The Lowdown
Alright mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Andora region over the next two weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is pretty grim for a while. There’s a long stretch of nothing worth getting wet for. The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until the morning of Friday, August 28th. Until then, we’re looking at a whole lot of flat, weak, and messy conditions. The wind is mostly light and cross-offshore, which is a tease, but the swell just isn’t there. The water temperature feels pretty average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
The standout session, and honestly the only one worth considering, is the Friday morning, August 28th at Andora. We’ve got a moderate pulse of energy coming in, with the combined swell energy reading a solid 264. That’s a decent amount of juice. The swell is from the SSW at 5ft, with a period of 8 seconds, so it’s a short-period wind swell, but it’ll have some push. The wind is light and cross-off from the west, which should keep the surface clean. The water temp is about average for the time of year. It’s a fairly consistent spot, so it should be breaking. Just keep in mind the swell direction is from the SSW, which is a bit off the optimum S direction for this spot, but it’s still the best we’ve got by a long shot. The afternoon of the same day gets messy with a strong SSW wind, so get in early.
Before that, the afternoon of Friday, August 21st has a bit of energy (154 combined) and 4ft SSW swell, but the wind is a fresh cross-shore from the SSW, making it lumpy. The morning of the 21st is cleaner, but the swell is much smaller. Honestly, the 28th is the only real window of quality.
After that, we drop back into small and weak surf for the rest of the forecast period. The morning of Saturday, August 29th has a light offshore wind, but the swell is only 2ft, so it’s a long shot for a log.
So, to sum it up, mark your calendar for the morning of Friday, August 28th. That’s your best bet. Everything else is a flat spell with a few days of tiny, weak waves. It’s a tough run, but that one morning should offer a few fun ones.
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.
