The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here with the lowdown for Azarujinha.
Let’s be honest: this stretch is a test of your patience. We’ve got a long, dry run of barely any surf from Thursday, August 13th, all the way through to Monday, August 24th. That’s a solid eleven days of flatness. A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area when the patterns lock up.
Our one real standout comes late in the game. On Monday, August 24th, the afternoon window shows a pulse of swell hitting 6 ft from the NW. The combined energy reads 442, which is moderate but has some push. The wind is out of the NW at 16 mph, which puts it offshore for this reef break. That’s a big deal – it’ll keep the surf clean and lined up. That NW direction is also right on the money for Azarujinha, which loves a swell from the SW. The water temp is running about 70°F, which is just a tick above average for this time of year.
That Monday afternoon session is the one. It’s an intermediate-level wave at 6 ft, and the offshore wind is going to make it rideable and fun. Just be aware the period is a short 9 seconds, so it’ll be a wind-swell feel, not a long, ground-swell wall.
The rest of the 16-day window is a bust. Tiny surf under 1 ft, a lot of cross-onshore or howling wind. On Tuesday, August 25th, and Wednesday, August 26th, we get a bump back up to 6 ft, but the wind is cross-shore or onshore, making for a messy, choppy surface. The combined energy jumps to 503 (strong), but the conditions are too rough. For those days, this spot would be more for the kite surfers than paddle surfers, as it’s a full-on mess.
Bottom line: hold out for Monday, August 24th afternoon. That’s your best chance for a clean wave. The rest is a surf-free zone. Forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
