Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming down the pipe for Zurriola hondartza.
Right off the bat, I’ll be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking pretty ordinary. There’s a real lack of push in the water and the windows of decent conditions are narrow. The first standout worth paddling out for hits early on Saturday, July 4th. We’ve got a clean morning with glassy conditions, offshore light air from the NNW, and a clean 4ft NW swell with a 10-second period. Wave energy is moderate (220), and while the swell isn’t huge, that glass makes it the pick of the whole outlook for a fun, uncrowded paddle. It’s intermediate-friendly, but hey, even a beginner could have a crack if they’re careful.
Water temperature is a very unusual 75°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit.
After that, things drop off fast. Sunday and Monday have small, weak swell and cross-onshore winds that mess up the face. From Tuesday July 7th through to Thursday July 9th, the swell drops to tiny 1ft to 2ft and the combined energy stays under 100 (weak). A few mornings offer glass again, like Wednesday July 8th morning and Thursday July 9th morning, but the swell is just too small – think ankle-biters. The 9th and 10th bring back some glassy pockets but still nothing with enough grunt to make you rush down.
The energy picks up slightly around Saturday July 11th morning with glassy conditions and a 2ft NW groundswell at 12 seconds – that long period will produce clean lines but the size is small and combined energy is moderate (113). Another possible look-in is Monday July 13th morning with a glassy 3ft NW swell (8-second period), but period is short so it’ll be a bit weak and crumbly.
There are no big swells, no epic sessions. The best bet is still that Saturday July 4th morning. If you’ve got the patience, Tuesday July 14th morning might give a glassy window on 1ft WNW groundswell, but it’s really just a gamble.
Honestly, this stretch has long gaps of near flatness and the only real quality sits in that one Saturday window. It’s not a kite-surfing setup either – the wind is too light or onshore most of the time. You’re better off waiting for the next system to fill in.
Stay tuned, and stay wet.
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.
