The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. The swell forecast for this part of the coast is pretty grim, so I’ll level with you straight up.
We’re looking at a long, quiet spell. From now until the morning of Monday the 3rd of August, there’s absolutely no surf on offer. Zero. A flat spell that lasts nearly a week is tough, but it happens here. The waiting game begins.
Things finally stir on Monday morning, the 3rd of August. It’s tiny, just a 1ft pulse from the south with a short, weak period of 4 seconds. The combined swell energy is a measly 2. It’s barely enough to wet the board, but the air is glassy, which is nice. Still, it’s a poor day for any real surfing.
Tuesday the 4th of August sees a slight improvement. Still small at 1ft from the SSW, but the period bumps up to 7 seconds, and the energy hits 20. The morning wind is offshore from the NNE, so El Cantal Roig (Spain) will look clean, but it won’t have enough push to get excited about. It remains a poor surf scenario overall.
The rest of the run into the second week is more of the same: tiny swells in the 0.6ft to 1ft range, mostly short period, and while we get some clean, glassy mornings and offshore breezes, the waves just aren’t there. The water here is running much warmer than normal for this time of year by a solid 3°, which is unusual, but that won’t help the flat spell.
So, the honest truth is there are no standouts in this 16-day window. The closest we get to a wave is on Tuesday the 4th, and that’s still a poor option. It’s a blank run that’s more normal for this area when the swell windows close up. Keep the board waxed nearby, because it tends not to stay this way forever, and forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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

If you surf the same spot (El Cantal Roig) 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 El Cantal Roig 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.
