The Lowdown
Alright, let's switch to feet and get this in imperial. Rusty here again, same deal.
We've got one break, Calita, and a long 16-day outlook that's mostly a bummer. The surf window doesn't even open until Saturday, August 8th. Before that, Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th are totally flat.
Calita is a reef break, open to an ESE swell. The water is about 84°, which is a massive 6° warmer than what's typical for this time of year.
Saturday the 8th morning brings a tiny 0.7ft wave from the ESE, with a short 4-second period. The combined energy is a weak 3. The wind is glassy, so the surface will be clean. By afternoon, it's 1ft from the SE, period 5 seconds, energy up to 6. But the wind turns cross-onshore, making it a bit choppy.
Sunday morning the 9th is your best chance. You've got 1ft from the ESE at 5 seconds (energy 7) and a light cross-offshore breeze. It'll be clean, but tiny. The afternoon swell jumps to 3ft from the E, period 6 seconds, and the energy hits 41. But the wind picks up to a 12 mph cross-shore, so it won't be glassy.
From Monday the 10th through Wednesday the 19th, it's basically flat or small with crummy wind. Tuesday morning the 11th has 1ft, glassy, with an energy of 9—it's something, but nothing special.
The only other highlight is Thursday morning, August 20th. That shows 2ft from the ESE, 6-second period, with an energy of 35, and the wind is dead calm and glassy. That'll be your runner-up for the cleanest wave of the period.
So, I'd say Sunday morning, August 9th, is the one to keep an eye on for a clean little session. Thursday the 20th morning is the second call. Everything else is either blown out or barely there.
With waves this small and winds that often aren't favorable, it might be more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddler's paradise.
Stay patient.
Rusty.

Information about the Calita Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Calita provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Calita can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Calita 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 (Calita) 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 Calita 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.
Calita is 5 km (3 miles) from Alicante. If you plan a holiday in Valencia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Alicante. Alicante has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
