The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a quiet spell for the region. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny surf that won't get you out of bed. The first real flicker of life doesn't show up until Sunday, August 16th, so we’ve got a solid two-week gap of nothing worthwhile before that.
Arguineguin (reef)
The water is sitting at 74°, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing to worry about there.
The standout, and really the only window, is on Sunday, August 16th. The morning is a bit of a tease with a 1-foot SSW groundswell, but the period is a very long 20 seconds. That long period will help the shape, but it makes it tricky on a beach setup. The combined energy is still weak (79). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the N, so it’ll be clean. The afternoon picks up a touch, with 1-foot SSW swell from the same very long period (19 seconds), and the energy ticks up to moderate (124). Winds stay light and cross-off. It’s surfable, and for this region, that’s the best we’ve got in the whole 16 days, but it’s nothing to go crazy over. The break is inconsistent, so don't bank on a set rolling through every few minutes.
No other options worth mentioning, mate. It’s a long wait for a very small window.

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.
