The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I’ll keep it simple. We’re in for a long, dry spell. From Tuesday the 14th right through to the end of the month, the surf is practically non-existent. Tiny, gutless waves—most under 1ft—and hardly any energy to speak of. The water’s about 80.6°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year (a good 7° above normal). Feels like a swimming pool.
For days on end—from the 14th to the 28th of July—there’s nothing worth paddling out for. A few knee-high bumps show up but they’re weak and messy.
Then, out of nowhere, on the morning of Monday the 29th of July, we get a pulse. Algajola gets a clean 3 to 4ft west swell, with a 7-second period. The energy finally climbs to moderate, and with glassy conditions early, it’s going to be the best session we’ve had in weeks. It’s small enough for beginners but fun for everyone. The crowds are rare there, so you’ll have space. Get on it first thing, because the wind turns onshore by the afternoon and spoils it.
That Monday morning is your only real bet. Go get it.

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