Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. It’s Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the forecast for Mundaka over the next 16 days is a tough one to swallow. The swell energy is weak to moderate at best, and the conditions are a mess of cross-shore and cross-onshore winds. There's not a single standout session that I’d tell you to put your life on hold for, but there are a couple of windows where you might squeeze a few if you’re desperate.
We kick off on Friday morning, July 3rd. Swell is a tiny 3 ft from the NW, with a period of 12 seconds. The combined energy is 224 (moderate), but the wind is a cross-shore from the west at 6 mph, and the notes say "poor surf conditions." The water temp is about average for this time of year.
The best of a bad bunch rolls in early Saturday morning, July 4th. It’s glassy, with a light offshore wind from the NE at 3 mph. Swell is 3 ft from the NW, period of 10 seconds, and energy is 173 (moderate). The notes say "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It’s not Mundaka firing, but if you want a clean paddle, this is your only real shot for the whole outlook. The break is consistent and fairly exposed to that NW swell, which is the optimal direction.
After that, it’s a long, grim stretch. From Saturday afternoon right through to Thursday July 16th, we’ve got wave heights mostly under 3 ft, periods dropping off, and messy winds. There is a brief moment on Wednesday morning, July 15th, with glassy conditions again and 2 ft from the NW (energy 117), but it’s still just "very ordinary."
Look, for the whole 16-day run, this is a classic Mundaka slump. It’s a river mouth break that needs size and direction to really work, and it’s just not getting it. If you’re a kite surfer, these choppy, cross-shore days might be your jam, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a near-blank period.
Stay patient. The forecasts can change, but for now, the only date I’d even consider is Saturday morning, July 4th. Even then, keep your expectations on the floor.
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.
