The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, breaking down the surf for you in feet and degrees.
We’re in for a long, flat spell before anything worth talking about shows up. The first week and a half is basically a write-off, with tiny waves and no real energy. The first hint of anything rideable pops up on Wednesday the 16th of September.
That day, Arguineguin gets a long-period groundswell from the SSW, with a period of 16 seconds and a combined energy of 79 (moderate). The wave height is only about 1ft, but it’s a clean, glassy morning with light offshore winds. The water temp is 74°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
Thursday the 17th is another small but clean option. Still a SSW groundswell at 1ft, with a 14-second period, and combined energy of 81 (moderate). The morning is glassy, and the afternoon is cross-offshore. It’s small, but it’s clean. The break can get crowded sometimes, so be ready for company.
The swell is too small for any real power, so it’s a longboard or foiling kind of situation. The water is about average for the season.
After that, the swell just fades away again. The 20th and 22nd have some glassy days, but the waves are barely there. Not much to get excited about.
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.
