The Lowdown

There’s a big flat spell on the go – nothing surfable from now until late September. The Box shows zero energy for days on end, just 0.1m wind slop out of the NE at 4-6 seconds. Some mornings are glassy, but it’s completely gutless. Not worth getting wet.

Then on the 29th of September, a small pulse shows up. Tuesday morning has 1.1m from the NNE at 5 seconds – short period, so it’s disorganised and soft. The offshore is clean though, which is a bonus, and the water’s 26°, a touch warmer than usual. Afternoon drops back to 0.7m, wind light cross-shore, nothing exciting. Wave energy is weak – 55 in the morning, 41 in the afternoon – so it’s still ankle-biter territory. The Box (The-Box_2) is a beach and reef set-up, and with this short-period stuff, it’ll be closing out and mush. Not a good day for beginners – though 1.1m is just under the “too big for beginners” mark – but honestly, it’s still below fun size for anyone.

No real standout in this 16-day run. The only slim chance is that Tuesday morning dawn patrol if you’re desperate for a splash. But don’t expect anything memorable – this is more about getting the wetsuit wet than scoring waves. Keep the board in the car and stay patient.

Information about the The Box Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for The Box provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at The Box can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our The Box 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 (The Box) 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 The Box 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.

The Box is 4 km (2 miles) from Javea. If you plan a holiday in Valencia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Javea. Javea has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
