The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown on Jameos del Agua (Spain). And I’ve got to level with you—this 16-day stretch is a total bust. There’s not a single session in the whole window that’s worth your time. The forecast screams "poor surf conditions" from start to finish, so don’t get your hopes up.
The wind is the killer. It’s stuck out of the NNE, blowing cross or cross-on at 15 to 25 mph for nearly the whole forecast. That’s wrecking any chance of clean waves. Sure, the swell does build—by Friday, July 17th, we’re seeing 6 ft from the NE with combined energy in the 300s and 400s (moderate wave energy)—but it’s all junk. Periods are only 6 to 8 seconds, so it’s short-period windswell, not anything with real push. In these winds, it’s just a choppy mess.
By July 22nd, the swell cranks up over 7 ft from the NNE, with energy hitting the 500s (strong wave energy). That’s big enough for experts only at this reef, but the wind is still ripping at 22 mph cross-shore. It’ll be lumpy, messy, and honestly, this setup looks more fun for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Even toward the end, around July 28th, the swell drops off, but the wind stays nasty with gusts up to 25 mph. Water temp is 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the season, but that’s the only highlight, and it doesn’t fix the surf.
No standout sessions, no hidden gem. The reef is fairly consistent and fairly exposed to the north-northeast, but with the wind so wrong the whole time, it’s just one long, empty gap. This kind of blank run happens here sometimes. Keep an eye out, forecasts can turn, but for now, save the gas.
Rusty.
