The Lowdown
Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s brewing for Arguineguin. I’ll be straight with you – for the next week and a half, it’s a pretty grim picture. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak surf with hardly any energy behind it. The breaks that do show up are inconsistent and the swell is just too tiny to get excited about. There’s a real gap in quality from now until the middle of September, so don’t hold your breath.
The first real, albeit very ordinary, chance to get wet comes around the 16th of September. Wednesday morning and afternoon should see a small pulse of 1ft to 1ft swell from the SSW with a period of 16 seconds. That long period is a groundswell, which is a good sign for shape, but the combined energy is still weak (81 to 97). The wind is a cross-off from the N or NNW, so it’ll be clean, but the waves are just too small to be called fun. It’s more of a paddle-around than a surf.
The standout window, if you can call it that, is the morning of the 17th of September. The swell holds at 1ft from the SSW, with a period of 14 seconds, and the wind goes offshore from the NNE at a tiny 3 mph. The combined energy is 82, and the conditions are clean. It’s still weak, but it’s the best we’ve got. For a spot like Arguineguin, which is a reef break that’s very inconsistent, even a small, clean, offshore wave is a rare treat. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
After that, we slide back into flat, poor conditions. The 18th of September has a bit of swell in the morning, but by the afternoon it’s gone again. The 19th is flat, and the 20th sees a return of that 1ft to 1ft range with a long period, but the wind is either cross-on or glassy, so it’s not doing us any favours.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that’s going to get the heart racing. It’s a proper blank run for the area. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, it’s time to fix the dings and wait.
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.
