Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. The pickings are slim, but there’s a little window of fun if you know where to look.
We’re talking about Arguineguin, a reef set-up that’s inconsistent, so don’t expect it to just turn on. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, but with the swell coming from the south, it needs the right window. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
The best of the lot is the Saturday morning, July 11th. We’ve got a glassy start with the wind coming from the WSW at 3 mph, and the swell is a tiny 1 ft from the SSW, but it’s got a lovely long period of 19 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, and the combined energy is moderate (217). The key is the glassy wind – it’ll be clean as a whistle. Those long-period swells can be a bit tricky on a reef, but for a beginner spot, it’ll be easy paddling with long waits between sets. For a few hours there, it’ll be the pick of the bunch.
Sunday morning, July 12th is also worth a mention. Another glassy start, with a 2 ft swell from the SSW, at 18 seconds. The energy is still moderate (246). The wind is NNE at 3 mph, keeping it clean. This is the other standout.
After that, it fades fast. The rest of the week is mostly small, weak, and often with cross-off winds. By Tuesday the 14th, the period drops, and the energy falls off a cliff. There’s a gap from the afternoon of the 14th right through to the end of the 16-day window with almost nothing worthwhile. The swell gets tiny, the period goes short, and the energy is in the double digits. It’s mostly poor conditions.
So, honestly, your best bet is to hit it on Saturday the 11th or Sunday the 12th, first thing in the morning. It’s not going to be big, but it’ll be clean, and that’s all you can ask for right now.
Rusty.

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.
