Today's Surf Conditions at Hondarribia
Best Surf Season & Climatology
Best Surf Season (October - March)
The North Atlantic transitions into full storm mode from October through March, and Hondarribia reaps the rewards. Average swell heights climb to 1.6-2.1m (5-7ft), with wave periods in the 11-13s band-right in the powerful long-period window. The dominant northwest and west-northwest swell angles (NO and ONO) line up perfectly with this northeast-facing beach, wrapping in clean lines when the wind holds from the SSW-SW-WSW-W offshore sector. The ideal wind percentage hovers around 30-33%, and the cooler air temperatures and frequent Atlantic lows bring the consistent, sizeable surf that this stretch of the Basque coast is known for.
