The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about this Arguineguin stretch.
The whole 16-day window starts off with a whisper of a swell, but it’s not really going to get you out of bed. The first week is mostly a bust. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing special.
The only real chance to get wet is on Tuesday the 21st and Wednesday the 22nd. We’ve got a tiny 1ft to 1.0ft groundswell out of the SSW. The period is a solid 13 seconds, which is nice and long, so the waves will have some shape. The combined energy is only 63 (moderate) on Tuesday morning, so it’s weak, but it’s clean. The wind is glassy in the morning, then a light cross-off in the afternoon. For a spot that’s *inconsistent* like Arguineguin, this is a rare little window. It’s a beginner-friendly reef, so that tiny wave is perfect for learning. Crowds are possible, so expect a few heads.
Then, from the 22nd afternoon straight through the end of the month, it’s a total flat spell. The swell drops to 0.3ft, and the combined energy hits single digits. The wind is light and sometimes glassy, but there’s zero wave energy. This is a normal dry spell for the area, so don’t stress.
There’s a tiny pulse on the 1st of August, with a 0.7ft SSW swell, but the energy is still weak (25). By the 2nd of August, we get a bump to 1.0ft, but the energy is only 42. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’s clean, but the waves are just too small.
For a true standout, Tuesday the 21st morning is it. The glassy wind, the long period, and that tiny bit of energy all come together. But keep your expectations in check – it’s a tiny wave.
For the rest of the time, it’s a waiting game. The setup is too small for anything else. Maybe a kite surfer could have some fun, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go.
Rusty out.

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.
