The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the next couple of weeks around Barcelona are looking pretty flat. Don't get your hopes up for a proper paddle.

We’ve got a long stretch ahead with very little energy. The forecast shows a gap of several days with no real surf to speak of. The first hint of anything is on the morning of Tuesday the 14th, but honestly, it’s a struggle. We’re looking at a tiny 2 ft ESE swell with a short period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 21. The wind is cross-onshore, so it’s going to be a messy, bumpy mess. That’s about as good as it gets for the whole run, which tells you everything you need to know.

The rest of the outlook is just a series of tiny, weak swells. There are a few glassy mornings, like Thursday the 16th and Saturday the 18th, where the water will look like a mirror, but the swell is negligible – 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft. It’s pretty, but not rideable. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so don't expect any surprises there.

Through the second week, into the 20s, it’s more of the same. We see a few bumps up to 2 ft on the 25th and 28th, but the energy is still pathetic (combined energy values of 14 and 21). The wind is often cross or onshore, so even those tiny waves won't be clean. The best call might be a glassy morning, like the 24th or 25th, with a 0.7-1.0 ft swell, but you’re realistically looking at a lake.

For now, Barceloneta is a beginner’s spot at the best of times, and it’s inconsistent. This setup isn't worth a trip. It’s the kind of forecast where you’d be better off finding a different hobby for a couple of weeks. Forecasts can change, but this one looks like a solid blank run.

Rusty.

Information about the Barceloneta Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Barceloneta provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Barceloneta can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Barceloneta 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 (Barceloneta) 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 Barceloneta 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.

Barceloneta is 2 km (1 miles) from the city of Ciutat Vella. If you plan a holiday in Catalunia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ciutat Vella. Ciutat Vella has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
