The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story, different numbers. Gonna be a quiet couple of weeks.
We’ve got a long, slow patch ahead. The first week is a total no-go. Water temp is about 76°F, which is much toastier than normal for the season. Nice for a dip, but no good for the surf.
From Sunday, August 2nd, through Monday, August 10th, it’s all "poor surf conditions" with tiny, weak energy. You’re looking at small, crumbly waves with awful short-period wind chop. Not worth the wetsuit.
We get a tiny little lifeline on the morning of Tuesday, August 11th. The wind goes glassy out of the NNE. The swell is a measly 2ft from the NW, with a short 7-second period, but at least the description flips to "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions". Energy is still weak. It’s the first time it's worth even looking at. The same kind of small, glassy, but gutless offering shows up again on the morning of Wednesday, August 12th, with 3ft swell from the NNW (6-second period). If you are desperate, those two glassy mornings are your best bets, but you'll need a log.
After that, it drops back to nothing. The whole second week fades into tiny dribblers and bad wind.
For the whole 16-day run, Tuesday, August 11th morning is the standout. It’s glassy, it’s knee to waist high, and that’s as exciting as it gets.
Zurriola is a fairly consistent spot so blank runs like this aren't the norm. Forecasts can always change and bring something better.
Rusty.

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Zurriola hondartza 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.
