Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks along this stretch.
Plain and simple, this is a tough one. For the next 16 days we’ve got a big, empty gap right at the start and it takes a while to get anything going. The first day with any surf at all isn’t until Monday the 13th, and even then it’s barely a ripple. From today through Sunday the 12th, it’s a flat spell – zero swell across the board. Don’t even bother waxing up.
The first glimmer comes Monday morning, July 13th, with a tiny 0.3ft easterly swell at a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is just 1 – that’s next to nothing. Winds are light cross-offshore from the NW, so it would be clean, but you’d be fighting for a ride on a lake. That little bump hangs around through Thursday the 16th, with the best chance being Tuesday morning the 14th when that same 0.3ft easterly swell pushes to a 7-second period, combined energy hitting 2. Still, that’s baby surf, not worth paddling out for unless you’re desperate for a float.
Friday the 17th sees a slight shift – a 0.7ft swell from the SSW with a short 4-second period on Friday morning. Combined energy of 2, and a light cross-offshore breeze from NNW keeps things clean. But again, these are knee-high wobbles at best.
Now, we start to see a bit more life from Sunday the 20th onward. Monday the 20th delivers a 2ft easterly swell in the morning, with a 4-second period, but the combined energy only climbs to 9. By the afternoon it’s 2ft at 5 seconds and 16 energy. Tuesday the 21st is probably the best of the whole stretch: 2ft easterly swell at a 6-second period, combined energy of 23. Tuesday morning has glassy conditions, which is rare and good news. That’s the standout window – still small, but the cleanest and most energy we see.
After that, it fades again. The rest of the fortnight drops right back to tiny 0.3ft to 1.0ft easterly windswell with weak energy, and winds stay light and manageable.
Look, for Fuengirola, it’s a beginner-friendly spot that’s fairly consistent at times, but this forecast shows a real lean spell. Nothing here gets over 5ft, so it’s never too big, but it’s also rarely got enough push. The only slight highlight is Tuesday the 21st morning, with that glassy 2ft easterly swell. If you’ve got a longboard and patience, that’s your moment. Water temperature is sitting at 77°F – that’s much warmer than normal for the time of year, with a 5° anomaly. That’s notably sticky and warm for July.
No standouts to shout about. It’s a quiet run. Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
