The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Mutriku over the next couple of weeks.
The coming days have a bit of a mixed bag. There’s a window of decent surf this weekend that’s worth paddling out for, but after that it gets quiet and we’re looking at a long stretch of small, ordinary conditions. The water temperature is right about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The standout is Saturday the 29th of August. The morning is looking prime at Mutriku – a glassy 6ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 9 seconds. Combined wave energy is moderate at 450. The wind is a light SSW, glassy, so the surface will be clean as a whistle. This is the best of the lot, perfect for getting into the rhythm of the reef. Be aware the break can be inconsistent and crowds are sometimes an issue, so pick your spot.
Sunday the 30th of August morning is also a strong option. A slightly smaller 5ft swell out of the NW with a 10-second period, and flat calm glassy conditions. Combined energy is a touch stronger at 469. This one is clean and inviting, but by the afternoon the wind swings onshore and it gets messy.
Monday the 31st of August morning is marginal – 5ft NW swell at 10 seconds, but a light cross-onshore wind keeps it from being perfect. Combined energy is 486. Not a write-off, but nothing special.
From Tuesday the 1st of September through to the end of the first week, the surf really drops off. Tuesday morning sees 4ft and glassy conditions, but the energy is weak at 296. After that it just fades into tiny, weak surf with occasional onshore wind, and nothing worth chasing until the next weekend.
A bit of a glimmer shows up on Sunday the 6th of September morning. Mutriku gets a 5ft NW swell with a longer 12-second period, glassy wind from the ESE, and combined energy of 539 – it’s moderate but feels promising. The longer period means better-shaped waves, but remember at a reef break it can line up really well. This is the closest thing to a second standout, but since it’s over a week out, treat it as promising rather than locked in.
After that, the second week is mostly small, weak, or onshore. Wednesday the 9th of September morning has a bigger 7ft NW swell, but it’s cross-onshore and marginal, with energy at 990. That one’s borderline too big for beginners and the wind isn’t doing any favours – it could be a bit of a battle. After that, the swell drops back to below 3ft and the winds stay messy or offshore-light. Not much to get excited about.
Overall, the real call is Saturday and Sunday mornings this weekend. Get out there and enjoy the glass.

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.
Mutriku is 16 km (10 miles) from Eibar. If you plan a holiday in Pais Vasco, look for hotels and other accommodation in Eibar. Eibar has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
