The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it.
Honestly, mate, it’s a rough stretch ahead for Mutriku. We’re looking at a pretty flat, quiet run for the next two weeks with hardly anything worth paddling out for. The only real glimmer shows up right at the very end, on Sunday the 16th of August, but even that’s a borderline call.
The water temp is sitting at 75°F right now, which is a solid 5°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, so the water’s gonna feel like a warm bath.
The first recommendation doesn’t come until the morning of Sunday the 16th of August. That’s a solid gap of 15 days with nothing worth riding. On that morning, we finally see a pulse of energy from the NNW, with a swell height of 4ft, a period of 7 seconds, and a combined energy of 178 (moderate wave energy). That’s the biggest we get all window. The wind is glassy out of the NNW, which is a massive positive – it’ll be clean, with no chop. The swell is coming from the NNW, but Mutriku is a sheltered reef that likes a NW direction, so this isn’t hitting its sweet spot. Still, with glassy conditions and a bit of size, it’s the only session that’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. This is a beginner-friendly reef, but it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting for sets. Crowds are possible here.
The afternoon of the 16th sees the swell drop a little to 4ft, but the wind swings onshore from the north at 9 mph, making it choppy and messy. Not worth it.
For the rest of the 16 days, the swell is tiny, mostly under 2ft to 3ft, with weak energy (mostly two-digit values like 21 to 123), and the wind is often onshore, cross-onshore, or just bad. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, to be honest. There’s nothing else to chase.

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.
