Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's have a yarn about Mundaka. The word on the water is that this world-class river-mouth spot is in for a rough 16 days. The finder data shows there's almost nothing to ride, and the water’s sitting at 74°F, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year.
We start Monday, July 6th, with a tiny 2-foot NW swell. The wind is onshore and it's messy, so you can forget it. This is the same story all through the first week. The wind is mostly from the west or northwest, keeping the surface choppy. Those small swells, 1 to 2 feet, just don't have any energy behind them.
There is one single moment that looks slightly less terrible. Early on Sunday, July 12th, we get a clean 2-foot NW swell with a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSE. It's described as "surfable but very ordinary." It's small and only just okay, but it's the only window in a sea of bad.
After that, we're back to flatness and onshores. Swell heights stay at 1 to 3 feet, and the wind rarely gives us a break. By the weekend of July 18th, we're looking at strong onshores and rain. The whole second week is just more of the same nothingness. Honestly, for a spot like Mundaka, this is a long blank run. If you absolutely have to paddle, Sunday morning, July 12th, is the only option, but don't get your hopes up.
Rusty.

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.
Mundaka is 2 km (1 miles) from Bermeo. If you plan a holiday in Pais Vasco, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bermeo. Bermeo has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
