The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what we’re looking at for Mundaka.

First few days are a total dud—tiny, weak, and pretty messy. It’s not really doing anything until the morning of Thursday the 29th of August. That morning gives you a small 4ft swell from the NW, but at least it’s glassy. It’s just barely surfable.

The real standout is Sunday the 30th of August in the morning. The swell hits about 5ft from the NW, with a period of 11 seconds—that’s good groundswell. The wind is flat calm, so expect glassy, clean conditions and waves with proper shape for the point. Water temp is 76°, running much warmer than normal for this time of year.

Monday the 31st of August morning is also a winner: nearly 5ft of clean NW swell with a 9-second period and glassy winds. It’s not as long a period as Sunday, but still quality. These two mornings are your peak—after that, the afternoons turn to junk and the following week fades into small, chopped-up, short-period leftovers.

You’ll see a little bump of 3ft on the morning of September 6th with a solid 11-second period, but that’s about it for the rest of the run. Mostly small and poor after the 31st.

Stick to that last weekend of August: Sunday the 30th and Monday the 31st mornings. Wind stays light, shape is there. After that, it’s a long stretch of ordinary.

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.
