The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s coming for Mutriku. This is a sheltered reef setup that needs the right NW swell, and it’s a bit of a tease. For the first few days, it’s really just not happening. We’ve got a long wait ahead.

The forecast kicks off with a tiny, glassy 2ft swell from the WNW on Monday morning, but the wave energy is weak (280). It’s surfable but very ordinary. After that, we hit a dry spell. Monday afternoon through to the end of the week is mostly poor, with onshore winds, small swell, and low energy. The best of a bad lot is Thursday morning, October 10th, with a glassy 4ft NW swell (moderate energy at 362), but it’s still just surfable, nothing special. The next few days after that are mostly glassy but tiny, with energy dropping below 100. It’s a frustrating stretch.

Then, finally, we get a proper window. The real standout is Sunday morning, September 13th. The wind is glassy, the swell is a clean 4ft from the NW with a long period of 13 seconds, and the energy is strong (547). This is a groundswell, and at a reef like Mutriku, that long period should produce some nice, lined-up waves. It’s a bit inconsistent here, so don’t expect a non-stop party, but the quality is there. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

The next standout is the following morning, Monday, September 14th. Again, glassy conditions, a 5ft NW swell with a 12-second period, and strong energy (609). This is another excellent morning. The afternoon turns onshore, so make the most of the early session.

A week later, on Thursday morning, September 17th, we get a calm, glassy morning with a 5ft NW swell. That’s pushing into the size where it’s too much for beginners, but for the experienced crew, the energy is strong (520) and the conditions are clean. The next morning, Friday, September 18th, is also worth a mention – calm and glassy again with a 5ft NW swell (456 energy).

Later in the second week, Saturday afternoon, September 19th, offers a glassy 5ft NW swell (451 energy) with light rain, which could add a bit of texture. It’s a good option, but less certain this far out.

Essentially, the first week is a write-off. The best surf is the two mornings of Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th, with Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th as solid follow-ups. It’s a slow start, but when it comes, it comes clean.

Stay patient.

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.
