Table - best surf conditions forecast for Arguineguin over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's get the lowdown in feet and miles per hour. We're lookin' at a pretty quiet stretch ahead, but there's a little window that'll get you out of the house.
The main game in town is Arguineguin. It's a reef break, and it's inconsistent, so it's a bit of a fickle mistress. But when she's happy, she's a joy. The water is a balmy 73°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
The one to circle on your calendar is Monday morning, July 13th. The swell is a tiny 2 feet from the SSW, but it's got a long 16-second period – that's proper groundswell that'll wrap around that reef. The wind is glassy, dead calm, so the surface will be like a mirror. The combined energy is moderate at 201, and with that long period on a reef, it's gonna be a fun little wave. It's a beginner spot, and with those conditions, it's about as good as it gets.
Monday afternoon, July 13th, is still okay. Swell is still around 2 feet, 15-second period, combined energy at 149, and still glassy. It's a little less powerful, but still a session.
After that, it's a long, slow fade. From Tuesday, July 14th, right through to the end of the month, it's all small stuff. Swell heights barely hit 1 feet, the combined energy drops into the low double digits, and the wind is mostly light or cross-off. It's clean, but there's just no wave to ride. You'll be sitting on a flat lake for days. The second week is a total write-off.
So, if you want a wave, you know where to be and when. Monday morning, July 13th, is the call.

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.
