The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down.
We’re talking about Playa de Ereaga. This is a sheltered beginner spot, but it rarely breaks, so we need the right setup. The water is 72°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The first real shot is Sunday, September 6th, in the morning. We’ve got a 5ft swell from the NNW with a 12-second period moving in. The combined energy is 524 (moderate), and the wind is glassy out of the NW – perfect clean conditions. This is the standout for the early part of the run. The swell direction is a bit off the optimum NW, but it’s still good. Expect crowds, though, because they’re often here.
That afternoon, the wind turns onshore from the NW at 9 mph, and the surf goes poor.
Monday the 7th is a dud. Morning has a tiny 2ft groundswell from the NW, 15-second period, glassy, but it’s too small. Afternoon is cross-on and messy.
Tuesday the 8th is flat and onshore. Wednesday the 9th sees a 6ft NW wind swell, but it’s a short 8-second period, onshore wind at 9 mph, and energy at 467. It’s strong but poor quality. More of a kite day than a surf day.
Thursday the 10th morning goes glassy with a 4ft NNW swell, 10-second period, and energy at 351. It’s surfable, but just ordinary.
Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th are tiny, with energy dropping to 73 on Saturday. Big gap in quality.
Sunday the 13th morning is a tease: 3ft, 13-second period from the NNW, glassy, energy at 288. Small but clean.
The next real standout is Thursday, September 17th, in the morning. That’s your second-week highlight. We’ve got a 5ft swell from the NW, 10-second period, 450 energy (moderate), and dead calm wind – glassy perfection. The wave comment says “expect good surf conditions.” It’s a long way off, but it’s promising.
The rest of the run into September 21st is small, with 3ft to 3ft waves, and while many mornings are glassy, the energy is weak and the surf is ordinary. The 20th and 21st have some glassy mornings with 3ft, but it’s really just tiny stuff.
So, lean pickings for 16 days. Sunday the 6th morning and Thursday the 17th morning are your only two real standouts. The rest is blown-out or flat.
Rusty.

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 Ereaga 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.
