The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty quiet spell ahead for Fuengirola. We’ve got a solid gap of flat, poor conditions to kick things off. There’s nothing worth paddlin’ out for from now through July 27th. The wind is messy, the swell’s barely registering, and the combined energy is sitting at zero. It’s a real bummer.
Our first real chance to get wet doesn’t pop up until Tuesday, July 28th. That morning, we’ll see some small 3ft swell creep in from the east with a 7-second period. The combined energy is weak at 92, but the wind is a clean cross-off from the north, so it’ll look tidy. The better part of that day will be the afternoon. The swell bumps up a touch to 4ft from the east, still with a 7-second period, but the wind goes totally glassy. That’ll be the best we see all week, with a combined energy of 251 – the only moderate energy we get. The water’s sitting at 74°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Wednesday the 29th will have some small glassy waves again in the morning, 3ft from the east, but the energy drops right back down to 94. It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about. The afternoon gets even smaller and weaker.
From Thursday the 30th all the way through to Sunday, August 10th, it’s a long run of flatness or tiny, weak, and often onshore slop. The swell heights rarely crack 1ft, the periods are short, and the combined energy is almost always in the single digits or teens. There’s simply no punch. A couple of mornings might look glassy, but with zero waves, it’s just a nice day to sit on the beach.
The standout, if you can call it that, is definitely Tuesday, July 28th afternoon at Fuengirola. That’s our only window with a bit of size (4ft from the east), combined with glassy conditions. It’s not big, but it’s the cleanest we’ll get. For beginners, that’s a fun, safe size. For anyone else, it’s a longboard or funboard session. Don’t expect much more than that.
Rusty.

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.
