The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the charts for the coming weeks and honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch for Fuengirola. We’re staring down a long, dry spell with nothing really worth paddling out for.
The whole 16-day window is basically a write-off. We’ve got a massive gap of flat, poor surf conditions stretching from the start right through most of the period. The first real hint of anything doesn’t even show up until the 15th of August, and even then, it’s barely a ripple. You’ll see a few tiny pulses of swell around the 11th and 12th, but we’re talking ankle-high slop at best – not worth getting wet for.
The water temperature is sitting around 75°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, if you’re desperate for a splash, the only window that’s even worth mentioning is the morning of the 16th of August. There’s a tiny 1 ft swell from the east, with a period of 5 seconds and combined energy of just 5 – that’s weak, tired stuff. But the wind is glassy out of the NNW, which is about as clean as it gets. It’s a beginner-level wave, if you can even call it that, and it’ll be a dice roll whether it even breaks. Honestly, for a place like Fuengirola, this kind of flat run isn’t unusual – it’s just one of those stretches where the ocean takes a nap.
Hang in there, and keep an eye on the charts – it tends not to stay this poor for long.

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.
