The Lowdown

Alright, let's get into it. Looks like we've got a bit of a slow cooker of a forecast here for Mutriku.

The water is sitting at a warm 73°F, which is a solid 5° warmer than usual for this time of year, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home for sure.

We start off on Saturday the 12th with clean, glassy conditions but only a tiny 2 ft WNW swell, and it's just not got the juice (45 – weak energy). That's a skip day. The poor surf score is a dead giveaway.

Sunday the 13th is where we actually get a pulse. The morning glass-off is perfect, and we see a cleaner 4 ft NW groundswell with a solid 13-second period (540 – moderate energy). That's a proper little window, but the tide might mess with the reef, so keep that in mind. The wind stays offshore through the afternoon too, which is a bonus.

The midweek, from Monday the 14th through to Thursday the 17th, is messy. The swell sticks around but the winds turn cross and cross-onshore, chopping it up. Not worth paddling out for a session unless you're desperate.

We get a bit of a reprieve on Friday the 18th morning with clean, glassy 3 ft waves, but it's pretty ordinary. Not a standout, just a surfable option.

Now, the real standout is Saturday the 19th of September. That morning looks absolute money. You've got a clean 7 ft NW swell, ripping with a 13-second period and very strong energy (1306). That's a big number for Mutriku. The water's glassy with a light offshore breeze from the ENE. This is a solid groundswell hitting the optimum NW direction, so it'll set up nicely on the reef. At 7 ft, it's pushing into bigger territory, better suited to experienced surfers. The crowds can be *sometimes* a factor here, but with this kind of quality, expect a few others in the lineup.

After that, the pattern starts to fade. Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st still have clean mornings and decent 4 ft to 6 ft NW swell, but the energy is backing off. Still fun, still glassy, but not the same as Saturday.

By Tuesday the 22nd and through the rest of the week, the swell drops and the conditions become pretty average, with just small, weak surf and a lot of crossshore winds. Nothing to get excited about.

So, if you've got a window, aim for that Saturday the 19th morning. It's the clear winner of this 16-day run. The Sunday the 13th morning is a solid backup option for a cleaner, smaller session.

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.
