Andora Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what we’ve got for the next couple of weeks. I’m not gonna lie to ya, this is a tough stretch. We’ve got a pretty quiet outlook overall, with nothing really pushing through to get the waves going proper.

First up, we’re looking at a real flat spell kicking things off. From Monday the 7th right through until Tuesday morning the 15th of September, there’s basically nothing on the table. We go almost 8 full days with just tiny, insignificant lumps that aren’t worth paddling for. A few mornings look clean and glassy, but with no swell to push, you’re just sitting there.

The first glimmer of something rideable shows up on Wednesday morning the 9th, but I wouldn't get too excited. We get a little pulse from the southwest, about 2 ft at a short period of only 4 seconds. The combined energy is super weak (17), so it’s really just a tiny windswell. If you're a complete beginner and the glassy conditions hold with that light northwesterly, you *might* get a few tiny knee-high sliders at Andora. But let’s be real, those are closeouts.

The next couple of weeks just keep serving up the same story. A few tiny pulses here and there, but nothing with the size, period, or consistency to be a genuine go. Winds are often light or clean in the mornings, but the swell just isn't there to make use of it. We see a subtle uptick on Friday morning the 18th of September. The swell builds to 5 ft from the southwest, with a period of 6 seconds, and the energy finally gets into moderate territory at 179. But here’s the kicker – that early clean spell gets wrecked by strong cross-onshore winds in the afternoon. Sea surface temps are about average for this time of year, so nothing special there.

So here's the honest truth: there isn't a single standout in this 16-day window. For the whole stretch, we’ve got maybe one or two mornings that are borderline worth a drive, and even then, the wave quality won't be anything to write home about. The crowds at Andora can be an issue when it's good, but don't let that scare you – it’s not gonna be happening. This is one of those dry runs you get sometimes. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, I’d save the wax for another week.

Rusty.
