The Lowdown
Right then, Rusty here with the same story in feet and miles per hour.
Overall, this 16-day stretch is patchy. A few decent sessions early on and in the first weekend of September, but a lot of flat spells in between. No massive swells, just a couple of windows for a clean, fun paddle.
Sunday, August 30th is the first real chance. Azarujinha is showing 4 ft NW swell, 8-second period, with a light offshore wind out of the NNW at 12 mph. The water temp is about normal for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate (218). It’s clean and the reef is working. This morning window is the best early call.
By Sunday afternoon, the wind picks up to 19 mph and swings cross-offshore. The swell hits 5 ft but the quality drops fast. Monday, August 31st morning still has 4 ft NW with offshore wind, but the conditions are only marginal. It’s okay if you’re keen, but not a standout.
Then it flatlines. Tuesday, September 1st has almost nothing – 0.7 ft and weak energy. That kicks off a real dry stretch. Wednesday, September 2nd morning only musters 2 ft with weak energy, and it’s ordinary. Thursday and Friday are even smaller and not worth the drive.
Saturday, September 5th brings a pulse back. Morning at Azarujinha has 4 ft WNW swell, 9-second period, and light offshore at 9 mph. Combined energy hits 289. It’s clean and fun. Not huge, but after that flat spell, it looks pretty good.
Sunday, September 6th morning is the absolute best of the whole forecast. Swell is 4 ft NW, period stretches to 11 seconds, and the wind is almost glassy out of the NNE at just 3 mph. Combined energy is 430. The reef will love that period, and the surface will be like a mirror. This is the one to aim for. The afternoon stays clean but goes cross-off, still good.
After that, it fades again. Monday 7th is ordinary, Tuesday 8th drops to nothing, and from Wednesday, September 9th through Sunday, September 13th, it’s almost all flat or very tiny with barely any energy. A flicker on Sunday afternoon with 3 ft NW swell at 14 seconds and 338 energy, but it’s cross-off and marginal. Monday, September 14th is just ordinary.
Best in the run: Sunday morning, September 6th. Clean, glassy, fun size. The early window on Sunday the 30th and Saturday the 5th are the next best bets. There are big gaps with no surf for days at a time in between, so pick your moment. Water temp is normal for the season. Not a classic stretch, but a couple of beauty windows.
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.
