The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the first half of this stretch is a quiet one. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with nothing but tiny, unrideable dribble for days. From now until the 12th of September, there’s just no surf worth paddling for. The wind will be glassy at times, but with zero swell, it’s a lake out there. You’d be better off cleaning the wax off your board.
We finally see a pulse of energy arrive on the 13th, but it’s still small. The real action kicks off on Monday the 14th of September. That’s the day to circle.
Fuengirola (Fuengirola) is the only spot on the radar, and it finally wakes up. On Monday morning, we’ve got a clean 5ft swell from the ESE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is solid (229), and the wind is light offshore from the north. That’s a clean, workable wave for intermediate surfers. The water is much colder than normal for this time of year, sitting at 64°, so a decent wetsuit is a must.
The standout window, though, is Monday afternoon. The swell jumps to 8ft from the ESE, with an 8-second period, and the combined energy cranks up to 688. The wind stays clean and cross-off from the southwest. This is the biggest and best-looking swell of the whole forecast. However, at 8ft, this is getting into expert territory – it’s too big for beginners. For the crew who can handle it, the conditions are lining up. Expect crowds here, as Fuengirola is a fairly consistent spot and everyone will be keen to get in.
After that Monday peak, the forecast goes quiet again, with no further recommendations. It’s a short, sharp burst of quality, so make the most of that Monday if you’re in the area.
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.
