The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break this down for you.
First thing: the next week and a half is a real bummer. From Saturday the 18th right through to Monday morning the 27th, it’s flat and messy. Tiny waves, 0.7ft to 5ft, with short periods of 6 to 8 seconds, and mostly cross-on or onshore winds. The energy is weak (combined energy values between 10 and 173). There’s a couple of glassy mornings on the 19th and 23rd at Mutriku (a reef break, sheltered, inconsistent, and crowds are possible), but with only 0.7ft to 2ft of swell, it’s not worth a paddle.
Then Monday morning the 27th of July, we get a little pulse. The swell hits 4ft from the NW with a 10-second period, combined energy of 335 – that’s moderate. The wind is glassy, so the surface will be clean. The water is 77°F, which is 7° warmer than normal – very unusual, so it’s a warm one. The waves are surfable, but it’s still just ordinary.
The real standout hits Friday morning the 31st of July. Mutriku gets a 5ft swell from the NNW, 9-second period, combined energy of 450 – solid, moderate wave energy. The wind is glassy, so it’ll be clean. That’s the best of the whole forecast. The afternoon gets a little bigger at 6ft, but the wind goes onshore, so the morning is the window.
Saturday the 1st of August morning is also a good one – 5ft from the NW, 10-second period, combined energy of 513, and dead calm wind. Glassy perfection.
So, the first week is a total washout. The second week has a couple of clean, decent windows, but nothing massive. The 31st morning and the 1st morning are your only real chances. Don’t waste your energy before that.
Rusty.

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