The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get honest about Azarujinha. It’s a reef set-up, exposed to the SW swell, and we’ve got a long, lean spell ahead before anything really gets moving.
The next 16 days start with a whole lot of nothing. From Friday the 14th right through to the end of the month, it’s mostly flat or tiny, with poor conditions. The punchy WNW swell on Friday the 14th is only 3ft at 9 seconds, and you’ve got a stiff 15 to 22 mph offshore wind that’s way too strong for any real fun. The water temp is a normal 70° for this time of year, but the wave energy is weak (122–130), so don’t bother paddling out.
We get a few small windows around the 20th and 24th. Thursday the 20th shows a tiny 2ft at 8 seconds on the morning session, with a clean cross-offshore breeze, but the combined energy is only 83 – barely enough to pop up. Then Monday the 24th morning brings a modest 4ft at 6 seconds, with a moderate offshore wind, but the energy is still just 95. Not great, not terrible, but definitely not worth rushing for.
The real standout, the only one that gets my heart pumping, lands on Friday the 28th. The morning session is the pick: a solid 6ft of NW swell at 11 seconds, with a moderate offshore wind from the north. The combined energy jumps to 835 – that’s moderate wave energy, and it’s clean. This is the best on offer, and it’s an intermediate-friendly size. The afternoon steps up to 7ft, but that’s pushing into expert territory with a fresh cross-offshore breeze at 19 mph. The energy there hits 2123, strong, but the wind might make it tricky.
Saturday the 29th morning still has a decent 4ft NW swell at a very long 15 seconds, with a fresh offshore breeze. Energy is 687, so it’s still punchy, but that long period means it’ll be a bit straight-looking at a beach break. For a reef break like Azarujinha, it should actually line up nicely, but the wind is howling at 22 mph, so paddling out will be a battle. The afternoon drops away fast.
So, the only day to really circle on the calendar is Friday the 28th. The morning will be clean, fun, and solid. After that, the second week fizzles out with tiny, weak swell and onshore winds. Crowds are often an issue here, so expect company on that Friday, but it’s worth 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.
