The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, and I’m reading the tea leaves for Mutriku. It’s gonna be a tough stretch for the next couple of weeks. The surf is mostly absent, and we’re looking at a long, flat spell before anything even hints at life. It’s a reef, so it’s got the bones, but it needs some juice.

Right now and for the next few days, it’s a total bust. The swell is tiny, around 1ft to 2ft, with periods that are all over the map. The combined wave energy is weak, mostly in the 40s and 70s, and the conditions are called “poor” across the board. You’ll see some glassy mornings, which is a real treat for the eyes, but there’s no power in the water. You’ll be floating on a mirror.

This dry run stretches all the way through the 23rd of August. There’s a little bump in energy on the 15th and 16th, with combined energy hitting 113 and 153, but the swell is still under 3ft and the period is short at 7 seconds. Not enough to get the heart pumping. The wind on the 15th and 17th is a light cross-onshore, just adding a little wrinkle to the surface.

The one day that stands out in this whole 16-day window is Monday the 24th of August. The morning shows a real change. The swell jumps to 5ft from the NW with a 10-second period. The combined wave energy is a much stronger 469, which is a proper, powerful pulse. The wind is a light cross-onshore, but the forecast says “marginal,” so it’s not a clean, perfect setup. The afternoon drops a little to 5ft, but still carries 373 energy. This is the only day that looks like it might offer a real wave, but it’s not a lock for beginners as the size is pushing into more challenging territory.

Because the reef is inconsistent and sheltered, it needs a decent swell to really wake up. The optimum swell direction is from the NW, which is exactly what we get on the 24th, so the shape should be there. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 75° with a 4° anomaly, which is a nice surprise.

The 25th sees the swell dropping back to 4ft, and the energy fades to 186. That’s the end of the lone pulse. So, if you’re itching, keep an eye on the 24th of August, but don’t bet the house on it. For now, it’s mostly 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.
