The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s in the water.

First off, the first week and a half is a slow grind. Small waves and mostly messy. The first window worth paddling out for is Tuesday morning, August 11th, at Zurriola hondartza. It’s only 2ft from the NW with a 9-second period, so not a lot of juice (67), but the wind is glassy, dead flat. That’s a huge plus. The water temp is about normal for the season. It’s a fairly consistent beach, so you might snag a few, but expect some company. That clean, tiny surf is for the patient intermediate with a log.

Wednesday morning, August 12th, is the same story: 2ft from the NW, 8-second period (69), and glassy. Not a barnburner, but the cleanest we get for a while.

The real standout comes later. The morning of Saturday, August 22nd is the pick of the entire run. We get glassy conditions again, with the swell bumping up a touch to 3ft from the NW. The period is 10 seconds, and the combined energy hits a moderate 165. That’s the most power we see with clean wind. The swell direction is NW, which is what this break likes, so the shape should be decent. The next morning, Sunday, August 23rd, also has a glassy window with 3ft NW swell at 8 seconds (160), making it a solid backup. Both are long-range, so a bit less certain, but they look good.

Most afternoons are trashed by onshore wind, turning the surf into a bumpy mess. There’s a long stretch from the 12th to the 21st with very few clean options and mostly poor surf. That’s pretty normal for this spot when the swell is this inconsistent. For beginners, anything over 5ft can be a handful, but we never get there here. The short-period days (under 8 seconds) will give you weaker, mushier waves.

So, the call: early on, it’s a glass-off on tiny waves. The one to circle on the calendar is the morning of the 22nd – cleanest conditions with the most energy. That’s your best bet.

Rusty.

Information about the Zurriola hondartza Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Zurriola hondartza provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Zurriola hondartza can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Zurriola hondartza 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 (Zurriola hondartza) 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 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. 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.
