The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've had a good look at what's on offer for your local stretch. I've got to be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking flat and pretty grim for getting wet. The first recommendation for surf doesn't pop up until the very end of the window, so there's a long, quiet stretch ahead.
Right from the start, we've got nothing but zeros across the board. Sunday the 30th of August through to Friday the 4th of September, there's essentially no swell to speak of. The water is sitting at a balmy 82°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that won't do you any good with no waves.
The morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September was glassy and calm, but with zero swell, it's a perfect mirror. The same goes for Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th in the mornings – glassy conditions but no surf to speak of. You'd be better off having a swim.
We finally see a tiny pulse of energy on Friday the 4th of September in the afternoon, with a weak 1ft swell from the SSW, but it's a 3-second period. That's just wind chop, and combined energy of all swells is a measly 1 – it's not worth a paddle. The wind is a moderate cross-shore at 12 mph, making it choppy and messy.
The situation doesn't improve much. Saturday the 5th through to Monday the 7th of September remains flat, with the odd bit of clean cross-off wind on Monday morning from the WSW at 6 mph, but again, no swell.
The best of a bad bunch comes on Tuesday the 8th of September. The morning shows a small 1ft swell from the SE with a 4-second period and a combined energy of 5. The wind is clean cross-off from the WSW at 6 mph, so it will be tidy. The afternoon sees a slight bump to 2ft from the E, period still 4 seconds, and combined energy of 9, but the wind swings to a moderate cross-shore from the SSW at 12 mph, so it'll be choppy again. It's tiny, but it's the most we've seen.
After that, we slide back into tiny, weak swells and poor conditions. From Wednesday the 9th of September onwards, the swell hovers around 0.3ft to 0.7ft with periods of 3 to 6 seconds, and combined energy barely reaches 1 to 4. The winds are often onshore or cross-onshore, making it a write-off.
The only consistent break in the area is Vilassar de Mar, but it's rated as inconsistent and rarely delivers. For a beginner-friendly spot, this is a tough run. If you're desperate, the cleanest option is the morning of Tuesday the 8th of September (1ft, SE, 4s, combined energy 5), but honestly, it's flat. This is a classic "no surf" scenario – the guidance confirms there are no good surf options in the 16-day window. With such a small and inconsistent break, a blank run is more normal for the area. Keep an eye on the charts, but don't hold your breath.
Rusty.

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. Our Vilassar de Mar 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 (Vilassar de Mar) 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 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.
