell doesn’t show up, but it’s frustrating. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, I’d hang the board up.
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.
