The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for Azarujinha over the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 70°F, which is about 1°F warmer than usual for this time of year – nothing crazy, just a touch on the mild side. It’s a reef setup, pretty exposed to the swell, and the wind tends to be offshore from the North. The optimum direction is from the southwest, so we’ll be watching for that.
Honestly, the outlook is a bit of a struggle. There’s a long dry spell to start. The first day with any sort of recommendation is Wednesday the 12th, but even then it’s not exactly firing. The swell is small and the conditions are just ordinary. It’s not until Thursday the 13th that we get a tiny window of something that could be worth a paddle. The morning of the 13th has a 3ft swell from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds and a moderate offshore wind from the NNW. The combined energy is moderate at 177 – it’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. The break is fairly consistent, but the crowds are often here, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
After that, it’s a long, bleak run. From Friday the 14th right through to the 24th of August, the swell drops to nothing – 0.3ft to 0.7ft most days – and the energy is weak (single digit or low double-digit values). The wind is mostly offshore, which is clean, but there’s simply no wave to ride. It’s a frustrating stretch. For nearly a week and a half, you’re just looking at flat, clean water.
The next potential flicker of life comes right at the tail end of the forecast. Tuesday the 25th and Wednesday the 26th of August show a little bump. The 25th morning has a 2ft swell from the NW, period of 9 seconds, with a moderate offshore N wind. The energy is still weak (85), and the waves are described as surfable but very ordinary. Wednesday the 26th morning is a similar story – 2ft from the WNW, 9 seconds, light breeze, but still weak energy (59).
If I had to pick the best of a very poor bunch, the morning of Thursday the 13th is the standout. That 3ft WNW swell with clean offshore wind and moderate energy is the only real window. The 25th and 26th are a distant second, promising a little more action but still very small. There’s nothing here for the experts, and the beginners might get a few soft ones on the 13th if they’re keen.
So, a tough two weeks at Azarujinha. The forecast can change, and it’s a fairly consistent break, so it won’t stay this quiet forever. But right now, there’s not much to get excited about.
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.
