The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
It's a bit of a slow start for Mundaka, folks. For the first few days, we're dealing with a lot of cross and cross-onshore winds that are just chopping up what little swell there is. The water is a balmy 76.3°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year—a solid 6.5°F above average, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home.
The real standout is now a week away, on Saturday morning, the 1st of August. We've got a 3 ft swell from the northwest, but the kicker is the period—a very long 14 seconds. That's proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is a solid 417 (moderate), and what makes this special is the wind: light cross-offshore from the southeast, keeping it clean. For a spot like a river mouth, that long period will wrap in nicely, but remember, it's an expert wave for a reason. The morning is the window, as the afternoon gets wrecked by a fresh 30 km/h (18.6 mph) cross-onshore.
The next morning, Sunday the 2nd of August, has a little bit of size (3.6 ft, 11-second period, 276 energy) but it's cross-onshore again, so not the same quality. After that, the outlook fades into a series of small, choppy or cross-shore days with poor conditions right through until the 8th of August. The 7th of August has a glassy start, but with a tiny 2.3 ft swell, it's not really worth the drive.
Overall, the best bet is that Saturday morning, the 1st of August. It's a long way out, so don't book the van yet, but it's the only window that looks like it will deliver that classic Mundaka wall.

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