The Lowdown
Wednesday morning’s got a bit of lumpy, short-period NW swell pushing in around 3ft at Cala De Meron, but rain showers and that onshore northerly breeze are going to keep it pretty ordinary. It’s a marginal call at best – you’d be scratching for one. The afternoon cleans up to clear skies, but the swell bumps up to 5ft with the wind still on it, so it’s not doing us any favours. The water’s sitting at 69°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but nothing crazy.
Thursday morning is where things start to turn. Glassy conditions, a light WNW breeze, and 4ft of NW swell at 11 seconds – that’s a big step up in quality. There’s moderate wave energy in the water (459), and it’s looking clean. The afternoon stays around 4ft but the wind swings north and gets a bit more on it, so it’s back to marginal.
Friday morning is the first real standout. We’ve got 6ft of NW groundswell hitting at 13 seconds, with glassy conditions and a light NW breeze. The combined energy is jumping to 1190 – that’s solid, powerful stuff. This is excellent for experienced surfers, and with the swell direction lining up with the optimum NNW, this is the pick of the first week. If you’re a beginner, though, this is pushing past the comfort zone. The afternoon jumps up to 8ft but the wind swings NE at 15 km/h, putting a chop on it and making things messy.
Saturday morning keeps the quality high – 6ft of NW at 13 seconds, cross-off ESE breeze, and clean conditions. Energy’s still strong at 1109. Another excellent window for the more experienced crew. The afternoon drops to 5ft, but the wind turns cross-shore and it gets a bit bumpy.
Sunday and Monday fade out. Sunday morning has 4ft at 11 seconds with a cross breeze, and Monday similar – around 4ft at 12 seconds. It’s surfable but nothing to write home about. The energy drops into the 400s, and it’s just marginal.
Then there’s a real gap. Tuesday morning is tiny – 3ft with a cross breeze, and the afternoon drops to 2ft with a long-period 18-second NW swell that’s not doing much. Wednesday morning brings back some glassy conditions with 5ft at 15 seconds – that’s a long-period groundswell, and it’s looking very good (899 energy). This one’s worth keeping an eye on. The afternoon goes cross-on but stays decent.
Thursday the 25th is small – 2ft in the morning, but there’s a sneaky long-period 18-second NW swell in the afternoon that bumps it to 3ft, and it’s glassy. That’s a fun, clean little wave if you’re after something mellow.
Friday the 26th is another standout – 4ft of NW at 14 seconds, glassy conditions, and very good surf. Energy’s at 598, and it’s clean. This is a solid, quality session.
Then it fades again. Saturday the 27th is 3ft at 12 seconds, glassy in the morning but cross-on in the afternoon. Sunday the 28th is tiny – 2ft, and Monday the 29th is mostly flat with a bit of a pulse in the afternoon (6ft but short-period and cross-shore).
Now, the 30th of September – that’s a big one. 10ft of NW at 11 seconds, with glassy conditions in the morning. But this is too big for Cala De Meron. The energy is huge (2100), and while the wind and tide are favorable, this break can’t handle it. That’s expert-only territory, and even then, it’s likely closing out. The afternoon stays at 10ft with a cross-on breeze – same story.
Finally, Thursday the 1st of October brings it back down. Morning has 5ft at 11 seconds with glassy conditions and a light SW wind – very good surf. The afternoon drops to 5ft but the wind swings NE and chops it up.
So, the standout windows are Friday the 18th morning, Saturday the 19th morning, and Wednesday the 23rd morning. If you can only get out once, Friday the 18th morning is the one – solid 6ft, long-period, glassy, and the swell direction is right on the money. The 23rd is a close second with that 15-second groundswell.
This is Rusty, signing off. Get on it when it’s clean.

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