The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this 16-day window for Andora is about as flat as a millpond. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing on the cards, and I mean nothing that’s worth paddling out for.
We start with a blank, with no surf at all on Monday the 24th. The water is a very unusual 82°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath. That’s the only interesting thing going on. For the next couple of weeks, we’re looking at tiny dribbles of swell. There’s a bit of knee-high, shin-high slop from the 25th of August through to the 8th of September, but every single reading is stamped "poor surf conditions." The wave energy is absolutely minimal, with the highest combined energy reading hitting just 59 (weak) on the Saturday morning of the 29th, from a 3 ft SSW swell.
The wind is a mixed bag; some mornings are glassy or clean with light offshore breezes from the NW, which is the optimum offshore direction for Andora. But the swell is just too weak and short-period to do anything with it. Friday morning the 28th sees a glassy start with a 2 ft ESE swell, but the period is only 5 seconds – that’s pure wind chop, not a wave you can ride. The best looking conditions in terms of wind are on the 28th of August (Friday morning) with glassy conditions, and the 31st of August (Monday morning) with a glassy 0.3 ft of swell.
Honestly, for a beginner spot that’s fairly consistent, seeing a blank run like this is a bit of a bummer, but it happens. The swell direction is mostly from the S and SSW, which is fine for Andora as it’s fairly exposed to the south, but there’s just no energy in the water. For the more experienced crew, the bigger, stronger winds later in the period (like the 25 mph cross-offshore on the 28th afternoon) might make the beach setup look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There’s just no surf to speak of.
Stay patient, folks. Keep an eye on the charts – it tends not to stay this poor for long.

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.
