The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me level with you about the Algarve region.
Honestly, this is a tough stretch. The surf is going to be small and pretty ordinary for the next couple of weeks. Aiguaoliva is a rare-break reef setup that needs a specific swell, and we just aren't getting it. We've got a 16-day window with nothing on the table worth getting excited about.
Forget about this coming Saturday, there’s no surf. Sunday and Monday are flat. Tuesday the 18th and Wednesday the 19th have tiny, weak energy, with waves barely reaching 0.3ft to 2ft. It’s pretty much a complete write-off. There’s a long gap of nothing worth paddling out for.
The first possible glimmer comes on Thursday, the 20th of August. The morning has a clean, cross-off wind and a small bump of 2ft from the SSE. The combined wave energy is only weak, so it's not going to be powerful, but it might be the most surfable chance in the whole period. Even then, "poor surf conditions" is the call. The water temperature is a very unusual 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.
For the rest of the first week and into the second, we see the same story: knee-high mush from the SE and SSE, with periods around 4 to 5 seconds. The only real change is the wind. There might be a clean moment on the 25th in the morning with a light NNW cross-off, but the swell is still tiny at 2ft. On the 24th, the wind cranks from the NW at 34 mph. That's not for surfing; that setup is more interesting for a kite session.
Don't hold your breath. The last week of August and into September is a blank run of tiny lines and closeout shorebreak. This is one of those times where the forecasts can change, but right now? It's a flat spell.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Aiguaoliva 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 Aiguaoliva 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.
