The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ at Cabo Roche over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – this is one of those outlooks where the ocean just isn’t cooperating. We’ve got a long, dry stretch ahead, so patience is the name of the game.
The pattern for the next 16 days is dominated by tiny, weak swell and persistent onshore or cross-off winds. For the first week, from Monday the 27th of July right through to Sunday the 2nd of August, it’s flat. We’re talking swell heights barely scraping 1.6 ft, with periods under 9 seconds and combined swell energy struggling into the low double digits (21 or less). Monday morning the 27th shows a poor 1.6 ft from the W with a short 6-second period and moderate offshore wind, but the combined energy is a weak 21 – it’s just not worth paddling out.
We then hit a massive gap: from Monday afternoon all the way through to Sunday the 2nd of August, the data shows nothing but “poor surf conditions.” The swell drops to 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft, and even though we get some glassy conditions on the 31st of July and the 2nd of August, there’s simply no wave to ride.
The first real flicker of hope arrives on Monday the 3rd of August in the morning. We finally see a bump – 3 ft from the WNW with a short 5-second period. The combined energy climbs to 64 (moderate), and the wind is calm, giving us glassy conditions. That’s the standout of the whole outlook. It’s small and weak, but for Cabo Roche, that’s as good as it gets right now. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no major shocks there.
After that brief moment, it’s back to poor quality from Monday afternoon onward, with onshore winds killing any chance of clean waves. The swell tries to build a little around the 9th and 10th of August, with 3.6 ft to 4.3 ft from the WNW and combined energy hitting 104 to 150 (moderate), but the wind is onshore every session – onshore from the W or cross-on from the NW. It’s a classic case of swell energy with no quality.
Honestly, the only window I’d even consider is Monday morning the 3rd of August. It’s small and weak, but glassy and the best we’ve got. For the rest of the forecast, you’re better off checking the forecast again in a few days. Things can change.
Stay patient, mates.

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.
