The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a long stretch ahead, but I gotta be honest with you – the next two weeks are looking pretty flat for Fuengirola. There’s a real dry spell on the cards, so don’t go rushing to grab your board just yet.
The first few days, from Friday the 31st of July right through the first week of August, are basically a write-off. We’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. The combined energy of all swells directed here is at a measly 2 or less, with wave heights barely scraping 0.7ft on the rare occasion. That’s ankle-snappers at best, and with the wind mostly cross-off or light off, the water might be clean, but there’s simply no push. The water temperature is sitting about average for the time of year, so it’s a warm, flat wait.
Things don’t really improve as we move into the second week. The 8th of August shows a tiny easterly bump with a 0.7ft swell and a period of only 4 seconds – that’s pure wind chop, not worth paddling out for. The 9th of August offers the biggest swell of the entire forecast at a whopping 1.0ft, with a period of 4 seconds from the east. You could get a knee-high wave if you’re really lucky, but the wind is onshore in the afternoon, messing it up. The energy is still weak, with values of 4.
The rest of the run from the 10th of August onwards is completely blank. There’s literally zero combined energy, no swell height, and nothing but glassy or light wind conditions. It’s a total dead zone. For Fuengirola, a blank run like this is more normal for this time of year, so don’t be too shocked. It’s a beach setup, and with no swell, even the kite crew would be sitting this one out.
There are no standouts here. The best you can hope for is a tiny, weak wave on the morning of the 9th of August, but even that’s a stretch. Honestly, save your energy and wait for a better forecast.
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.
