The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk in feet now, because I know some of you think that way.
We’re looking at Arguineguin for the next two weeks, and the news isn’t great. There’s a massive gap with no real surf on offer. Right now and for the rest of July, you’re looking at waves that wouldn’t fill a teacup.
The first little hiccup of hope comes around Sunday, August 2nd, when we see the swell tick up to just 1ft from the SSW. The period is 13 seconds, and the wind looks clean, coming cross-offshore from the NW. The wave energy is still very weak (48). It’s going to be tiny and weak.
Even the best-looking conditions later on, like Sunday, August 9th, with a long-period swell of 16 seconds and clean offshore winds, still only deliver a 0.7ft wave. Energy is still weak (39). A long period on a wave that small just means long waits for nothing.
This spot is known as “inconsistent,” and this forecast is textbook. There is no standout session here; it’s all flat. If you’re deadset on getting wet, you’ll be floating, not surfing.

Information about the Arguineguin Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Arguineguin provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Arguineguin can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Arguineguin 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 (Arguineguin) 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 Arguineguin 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.
