The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Mutriku.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We're stuck in a pattern of tiny, weak swell. The surf just isn't going to be worth paddling out for. The pattern is one of very small, short-period windswell and poor surf conditions across the board. There is a long stretch from now until about the 20th of August where the waves are just too small and weak to get excited about. The combined energy is mostly in the double digits or low triple digits, which is weak energy, and the wave heights rarely get above 3 ft.
The only real standout, and I'm calling it from the 20th of August, is a slight bump in the ocean. On Thursday the 20th, the afternoon shows a pulse of 2 ft from the NW with a period of 10 seconds, pushing the combined energy to 113. That's still weak, but it's the most energy we see. The wind is from the NNE at 5 mph, putting it onshore, but it's a light breeze. The water temperature is about 75°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.
For the rest of the window, we're looking at waves so small they're barely a ripple, with a lot of glassy mornings but no size to back them up. The odd morning, like Friday the 7th, might be glassy, but with a 2 ft, 7-second swell, it's just not going to have any push. The best advice is to leave the boards at home for a while. If the wind picks up and the onshore conditions get choppy, this setup might be more interesting for the kite surfers than for us.
Stay patient, lads. Good things come to those who wait.
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.
