The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty talkin’. Let’s be straight with you: the outlook for Mundaka over the next 16 days is a tough one. We’ve got a long stretch of poor surf conditions, with the wind and swell almost never lining up. The water is sitting at 76°F, which is a whopping 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a proper anomaly, feels like a warm bath out there.
The first real shot at anything surfable doesn’t come until Wednesday morning, the 29th of July. The swell is small, only 3ft from the NW with a period of 9 seconds, but the wind is glassy. That’s the key. It’ll be clean, but the energy is weak (143). It’s a marginal session, and you’ll be scratching for waves, but at least you won’t be fighting the wind.
After that, it’s a grim run of cross-onshore winds and lumpy, choppy conditions through to the end of the month. The swell picks up a bit on the 25th and 26th, hitting 8ft, but the wind is howling from the WNW at 25 mph, making it a total mess. That’s kite-surfing territory, not for a paddle.
The next window that catches the eye is Sunday morning, the 2nd of August. Again, it’s a glassy morning with a 3ft WNW swell at 10 seconds. The energy is still low (120), but it’s clean. Then Monday morning, the 3rd of August, repeats the trick: 3ft NW swell, glassy winds, energy of 115. These are your best bets, but they are for the patient surfer looking for a clean, small wave.
The rest of the first week of August is a mix of cross-shore winds and very weak swell. The long-period 12-second swell on the 1st of August is a tease, but it’s only 2ft and the wind is cross-on. It’s not going to do anything.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. The two glassy mornings on the 2nd and 3rd of August are the pick of a very poor bunch. If you have to go, pick those mornings, but don’t expect much.
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.
