The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Mutriku's got cookin' over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a slow starter, but there are some windows that’ll get the blood pumping.
First up, we've got a bit of a flat spell to kick things off. Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th are pretty much a write-off with tiny, weak swell and poor conditions. You're better off stayin' on land.
Things start to get interesting on the Sunday morning (September 13th). We’re looking at a clean 4ft groundswell from the NW, with a nice long 13-second period and glassy conditions. The water's sitting at 73°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year – a real treat. The wave energy is strong (540), so there's plenty of push. This is a standout session for the patient surfer, but keep in mind Mutriku is a sheltered reef that’s inconsistent, so you’ll need to wait for your sets.
The following week is a bit of a mixed bag with onshore winds messing things up, but we get another good look on Tuesday morning the 22nd. That morning brings a 5ft NW groundswell (13 secs) with glassy conditions. The energy is very strong (806), and it should be clean and fun for those who can sit and wait.
Wednesday morning the 23rd and Thursday morning the 24th also offer clean conditions with a 4-4ft NW swell and light offshore breezes. The energy is solid and it’s surfable, though nothing to call home about compared to the standouts.
Overall, the two clear winners here are the Sunday morning (September 13th) and Tuesday morning (September 22nd). Both offer the best combo of clean, glassy conditions and decent sized, long-period NW groundswell. Get out there when it's glassy and you'll be rewarded.
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.
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.
