Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for this stretch.
Honestly, it's a tough outlook for Almagreira. The whole 16-day window is pretty flat and frustrating. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no real swell to get excited about. The first few days are a write-off with tiny, weak windswell that’s all churned up by onshore winds. From Tuesday morning, July 7th, right through to the end, it’s a real struggle.
You’ve got a long gap of nothing but marginal, poor surf. The best you can hope for is a brief moment on Sunday morning, July 12th, when the wind goes glassy. But even then, the swell is a tiny 2 ft from the W with a short period of 8 seconds, giving weak combined energy (48). It’s rideable for a beginner on a foamie, but there's no power or push. For the rest, it’s mostly onshore winds and ankle-biters.
Later on, around Sunday, July 19th, there's a slight uptick with a 3 ft WNW swell, but the wind is up at 15 mph from the NNW and cross-onshore in the afternoon. That’s going to chop it up and make it a messy, blown-out affair. The combined energy does hit 76, which is something, but the quality just isn’t there for a good paddle. The setup here, being a fairly exposed beach, looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing when the wind is up like that.
Bottom line: There’s no standout period. Nothing is worth a special trip. It’s one of those blank runs that happens here, so don't hold your breath. Forecasts can change, but right now, save the wax.

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