The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be honest with you – this is a tough one. The forecast for the next 16 days is a real struggle. There’s just no decent surf on the cards for Fuengirola (Fuengirola). The swell is either non-existent or so small it’s barely a ripple, and the wave energy is pitiful. We’re looking at a long, frustrating gap with no real recommendations.
The first record we see is for the morning of Saturday the 22nd of August, and it’s already a write-off. That pattern just keeps going. For the first week, from the 22nd through to the 29th of August, everything is flat. The combined energy of any swell is zero or a measly 1 to 3 (weak energy). You’d be better off swimming.
Then, on the morning of Sunday the 30th of August, we get a tiny pulse of 1 ft from the east, with a short period of 4 seconds. The energy is still only 3 (weak). By the afternoon, it’s 1 ft from the east-southeast, period of 4 seconds. It’s still poor. The wind is onshore, making it messy.
The closest we get to anything is the morning of Monday the 31st of August. The swell picks up to 2 ft from the east, with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy finally hits 16 (weak). The wind is glassy, so it would be clean. But the wave comment says “poor surf conditions,” and it’s still tiny. That’s the best of a bad bunch.
After that, it’s back to tiny, weak swells. The 1st of September has a morning with 1 ft from the east and glassy winds, but the energy is only 7. The 3rd of September morning has 2 ft from the east with a glassy start, but again, no real push.
There is simply nothing to get excited about here. For a spot that is fairly consistent, this is a rough blank run. The water temperature is 81°F, which is 7° warmer than average – that’s very unusual for the time of year. The water is warm, but the waves are not.
Stick to the beach or the pool. This is a total flat spell, and it’s going to feel like it. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to chase.

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.
