The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the Mutriku region over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a bit of a quiet spell for the reef at Mutriku. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty flat and underwhelming. Every single session is flagged as poor surf, with wave heights barely getting above 3 feet. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, which isn't helping things, though there are a few glassy moments to break up the monotony.
We start off with a real dud. Thursday the 16th through to Sunday the 21st is all tiny stuff. You're looking at knee-high waves at best, with swell energy between 17 and 128 - that's barely a ripple. The wind is a mix of light cross-onshore breezes and the odd glassy spell, like Saturday the 18th morning and Monday the 20th morning. But even with those clean conditions, the swell is just too small and weak to get excited about.
The best of a bad bunch comes around Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th. The swell ticks up a little, with heights around 3 ft to 5 ft and the energy climbs into the hundreds (242 to 309). The swell direction swings more west-northwest, which is a decent angle for the reef. But the wind is still cross-onshore, which will mess up the face. The period on the 29th is 8-9 seconds, so it's not the most powerful stuff either. It's the most surfable window, but that's not saying much.
Given the tiny, weak, and often messy surf, Mutriku is really not offering any sort of quality option for the next 16 days. It's a long stretch of nothing. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, feeling like a normal July. If you're desperate for a paddle, maybe the glassy mornings on the 20th or 24th will give you a few close-outs, but don't hold your breath.
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.
