Table - best surf conditions forecast for Playa de Ereaga over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s get real. I’ve looked at Playa de Ereaga, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. This spot is sheltered and rarely breaks, so we’re in for a long, quiet run for nearly two weeks. The first hint of anything happening doesn’t show up until Thursday, the 23rd of July, and even then it’s a struggle.
From now through the 22nd, it’s pretty much all poor. You’ll see tiny bumps with combined swell energy barely reaching 100 (87), and most days the wind is onshore or cross-onshore. There’s a glassy window on the morning of the 13th with a 4ft northwest swell, but the period is short at 7 seconds and the energy is only moderate (105). It’s surfable but not gonna get anyone excited. Another glassy morning on the 14th and 15th, but the swell drops away to nothing.
There’s a long gap with no recommendations, about 12 days of mostly flat or junk conditions. Then on Thursday the 23rd of July, things start to stir. We get a 5ft northwest swell with a 7-second period and combined energy of 288 – still moderate, but the wind is a light cross-onshore. It’s still rated as poor surf.
The first real standout comes on Friday the 24th of July. The morning is looking like your best bet. A light offshore breeze from the ESE is blowing, cleaning up a 3ft northwest swell, with an 8-second period. The energy is moderate (129) but the clean conditions will make it feel better than the numbers suggest. Crowds are possible here, and the wave quality is just “ordinary” but it’s the best we’ve got in this stretch.
Then, Saturday the 25th of July morning is a big one, but with a big caveat. The swell jumps to 8ft from the NNW with a long 12-second period, and the combined energy is pumping: 1743. That’s strong wave energy. However, the wind is cross-onshore from the WNW. The swell is too big for beginners, and the long period and beach setup at Ereaga mean it’ll be breaking pretty straight. This is more of a looker for experts, and even then, the onshore wind will make it lumpy. If you’re a strong surfer and don’t mind some chop, it’s the only day with real push, but it’s not a clean gem.
Overall, the water temp is average for the time of year here. Keep an eye on that Friday and Saturday, but don’t expect perfection.

Information about the Playa de Ereaga Surf forecast

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. 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.
