The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – the outlook for Cabo Roche over the next couple of weeks is pretty grim. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, messy, or blown-out waves, so don’t get too excited.
The only real chance to get wet is on Sunday morning, August 2nd. We’ll see a weak 3ft swell from the west, with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 109, so it’s not going to have much grunt. The good news is a light SSE breeze will keep it clean, so you might snag a few soft ones. But it’s only surfable in a very ordinary way. By the afternoon, the wind turns onshore again and it’s back to junk.
Other than that one morning, the rest of the 16-day window is a total dud. We’ve got a big gap of flat, weak, and choppy conditions from now through the end of July. Even when there’s a little bump in swell, the wind is all wrong – mostly cross-onshore or onshore from the west and northwest, making a mess of everything. The energy readings are in the low double digits or single digits for most of it. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a real bummer.
The standout, if you can call it that, is that Sunday, August 2nd morning. It’s the only time the rating is anything above zero. The 3ft swell from the west might wrap in a bit, and with light wind, it’ll be the cleanest you’ll see all fortnight. But it’s short-period and weak, so don’t expect any power. It’s not for beginners.
That’s the story. Forecasts can change, but for now, I’d leave the boards at home and just enjoy the beach.
Rusty.

Information about the Cabo Roche Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Cabo Roche provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Cabo Roche can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Cabo Roche 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 (Cabo Roche) 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 Cabo Roche 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.
Cabo Roche is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Conil de la Frontera. If you plan a holiday in Andalucia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Conil de la Frontera. Conil de la Frontera has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
