Andora Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. I’ve had a good look at the charts for Andora and honestly, it’s gonna be a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is looking flat and quiet. The first couple of days have a little ripple but nothing you’d even call a wave. There’s a long gap of no real surf through the middle of the period, and even the little pulses that show up later are for beginners only. This is one of those blank runs that’s pretty normal for the area when the swell just doesn’t line up.

Let’s start with Friday, the 4th of September. Friday morning is dead flat—0.3ft from the west with a short period around 6 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 1 (weak). The wind is glassy from the northwest, so the water’s like a mirror, but there’s nothing to ride. Friday afternoon sees a light cross-onshore breeze.

Saturday the 5th keeps up the same story. Saturday morning has a tiny 1ft south swell, period of just 4 seconds, and energy is only 3 (weak). The wind is cross-offshore, so the surface is clean, but the swell is laughably small. Saturday afternoon brings a bit of onshore wind. Sunday the 6th is back to glassy with 0.7ft—still not worth paddling out for.

Monday the 7th through to Tuesday the 8th have zero swell recorded. Just clean, flat conditions. Not a thing.

Wednesday the 9th of September shows a little glimpse of hope. Wednesday morning there’s a 2ft south swell, period at 6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 42 (still weak). The wind is glassy, so it’ll be clean. But for a beginner spot, that’s about the only time you could even mess around on a foamie. Wednesday afternoon gets a bit bumpy with a risk of thunderstorms.

From Thursday the 10th we go back downhill. The swell drops to 1ft and the energy craters. The wind is cross-offshore in the morning so it’s clean, but you’re just floating. Friday the 11th has 0.3ft from the southwest, period 7 seconds. Saturday the 12th, same story. There’s a tiny offshore wind Saturday morning, but 0.3ft is nothing.

The rest of the second week is more of the same—Sunday the 13th has a 0.7ft windswell from the east-northeast with a period of just 2 seconds, energy of 1 (weak). The wind is 16 mph and cross-offshore, so it’s clean but the swell is junk. By Tuesday the 15th we get a bit of a pulse: 2ft from the south, period 6 seconds, energy up to 35 (weak). But it’s a cross-shore wind at 16 mph, making it choppy and messy. Not a good look.

Wednesday the 16th has 1ft, Thursday the 17th has 1ft from the east-northeast at 3 seconds—absolutely tiny. And from Friday the 18th onward, it’s flat again.

So, the best on offer? Honestly, there’s no standout. If you’re absolutely desperate, Wednesday the 9th of September morning is the cleanest chance with 2ft and glassy conditions. But that’s it. Even then, it’s beginner territory. The water temperature is 81°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year—over 9 degrees above average, which is very unusual and makes for a warm but frustrating wait.

No standouts, no real swell. Sometimes you just have to leave the board in the car and enjoy the sun.

Rusty.
