Table - best surf conditions forecast for Fuengirola over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s be honest here: Fuengirola is looking at a blank 16 days, and there’s just no way around it.
We start July 8 with nothing, and the whole stretch stays virtually flat. You’ll see some epic-looking mornings – glassy water, light offshores – but the ocean is dead. A total tease.
There’s a tiny bump on July 13: maybe 0.3ft from the east with a short 6-second interval, combined energy only (1). That’s barely a wrinkle. The best of a bad lot shows up on July 23 (Thursday morning) with the swell reaching 1ft from the east at 5 seconds, energy still pathetic at (7). By Thursday afternoon it pushes to 2ft from the east, 6-second period, and energy climbs to (26) – still ridiculously weak. It’s the biggest pulse in the whole run, but that’s not saying much.
Winds do try to play nice at times. WNW offshores on the mornings of July 10 and 11, even glass off on July 12 and 18. But with no swell to work with, clean conditions are just a cruel joke. By the time that 2ft bump arrives on July 23 afternoon, the wind is onshore from the ESE, so it’ll be blown out anyway.
Water temp is 75° at the start, running 4° warmer than usual. That’s very unusual for the time of year. Feels like bathwater.
Fuengirola is a beginner-friendly beach break, but it’s completely exposed and usually consistent when there’s any swell. This level of flatness is a proper dry spell. The only tiny glimmer of hope is the morning of July 23: maybe 1ft of east swell with a light cross-off breeze. For a longboard or a foiler, it might just be worth a look. But for a real surf? Nothing doing.
No standouts here. Don’t even bother with the kite gear.

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.
