The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Mutriku in feet and degrees.
Water temp is normal for this time of year, nothing crazy. The real story is Monday morning, July 27th. That’s the one session to lock in. You’ve got a clean 5ft swell out of the northwest, with a period of 11 seconds – that’s genuine groundswell, plenty of energy and shape. Combined energy is 496 (moderate wave energy). Wind is glassy and offshore out of the northwest, so expect smooth, clean walls. Mutriku is a reef break, and that longer period will suit it perfectly, giving you well-defined lines. It’s an inconsistent spot, so this window is the main event. The swell direction matches the optimum NW direction for this break. Crowds are possible but not automatic.
From Monday afternoon, it’s a quick downhill slide. Winds switch to onshore or cross-onshore, swell drops to around 3ft or less, and periods get shorter. Wednesday morning July 29th has a 3ft swell with 9-second period, but combined energy is only 159 (weak), and it’s described as surfable but ordinary. After that, it’s a long flat spell. From Thursday July 30th all the way through to Tuesday August 11th, the swell is tiny – 1ft to 3ft – with mostly short-period, weak energy. Combined energy drops as low as 9 (weak) on August 8th. Many mornings are glassy, but there’s simply no swell to ride. It’s a long, quiet stretch.
You might get a little tickle on Wednesday August 5th morning with glassy conditions on a 2ft, 9-second swell – combined energy 50 (weak). That’s more of a float than a surf. And August 10th morning shows a 3ft NNW swell with 8 seconds and 143 combined energy – still small.
Bottom line: the only real shot is Monday morning July 27th at Mutriku with that 5ft, long-period NW groundswell under glass. Everything after that is a waiting game.
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.
