Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks here at Playa de Xago are looking pretty flat and, to be honest, mostly disappointing. We’ve got a real dry spell right through the coming week, with very little to get excited about. There’s going to be a gap of several days where the surf just isn’t worth paddling out for.

The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Sunday the 12th of July. That morning, we finally get a pulse of energy pushing in from the NNW, kicking up a 3ft swell. The period is short, around 8 seconds, so it’s not going to be the cleanest groundswell, but the wind is glassy – a light N breeze at 3 mph. That’s a major positive. The combined swell energy hits a solid 233 (moderate), and the water is a warm 68°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. For a spot that’s very consistent and exposed to the right swells, this is definitely the standout session of the whole outlook. Expect crowds to be likely here.

Before that, Monday the 6th of July morning offers a very average, small 2ft NW swell, but the conditions are clean and glassy with a light wind. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The combined energy is weak at 48.

We see another little pulse on Monday the 13th of July morning. A clean, 3ft swell from the N with glassy winds. The combined energy is moderate at 145, but the period is a short 7 seconds, so shape won’t be stellar. Not a standout, but a decent option for a paddle if you’re desperate.

After that, through the second week, we’re looking at mostly small, weak swells with periods under 10 seconds and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds. The 15th of July morning has a clean 4ft swell from the N with a 7-second period and moderate energy (162), but the offshore flow is light. It’s just another ordinary day. The 17th of July afternoon shows a jump in energy to 121, but it’s a 3ft WNW swell with a short 8-second period and onshore winds, making it a messy, choppy mess.

To be blunt, Sunday the 12th of July is the only true standout. If you’re looking for clean waves with a bit of push, that’s your window. The rest is a lot of flat spells and poor conditions. For beginners, that 3ft is fine, but don’t expect much else. For the experts, there’s nothing worth getting excited about.

Stay patient, check the charts, and I’ll catch you out there if it ever turns on.

Information about the Playa de Xago Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Playa de Xago 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 Xago can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Playa de Xago 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 (Playa de Xago) 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 Playa de Xago 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.

Playa de Xago is 5 km (3 miles) from Aviles. If you plan a holiday in Asturias, look for hotels and other accommodation in Aviles. Aviles has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
