The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's cookin' in the water. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch ahead.
Overall, we're lookin' at a long, dry spell. The swell is virtually non-existent for most of the next two and a half weeks. We're talking about a period from now, starting with Saturday afternoon, and then running all the way through to early Sunday morning on the 23rd of August with barely a ripple to work with. That’s a solid 14-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The only spot in the picture is Fuengirola, but there's just no energy reaching it.
The tiny bit of movement we might see is from the east, but the combined energy levels are in the single digits or low double digits (0 to 2) – basically, it's flat. The water temp is sitting around 74° which is normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s normal.
There’s a glimmer on the very tail end of the outlook. On the morning of Sunday the 23rd of August, we get a whisper of potential. Fuengirola might see a tiny 0.3 ft easterly swell with a period of 6 seconds. It’s puny, but the wind is forecast to be a light cross-shore. Don’t get your hopes up, it’s a long way off and the energy (1) is still weak. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those days where the wind picks up, like the afternoon of the 19th with a fresh breeze.
There’s no standout session here, folks. The best advice I can give is to keep the board in the car in case a sneaky little bump shows up, but don't plan your life around it. The forecasts can change, but right now, this is a blank run.

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.
