Table - best surf conditions forecast for Playa de la Cagonera over the next 16 days.
Hey guys, Rusty here again. Playa de la Cagonera – I’ll level with you: the next 16 days are a bust for surf. From Friday July 10 through Saturday July 25, it’s almost all “poor surf conditions” in the data. Only one morning on Thursday July 23 shows “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and even that barely gets a 1 out of 10. So no good options in this whole window.
The break is usually fairly consistent, sheltered, and likes NW swell. But what we’ve got is tiny NW swell – 0.7ft to 5ft at best – with short periods, mostly under 10 seconds and as low as 4-5 seconds. Combined energy maxes out at 340 (moderate) on July 25 morning, but conditions are still poor. Winds are light but generally cross, cross‑onshore, or onshore – not the clean offshore we want. A few glassy spells on July 14 and 15 mornings, but with swell only 0.7ft to 1ft, it’s barely a ripple.
Water temp on July 10 morning is 68°F, which is about 2°F warmer than usual – a touch warmer than average. Nice for a dip, but nothing to surf.
Crowds can show up sometimes, but with this lack of waves, you’ll have the place to yourself. When swell hits 5ft on July 25, it’s still messy and onshore‑ish. For most of the period, it’s flat and frustrating.
Just a dry spell. The area can go quiet, and this is one of those times. Forecasts might change, but right now? Leave the boards home. Take a walk.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Playa de la Cagonera 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 la Cagonera 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.
