The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, checking in with the local outlook for Mutriku.

Let's get straight to it. We've got some fun surf coming up, but it's a bit of a mixed bag. The standout is going to be Mutriku itself, a sheltered reef break that really needs a clean window to shine. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a solid 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – you’re not going to need a thick suit, that’s for sure. The swell energy is looking moderate, with the combined energy hitting 450, and it's coming from the WNW.

The best bet is Saturday morning, August 29th. The swell is a clean 6ft from the WNW at 9 seconds, and the wind is glassy from the SSW. This is the one to circle. The waves should be holding shape, and with that light wind, it'll be smooth. It's an inconsistent spot, so you might have to wait for the sets, but when they come, it'll be worth it. It’s a beginner-friendly break, so the crowd might pop up, but it's worth the paddle.

Sunday morning, August 30th, is another glassy one with the wind dropping to nothing, and the swell is a little smaller at 5ft from the NW. The energy is still decent at 334, but the waves are just "surfable" – not the same punch as Saturday. Monday morning, August 31st, looks promising again with 5ft from the NW and glassy conditions. The energy bumps back up to 466, so this is another solid session.

After that, the surf tapers off. By Tuesday morning, September 1st, we’re down to 4ft, and then it really drops. From Wednesday, September 2nd, right through to the end of the first week, we’re looking at small, weak surf with poor conditions. The swell energy drops to 86 or less, and the wind is all over the place. Not worth a session.

Looking into the second week, there’s a glimmer. Saturday afternoon, September 5th, shows a pulse of longer period swell hitting 5ft from the NW, but with a 13-second period and onshore wind, it’s not going to be clean. The energy is high at 705, but the quality won't be there. Sunday morning, September 6th, is glassy but with only 4ft of swell. It’s a tease.

The rest of the week is more of the same – small, weak, and messy. The whole period from September 8th onwards is a write-off, with tiny waves and poor conditions. The swell direction swings to the NNE and N, and the period drops, leaving us with barely any energy. Not much to get excited about there.

So, to wrap it up: Saturday morning, August 29th is the clear winner. Monday morning, August 31st, is your second best bet. Everything else is either a gamble or a skip.

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.
