The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, with a look at what's coming down the line at Azarujinha. Let's get straight into it.
Right now, things are pretty flat. We're looking at a few days of nothing special before the ocean wakes up. The first real chance to get wet comes on Monday the 14th. The early session on Monday morning is looking like the pick of that first window, with a glassy 2ft swell. It's not huge, but the clean, wind-free conditions are a major positive.
That Monday afternoon holds some clean waves too, around 3ft. After that, we hit a gap. Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th are write-offs as a strong offshore wind messes things up, making it hard to even paddle into the tiny bumps. We've got a blank stretch of a couple of days there.
The outlook turns around properly on Thursday the 17th morning. The wind is a moderate offshore from the north, cleaning up a 4ft swell from the WNW. The wave energy is decent at 326.
Now, let's talk about the real standouts. Keep your eyes on the second week. Saturday the 19th morning is one to mark. A clean 5ft groundswell from the NW, with a moderate offshore breeze. The combined energy is pumping in at 984, which is a solid boost in power. This one looks very good.
Then, Sunday the 20th is another cracker. The morning sees the same size—5ft from the NW—but with a lighter, gentle offshore wind. It's going to be clean and consistent.
But the absolute prize in this outlook is Monday the 21st. This is for the experienced crew. The swell jumps up to 7ft from the NW with a 14-second period. That's a solid, powerful groundswell. The wind is a light cross-offshore, leaving it clean as a whistle. The combined energy is a very strong 1905. This is excellent surf, but at that size, it's for good surfers only. The swell direction is a perfect match for the reef setup.
By Tuesday the 22nd, the swell sticks around at 8ft, but the wind turns cross-onshore, making it a bit lumpy. Still a lot of water moving, just not as clean.
We finish the run with one more good one on Wednesday the 23rd morning. A glassy 6ft from the NW. Get it while you can, because later that afternoon and the following days, things drop right off again.
So in short: the first week is a slow burn, but the second week from the 19th to the 23rd has some serious potential. Monday the 21st is the one to plan for.
Stay stoked.
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.
