The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about the waves on offer for the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you: it's a grim run for Vilassar de Mar. We're looking at a long stretch of nothing. The water is sitting at 82°F which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, feels like a bathtub. But that warmth is about the only thing going for us.
The forecast starts with a proper blank. From Tuesday the 25th of August right through until the 3rd of September, it's virtually flat. We're talking about a week and a bit where the swell's just a whisper, with combined energy barely hitting double digits – a measly 29 (units) is the best we see, and even that's on a 2ft SE dribble with a 12 mph cross-breeze. It's poor.
The only real window of hope – and I'm using that word loosely – shows up on the Friday morning of the 28th of August. There's a 3ft swell from the SW, period a weak 5 seconds, pushing 69 (units) of energy. The wind is a light cross-off from the WSW at 9 mph, so the surface should be clean. But with that short period, it's gonna be a fat, weak wave and the spot is exposed to the ESE, so it's not a perfect match. That's your best bet in the whole 16-day window, and it's still only a "poor surf conditions" call.
The rest of the first week of September is a desert. We get a few days with tiny 0.7ft to 1ft pulses, but the winds are mostly onshore or cross-shore. There's a couple of glassy mornings, but with no swell to push into them, it's just a flat, shiny lake. By the 6th and 7th of September, the wind is offshore, but there's zero swell to groom.
Honestly, the whole 16-day window is a write-off. The spot is inconsistent at the best of times, and this forecast is a perfect example of why. It's a blank run that's pretty normal for the area when the right swell windows don't line up. Don't bother checking the buoys, just take the opportunity to wax your board, fix a ding, or watch a surf movie. It's not looking good until at least the 10th of September.
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.

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.
