The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Arguineguin, a reef setup that likes a good south swell to get going, and honestly, we’re looking at a real slow stretch. From now through the 15th of September, there’s barely a ripple worth talking about. It’s a long dry spell for a break that’s already inconsistent.
You might get a little something on Wednesday the 16th of September. We’ve got a very long-period groundswell from the SSW at 1ft with a period of 16 seconds. The combined energy is weak at 79, so it’s not packing a punch, but that long period will give it some glide. The wind goes glassy and then light offshore from the NE, cleaning it right up. It’s tiny, best for a longboard or a fun shape. The place is sometimes crowded, but you might snag a few clean runners. The next morning, Thursday the 17th, also looks clean with a light NE offshore and swell at 1ft with a 14-second period and energy at 84. That’s your best shot in this whole window. Water temp feels about average for this time of year, around 68° to 72°F, nothing wild.
After that, it all fades back into tiny, poor conditions. The very end of the period, around Thursday the 24th and Friday the 25th of September, brings some glassy mornings and a slight bump in energy, but the swell is still just 1ft to 1ft. Not enough to get the heart racing. For the best of the best, point your board at Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th if you want clean, small waves.
Sit tight, keep watching the horizon.
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.
