The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on Arguineguin.

For the next week and a half, it’s a ghost town. From Tuesday the 25th all the way through to Sunday the 30th, the swell is tiny, barely 0.7 ft to 1 ft, and the combined wave energy is weak, often below 100 (like 41 or even 9). Mornings are glassy, but with no push behind it, you’re just floating around.

Things finally wake up on Monday the 31st of August. A long-period SSW groundswell rolls in, hitting 2 ft in the morning with a 15-second interval. Combined energy hits 188 (moderate). Monday afternoon is the real gem: swell holds at 2 ft, still out of the SSW, period 14 seconds, with offshore NNE wind at 6 mph. That’s clean, organized, and rideable. That afternoon is a standout in this forecast.

Tuesday the 1st of September morning is the pick of the lot. Swell pushes to 3 ft from the SSW, with a very long 16-second period, and light cross-off NNW winds keep it tidy. Combined energy jumps to 357 (moderate to strong). That’s the best size and quality of the whole 16 days. This is a proper long-period groundswell, so Arguineguin reef will handle it well. It’s a little inconsistent here and crowds are possible, but when it’s on, it’s on.

After that, it fades fast. Wednesday the 2nd drops to 2 ft, and by Thursday the 3rd we’re back to 1 ft and weak energy (57). From there, it’s a slow slide into flatness through to the 9th of September.

Water temp is about average for the season, nothing wild.

So, bottom line: if you want a wave, mark Monday 31st afternoon and Tuesday 1st morning. That’s your window. Before and after? A long, flat gap.

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.
