The Lowdown
Hey, let’s talk Fuengirola. I’m gonna level with you – this 16-day window is a total dud. We’ve got a long, blank run coming up.
Right now, heading out of July, it’s barely a lick. The morning of Wednesday the 29th gave us a tiny 2ft easterly swell with a short 6-second period, and the energy was weak at 38. You’d struggle to get wet. That fizzled out fast, and from Thursday the 30th onward we’re looking at flat, flat, flat. Nothing at all through the first week of August – a proper dead spell.
The only slight flicker comes towards the end of the run. On the morning of Sunday the 9th of August, there’s a 2ft easterly swell, period still short at 5 seconds, and the energy is up to just 13. Still poor quality. The wind is offshore from the northwest though, so if you’re desperate to bob around, the water’s glassy early. But for any real paddle surfing, it’s a no-go.
The wind does go light offshore or glassy on several mornings, which would give clean conditions if there were any waves. But there aren’t. Every single entry says “poor surf conditions.” Combined swell energy never hits 40, and for most of the outlook it’s zero.
If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoon of Saturday the 8th of August has a solid 15 mph cross-offshore southwesterly and a tiny 1ft bump, so maybe you could get moving. But for a surfer? Nothing. This is just a normal, flat summer for this stretch of the Med.
Stay patient, check back in a few days – things can always change.

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.
