The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for Mutriku.
The next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag, but don't go putting your boards away just yet. The real problem isn't the size of the swell, but the wind. We've got a whole lot of days with wind ruining what could be perfectly good waves. There's a big blank run right at the start, with nothing worthwhile until we get past this weekend.
Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd are a write-off. Tiny swell, poor conditions. Not worth the paddle.
Friday the 24th morning is glassy but the swell is tiny, only 2ft from the NNW. The afternoon sees a jump in wind from the NW at 12 mph, creating a messy cross-shore chop. Forget it.
Now, Saturday the 25th is interesting but not for paddle surfing. We've got a serious pulse of energy coming in – combined energy of all swells directed here is 372. The swell hits 7ft on Saturday morning from the WNW, but with 12 mph cross-offshore wind, the surface is clean. The problem? By the afternoon that wind cranks up to 18 mph from the WNW, making it a lumpy cross-shore mess. With that size and wind, this exposed setup is more for the kite crew than a traditional surf session.
Sunday the 26th has similar issues. The swell drops back to 4ft in the morning but the cross-shore wind is still there. It's not great.
Finally, we see a glimmer of hope. On Monday the 27th of July, the morning is still messy with cross-onshore wind, but by the afternoon the wind goes glassy and we get a clean window. The swell is a solid 5ft from the NW with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is 334. This is the standout of the whole outlook. The reef at Mutriku will be working with a decent, longer-period NW groundswell and glassy conditions. This is as good as it gets in this forecast. Get out there Monday afternoon if you can.
Tuesday the 28th the wind goes bad again, and it stays mostly poor through to the end of the run. We get scattered moments of glassy conditions on the 29th, 31st, and the 3rd of August, but the swell is too small and weak to make anything of it. The weekend of the 1st and 2nd of August sees some waist-high swell but the winds are just not cooperating.
So, to sum it up: sit tight through the windy junk, and make your move for Monday the 27th afternoon. After that, you're waiting on a better forecast.
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.
