The Lowdown
Alright, let’s cut to it. The next sixteen days at Cabo Roche look pretty grim for anyone wanting to get their head wet. There’s no real swell energy out there, the numbers are just way too small to get excited about. We're looking at a long stretch of weak, knee-high slop, and most of it isn't even worth the walk down the beach.
The water temp is around 74°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so you won't be freezing while you're watching the nothingness roll through.
If you’re desperate, the only real chance of a wave that’s even half-rideable is on the morning of Thursday, August 13th. It’s not going to be pumping, but it’s the best we get. The conditions will be glassy with a light offshore breeze, and there’s a tiny 2ft swell from the west with a 9-second period. The energy is still weak, but that clean surface is a big deal. It’s a tiny, clean day for a longboard, nothing more.
The morning after, Friday the 14th, is also a slight possibility. Same story, small 2ft west swell, but a light cross-offshore wind should keep the surface clean. But again, it's not much.
From the 16th onwards, it just flat-lines. We're talking 1ft or less, with energy values dropping to nothing. The wind might be offshore and the conditions clean, but there’s no ocean power to make any of it work. It's a flat spell. Don't even bother checking the buoys for that stretch.
So, the only day worth pointing at is Thursday the 13th. It's not a standout, but it's the only window where we get any sort of clean, surfable waves. The rest of the fortnight is a total loss for surfing. Might be a good time to take up golf.

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.
