The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on tap for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta tell ya, it’s a tough stretch for the Fuengirola area. The first week is pretty much a write-off with tiny, weak waves and a lot of onshore junk. The water’s sitting at 73°, which is pretty standard for this time of year – nothing to write home about.
We’ve got a long, flat spell from Monday the 9th right through to Saturday the 14th, with barely a ripple to get excited about. The only flicker of life comes on Sunday the 13th, when we see a bump in east swell pushing 3ft on the morning, but the wind is cross-shore, and the energy is still weak (98). By the afternoon, the swell hits 4ft, and the energy climbs to moderate (220), but that east wind turns cross-onshore, chopping it up. For a beginner spot, that’s not your friend.
The one session that might be worth a look is Monday morning, the 14th of September. The swell drops back to 3ft from the ESE, but the wind goes light and cross-offshore, cleaning it right up. The energy is a bit weak (66), but you’ll find some rideable lines. It’s not pumping, but it’s the cleanest we’ll see in a while. Crowds are always a possibility here, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
Looking further out, the weekend of the 19th and 20th shows a pulse of east swell around 4ft, with moderate energy (154-169). The wind is light and cross-onshore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but there’s some push. By Sunday the 20th, the swell drops to 3ft with a 7-second period. The wind goes glassy in the morning, but the energy is only moderate (100). It’s a maybe, not a lock.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the 14th is your best bet. Otherwise, this stretch of coast is looking like a kite-fishing kind of week. The swell isn’t strong enough to bring the power, and the wind is mostly wrong.
Rusty.

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