Table - best surf conditions forecast for Arguineguin over the next 16 days.
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Arguineguin for the next couple of weeks.
Truth is, it’s a slow start and mostly stays flat for a good while. The first real chance at a wave doesn’t come until Saturday, July 11th. Before that, from Wednesday the 8th through Friday the 10th, it’s all knee-high or smaller slop with a long-period SSW groundswell but barely any power behind it. The combined energy is weak, from 28 to 88 (56 on Wednesday morning). Winds are light and afternoons go glassy, but there’s just no size. Water temp is 72°, right about normal for this time of year.
Saturday morning, July 11th, is the one to circle. Arguineguin reef gets a 0.4m (1ft) SSW swell with a super long 19-second period. Combined energy hits a moderate 222 – the best we see the whole outlook. It’s glassy, calm wind, so the reef will be clean and lined up. Remember, this spot is inconsistent, so when it turns on, it’s a treat. The swell direction is S, which is what this break likes best. Expect small, clean, long-period groundswell. Crowds are possible, so be early.
Sunday the 12th morning is next best: 0.5m (2ft) SSW, 18-second period, combined energy 246, and a light cross-off breeze keeping it tidy. Still small, but definitely rideable. After that, into the second week, it’s back to tiny, weak swells. Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th mornings have 0.5m (2ft) SSW with 14-15 second periods and clean winds, but it’s all very average.
The 19th and 20th of July show a little bump back to 0.5m (2ft) SSW with moderate energy around 110-139, but nothing special. By Thursday the 23rd, it fades to nearly nothing.
So your best bet is Saturday morning, July 11th. Small, glassy, and the only real highlight in this 16-day run. A stretch of quiet like this is pretty normal here when the swell windows don’t cooperate.
Rusty.
