The Lowdown
Right then, let’s take a look at what’s on the cards for Fuengirola. Straight up, I gotta tell you, this is a tough run. The charts are pretty much flat for the next week, with the first proper surfable movement not showing up until Friday the 7th of August, and even then it’s barely a whisper. There’s a gap here of almost six days with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. You’d be better off keeping the board in the car and enjoying the sunshine.
Water temps are sitting at 74 °F, which is about normal for this time of year. Nothing unusual there.
Friday morning the 7th will see a tiny pulse of swell, only 0.7 ft from the ENE, with a period of just 3 seconds. That’s pure wind chop, not a wave you can really ride. The combined energy is basically nothing (1). It’s glassy early with a light NE wind, but it’s going to be frustrating.
Saturday the 8th offers the best of a bad bunch. Morning sees 1.0 ft from the east, period up to 4 seconds, and a cross-offshore wind from the west at 6 mph. The energy is still pitiful (4), but for a complete beginner on a foamie, it might just be enough to bob around on. It’s clean though, I’ll give it that.
Beyond that, the whole second week is more of the same – tiny dribbles of east swell with no power, mostly under 1 ft, and combined energy never breaking double digits. The wind does swing offshore at times, and you’ll get some glassy mornings, but without any swell to work with, it’s pretty hopeless. Honestly, for anyone wanting to actually catch a wave, this setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The beach is exposed to the east, and with those light cross-off winds, a kite would have a field day.
For the surfer, there’s nothing to recommend here. The whole 16-day window is a write-off.

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.
