The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty flat spell ahead. Right now, and for the next sixteen days, there’s just nothing doing for a paddle surfer. The combined swell energy is sitting at 0 for most of the period, and what little swell tries to show up barely registers. The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s stirring.
We’ve got a lot of glassy mornings locally here at Vilassar de Mar, which is a crying shame because there’s no swell to clean up. Wednesday morning the 5th is dead flat with a glassy offshore from the NW, but the energy is zero. Thursday morning the 6th is the same story – perfect glass, no surf. The weekend of the 7th and 8th offers a few tiny pulses of 1.0 ft to 1 ft from the SW and SSW, but with periods of only 3 seconds, it’s just wind slop. The combined energy on those days is still only 1 to 3, so we’re talking about barely a ripple.
Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th bring our best shot, and it’s still a humble one. A small 1 ft swell from the SSE and SE, period up to 5 seconds, and combined energy bumping to 8 and 7 respectively. Those mornings are glassy and calm, so the surface will look pretty. But for a beginner-friendly spot that’s inconsistent, this is still not worth a run. The swell is too weak and short-period to shape up.
From the 12th onward, it’s back to flat or near-flat conditions. A few 0.7 ft and 0.3 ft pulses pop up here and there, but the energy never climbs above 8, and the wind swings around onshore for most afternoons, chopping up any hope. The morning of Monday the 17th sees a light offshore breeze from the NNW with a 1 ft ENE swell, but again, the period is only 3 seconds, so it’s a messy, short-period bump.
There’s a gap of several days here with no real recommendation. Essentially, from now through the 20th of August, it’s a flat run. The only consolation is that this spot is inconsistent, so a blank run like this is more normal than a surprise. It tends not to stay poor for a long time, but forecasts can change. For now, leave the board at home.

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