The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are going to test your patience. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, weak, and mostly un-ridable conditions. If you’re jonesing for a wave, you might wanna pick up a new hobby for a bit.
The first real sign of life doesn’t show up until Monday, September 21st. And even then, it’s pretty marginal. For the ten days before that, we’re dealing with a whole lot of nothing. The swell energy is in the single digits or just plain zero. There’s a slight bump Thursday the 17th in the afternoon, but it’s 2ft of short-period, onshore slop that ain’t worth your time. The mornings are glassy, but with nothing behind them, they’re just pretty windows looking out at a flat ocean.
So, about that Monday the 21st. We finally see the energy tick up. The combined swell energy hits 61, which is still weak, but it’s the best we’ve got. La Marina (Spain) will be seeing some waist-high lines from the ENE, pushing 3ft with a 5-second period. It’s not going to win any awards. The morning wind is a light cross-offshore from the N at 6 mph, which will keep the surface clean. But don’t get too excited – this is a reef break that’s already inconsistent, and this small, short-period stuff isn’t going to have much push. The water temp is a balmy 81°, which is far warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a wetsuit.
The pattern after that single blip is more of the same. Tuesday the 22nd and Wednesday the 23rd are back to zero energy. There’s a tiny pulse on the morning of Saturday the 26th, but it’s only 0.7ft with a 4-second period, and the energy reading is a pitiful 2. Onshore afternoon winds will chop up whatever might try to form.
Honestly, for the whole 16-day run, the pickings are slim. The only day that even gets a nod from me is the morning of the 21st. It’s not good, but it’s the only thing that’s even remotely surfable. For everything else, you’re better off waiting for a better forecast. It’s a tough stretch, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.
Rusty, out.

Information about the La Marina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Marina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Marina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Marina 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 (La Marina) 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 La Marina 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.
