Table - best surf conditions forecast for Barceloneta over the next 16 days.


Alright, I'll level with you. It's a grim outlook for the next couple of weeks. Our only spot on the map is Barceloneta, and it's not giving us a thing to work with.

We're staring down the barrel of a long, flat spell. For the first few days and pretty much all the way through, we're looking at tiny, weak windswell with onshore winds turning the ocean into a mess. Wednesday morning, July 15th, has a clean look with a light offshore breeze, but the swell is a laughable 0.7ft. It's a total waste of time.

The energy picks up a tiny bit around Tuesday, July 21st, with the combined energy hitting 63 (moderate), but even then, the swell is a weak 3ft from the SE with a terrible 6-second period and cross-onshore winds. It's a bumpy, low-quality wave that's not worth paddling out for.

The best we can say is that Wednesday morning, July 15th, and Friday morning, July 17th, have glassy, clean conditions, but with absolutely zero swell. The water is sitting at 78°, which is a touch warmer than normal, but that's cold comfort when there's nothing to ride. For a beach break like Barceloneta, with barely a ripple and onshore winds, this setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard, if anything.

Hang in there, mates. It's a blank run, but it's normal for this area. Forecasts can change.

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.
