The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you what I’m seeing for Andora.
First up, the water temperature is sitting at 83°, which is a massive 8° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual – like swimming in a warm bath, so don’t expect a thick wetsuit.
Right now, there’s no surf to speak of. The forecast is giving us a flat spell for the first week and a half. We’re looking at a dry run from Saturday the 8th all the way through to Saturday the 15th of August. There’s a few days where tiny 0.3ft wobbles show up, but honestly, it’s not worth paddling out for. The swell energy is next to nothing, with combined energy values of just 1 or 2.
Things finally start to stir on Monday the 17th of August. We’ve got a pulse of 2ft to 2ft swell from the south, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is still weak, at 32 to 40, and the wave comment says “poor surf conditions.” The wind on Monday morning is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, and by the afternoon it goes glassy from the SE. It’s clean, but this is really small stuff. Not a standout.
The only real hope in this whole 16-day window comes on Thursday the 20th of August. The morning shows a 3ft swell from the SSW, with a 6-second period, and a combined energy of 55. It’s still weak, but it’s the biggest we’ll get. The wind is light and cross-off from the NNE, so the surface will be clean. For a beginner spot like Andora, this is the best on offer. It’s a fairly exposed beach break, and the swell direction is from the S, which is the optimum direction for this spot. Crowds are often here, so expect some company. This is the one session to target, but keep your expectations in check – it’s not a classic.
After that, it fades back to tiny 0.3ft and 0.7ft remnants through the end of the month. The 23rd of August shows a brief 0.7ft pulse, but it’s nothing to get excited about.
So, to sum it up: a long, flat stretch, then one small, clean morning on the 20th of August that’s worth a look if you’re desperate. It’s a quiet period for Andora.

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.
