Alright, let’s be honest, the next couple of weeks here in Fuengirola are looking pretty lean. We’ve got a big dry spell right off the bat. From now until around the 20th of July, the surf is basically non-existent. There are days with some tiny bumps, but nothing worth paddling out for.
The first real sign of life doesn’t show up until Monday the 20th. Monday morning you’ll see a tiny 2 ft ripple from the east with a short 4-second period. Energy is minimal at just 8, but it’s glassy out there. The water is sitting at 74°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The closest thing we have to a standout comes later on Monday the 20th in the afternoon. The swell bumps up a bit to 4 ft from the east, period still short at 6 seconds, but the combined energy hits a moderate 104. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the most energy we’ll see. Winds will be light and cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but rideable for the beginner crowd. This break is fairly consistent, so there might be a few fun ones.
Tuesday morning the 21st sees cleaner conditions with a light offshore wind from the WNW, but the swell backs off to 2 ft with only 32 energy. Tuesday afternoon gets choppy with a moderate 16 mph cross-offshore breeze, dropping the swell to 2 ft. After that, the forecast goes flat again.
Bottom line: if you’re itching for a surf, your best bet is the afternoon of Monday the 20th of July. It won't be epic, but it’s the only window with any real push. Everything else is a long stretch of flat, clean but empty water. For this stretch, don't expect much.
Stay patient.

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.
