The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's cookin' for Arguineguin over the next couple of weeks. I'll be honest—this stretch is a tough one. We've got a big flat spell before anything even looks like a wave.
The first real chance of a ride comes on Wednesday, September 16th. For the first week and a half, it's mostly tiny, weak surf with swell heights barely reaching 1ft. The water temp is 75°, right about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
From now through Tuesday the 15th, it's mostly flat. There are a few days where the swell tries to show up—like Tuesday the 8th with a 0.3ft at 18 seconds from the S, and Wednesday the 9th with 0.7ft at 16 seconds—but these are just whispers. The combined energy never cracks 38, and even with clean, glassy winds, there's just nothing to ride. Not worth paddling out.
The only window that gets a nod is Wednesday the 16th. On the morning, we see a SSW swell of 1ft with a period of 17 seconds, pushing the combined energy to 83 (moderate). The wind is light cross-off from the N at 6 mph, so it'll be clean. The afternoon holds similar with 1ft at 16 seconds (energy 74). This is the best we've got—surfable, but very ordinary. Don't expect much.
After that, Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th show similar tiny SSW pulses (1ft at 14 seconds), but with stronger cross-off winds on Thursday that'll mess it up. Friday morning turns glassy again with light NNE breeze, giving the best chance for a clean but knee-high wave.
The rest of the run into the 21st drops back to flat or near-flat. If you're desperate, Wednesday the 16th through Friday the 18th offers something, but it's a marginal call. Keep the expectations low and the wax fresh.
Rusty.

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.
