Table - best surf conditions forecast for Fuengirola over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be real about this forecast – it’s a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell for the next 16 days around Fuengirola.
The first week and a half is basically a write-off. From now through the morning of the 21st of July, the swell is tiny, with heights barely a ripple. It’s weak, with combined energy values stuck at 1 (one measly point). The water temp is about average for the time of year, but you won’t care about that because you’ll just be sitting there floating. There’s a big gap of over a week with no real surf on offer.
Honestly, the only flicker of hope comes late on the 21st and into the 22nd of July. The afternoon of the 21st sees a tiny bump, with a 2ft easterly swell and combined energy hitting 20 (moderate). The morning of the 22nd of July is the one real standout of the entire outlook. Swell builds to 3ft from the east, with a period of 7 seconds, and combined energy at 74 (moderate). The saving grace? The wind is dead calm, glassy conditions. It’ll be clean, but it’s still small, ordinary surf. The wave comment says it best: “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” For a beginner break, that’s about as good as it gets.
After that, it fades right back to nothing. The rest of the 16 days is flat, with poor surf conditions and no energy. For a break that’s fairly consistent, this is a real bummer, but forecasts can always change. Right now, though, it’s a case of keeping the board in the car and hoping for the best.
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.
