The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the surf outlook for Playa de Robayera over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. There’s swell coming, but a lot of it is going to be messy and not worth the paddle. The next few days are small and junky, but there are a couple of clean windows, and one standout at the end that’s got my attention.

The first few days are pretty bleak. Tuesday the 18th and Wednesday the 19th are tiny, with waves under 2 feet, and the wind is mostly side-shore or onshore, making it lumpy. The energy is weak (60 to 13), so there’s not much to get excited about.

Things start to pick up a touch on Thursday the 20th. The swell bumps up to just over 4 feet from the NW with a longer 11-second period, and the energy jumps to a moderate 303. But the wind is still messing it up, so despite the better-looking swell, it’s marginal at best.

Friday the 21st is where it gets interesting. The swell builds to a solid 5 feet from the NW with a 10-second period, and the energy is pumping at 598. The morning is let down by cross-onshore wind and rain, but the afternoon... that’s a gem. The wind drops out to glassy and the forecast calls it “expect good surf conditions.” That Friday afternoon could be a proper session, with chest to head-high waves. This is the first solid option on offer.

The weekend is frustrating. Saturday the 22nd sees the swell drop back to under 3 feet, and while the morning is clean with a cross-off breeze, the afternoon gets ruined by a strong onshore wind at 25 km/h. Sunday is similar, with smaller, weaker swell and shifting winds.

The start of next week is a write-off. Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th are poor, with stormy weather and small, wind-blown waves. There’s a gap of a few days here where the surf just isn’t happening.

The next little window looks like Thursday morning, the 27th of August. The swell is small at just over 2 feet, but the period jumps back up to 11 seconds, and it’s a glassy morning with a NW swell. Could be a clean, if small, option for the log.

The end of the run is the real standout. The first two days of September look promising, but it’s the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September that’s the gem. We’re looking at a solid 8 feet of NW swell with a very long 13-second period, and the energy reading is a massive 1645. That’s some serious groundswell. The wind is light and glassy, so it should be absolutely firing. This is one for the experienced crew only, though. With waves over 8 feet on the face, it will be too big and powerful for beginners. For the experts, this has the makings of a proper day. It’s a long way out, so don’t bank on it just yet, but it’s the one to get excited about.

So, to sum it up: don’t get your hopes up for the next week, but there are a couple of windows of clean surf, and that Wednesday the 2nd looks like it could be something special.

Rusty out.

Information about the Playa de Robayera Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Playa de Robayera provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Playa de Robayera 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 Robayera 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.
