The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Azarujinha over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a bit of a slow burn. There’s a stretch of small, ordinary surf to get through before we see a proper spike of energy.
The first few days are pretty grim. Tuesday the 11th kicks off with a tiny 1.0ft windswell from the WNW, and even though the wind is offshore, the combined wave energy is a measly 19 – barely a ripple. Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th are slightly better, with the swell bumping up to 3-3ft from the WNW, but the conditions are described as "very ordinary" and the energy readings (120 to 177) are still weak. The offshore wind is there, but it’s not enough to make these waves sing. Then Friday the 14th through Monday the 18th is basically flat or junk, with tiny 0.3ft to 1.0ft swells and strong winds.
Now, we do get a little moment of calm on Thursday morning the 20th. The wind goes completely glassy – 0 mph – and there’s a 2ft, 11-second WNW groundswell. The energy is only 91, so it’s weak, but for a glassy morning session on a reef, it’ll be pretty and clean, even if the waves are small.
The real standout, and I mean the one to circle on your calendar, is Monday morning the 24th of August. That’s the one. The forecast shows a 7ft swell from the NW, with an 8-second period, blowing in with glassy conditions – no wind at all. The combined energy is a strong 603, and the commentary says "expect very good surf conditions." This is a proper pulse of size and power. For Azarujinha, a reef break exposed to the SW, that NW swell will wrap in nicely. The glassy, offshore wind will clean it right up. It’s going to be a proper session if you can get out there. Note that at over 5ft, this one’s for the experienced crew; beginners should sit this one out.
Before that, the afternoon of Sunday the 23rd also shows a bump to 5ft from the NW, with a fresh offshore wind and energy at 566. It’s called "marginal" due to tide, but it’s worth keeping an eye on for a late arvo paddle. The water temp anomaly is not given, so it’s just average for this time of year, nothing unusual to report.
After that Monday high, it drops right back off into tiny, poor surf through to the end of the window on the 26th. So, to be clear: you’ve got a long, flatish week ahead, then that Monday morning the 24th is your one true shot at something special. Get on it.
Rusty.

Information about the Azarujinha Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Azarujinha provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Azarujinha can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Azarujinha 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 (Azarujinha) 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 Azarujinha 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.
Azarujinha is 2 km (1 miles) from Estoril. If you plan a holiday in Lisboa, look for hotels and other accommodation in Estoril. Estoril has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
