The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window for Azarujinha is a total bummer. There's nothing on the table that’s worth paddling out for. The whole stretch from now, Wednesday 15 July, right through to Thursday 30 July, is basically a flat spell. The only flicker of life is on Wednesday morning 22 July, when the surf report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" – that’s about as generous as it gets. Even then, we’re talking tiny 1ft swell from the WNW, with a short 9-second period, and combined energy of just 60 – weak. Winds are light cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean, but those waves are barely a ripple. Every other day is "poor surf conditions" – no go.
Azarujinha is a reef break that’s fairly consistent and intermediate-friendly, but it needs a proper swell to work. The optimum direction is SW, but we’re getting mostly WNW scraps, and the swell heights never reach even 2ft. The water temp is 67°, which is about average for this time of year – no surprise there. Crowds are often a factor here, but with this lack of surf, you’ll have the place to yourself. Honestly, if you’re desperate for a splash, the 22 July morning is your only shot, but don’t expect anything memorable. For a reef that can handle decent swell, this is a long, quiet stretch. It won’t stay poor forever – forecasts can change – but right now, I’d save the wax.

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.
