Vilassar de Mar Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer around here.

Honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead for Vilassar de Mar. The next 16 days are lookin’ real quiet, with hardly any surf worth paddling out for. We’re talkin’ a long, dry gap—pretty much the whole first week and beyond—where conditions are either flat or just plain messy. The swell energy is weak throughout, with most readings sittin’ under 100 (like 58 down to 1), so there’s no real push in the water.

Tuesday 25 August starts with a tiny 3ft swell from the SW, but it’s a short period of 5 seconds, so it’s weak and crumbly. Winds are offshore from the WNW at 6 mph in the morning, so it’s clean but the surf is poor and not worth a session. The afternoon turns cross-shore from the SW at 12 mph, murking it up even more.

From Wednesday 26 August right through to Monday morning 31 August, it’s a ghost town. We’re talkin’ ankle-snappers at best, with heights between 0.3ft and 2ft, and most sessions glassy but flat. A few mornings look clean with glass or light offshore winds, like Thursday morning 27 August (WSW at 3 mph, 2ft, glassy) and Saturday morning 29 August (WSW at 3 mph, 0.7ft, glassy), but the energy’s so low—19 and 7 respectively—it’s barely a ripple.

Into September, the pattern doesn’t change. Monday afternoon 7 September has a tiny bump of 2ft from the SSW with a fresh cross-shore wind at 19 mph, which is more of a windswell mess than anything else. The rest is dirt, with many entries showing zero swell and just glassy flatness or choppy junk.

The standout? There isn’t one. If you’re desperate for a stretch of clean, flat water for a paddleboard, Thursday morning 27 August or Saturday morning 29 August are your best bets with glass. But for surf? This stretch is a write-off. The weak combined energy across the board tells the story—most readings are below 20, and the biggest is only 58 on Tuesday morning. Don’t hold your breath.

Rusty.
