Alright folks, Rusty here, lookin’ at what we’ve got for Fuengirola over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s looking pretty grim. The waves are tiny, the energy is weak, and there’s no solid, rideable swell on the horizon. It’s a long dry spell ahead.
We start off with a bit of a tease on Friday, July 3rd. The swell is a weak 3ft from the east with a short, weak 6-second period. The combined energy is a low 54 (weak energy). What really kills it though is that cross-onshore wind, making it choppy. Not worth paddling out. That stretches right through the weekend – Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th you’re looking at the same tiny, weak swell with light but mostly cross or cross-onshore winds. It’s poor surf conditions all the way.
By Monday the 6th, we’re dropping off a cliff. The swell goes down to 2ft, energy falls to 12 (weak energy). It’s flat out poor. Tuesday the 7th is glassy and pretty, with 1ft waves and energy down to 4, but it’s too small to do anything. And then from Wednesday the 8th right through to Sunday the 12th, we’ve got no swell at all – zero energy recorded. A full 5-day gap with absolutely nothing.
There’s a tiny pulse that shows up again around Monday the 13th of July, with a 0.7ft wave and energy of 1, but that’s barely a ripple. Mornings on the 14th and 15th have some clean, glassy moments, but with swell reaching only 2ft and energy of just 15 (weak energy), it’s strictly a beginner-on-a-foamie kinda day, if you’re desperate. The water is 74° and running about 4° warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s actually pleasant for a swim if nothing else. The break at Fuengirola is fairly consistent but it’s just not got the swell.
Honestly, the whole 16-day stretch is a flat spell. There’s no standout day. Even the tiny bump on the 15th and 17th mornings is too small to get excited about. If you’re a kite surfer, the clean cross-off winds on some of those flat days might interest you, but for us wave hunters, it’s a dud. Better luck next time.
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.
