Rusty here again. Let’s break down the next two weeks at Playa de Arrigunaga.
The first few days are a bit of a bust. Tiny, weak waves with no real push. The water temp is sitting at a very warm 72°F, which is way above the average for this time of year.
Monday the 13th of July finally gives us something. The morning brings 0.9m (3 ft) NW swell, but the real draw is the glassy wind. It’s clean, rideable, and the energy is moderate at 118. Not a world-beater, but a good session. The true highlight is Friday the 17th of July. That morning we get a solid 1.3m (4 ft) swell from the NW, with the combined swell energy hitting 249 – the best in the whole 16-day window. Glassy winds will make it clean and lined up. That’s the session you want to circle on the calendar. Saturday the 18th of July also offers a clean 1.0m (3 ft) NW swell with light cross-shore winds, so it’s a good backup option.
This is a sandbar break, fairly exposed to the NW, and aimed at intermediate surfers. Expect company – it gets crowded on the good days. The swell direction from the NW matches what this spot wants to see.
Rusty out.

A general guide to surfing at Playa de Arrigunaga can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Playa de Arrigunaga 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.
