The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, let’s run through it in feet and Fahrenheit so you can picture it.
For the first week and a half, the swell is small and the energy is low. Waves are mostly under 3ft, a lot of it in the 1.0ft to 3ft range, with combined swell energy generally sitting between 29 and 190 – that’s weak to moderate juice at best. The winds are often cross-off or offshore, but the swell just isn’t there to make it worthwhile. The water temperature is 69°F, which is exactly normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real standout shows up on Saturday, August 15th, in the morning. This is about as close to a glass-off as you get – a 5 km/h wind from the NW, glassy conditions on the water. Swell is small at 2ft from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds, and combined energy of 71. It’s not a big day, but for a reef break, with clean, glassy conditions, it’s the best you’ll see for a while. Azarujinha is a fairly consistent reef, exposed to the SW swell, but the crowds are often there, so expect company.
Another bright spot is on Sunday, August 16th, in the morning. A 4ft NW swell with a period of 9 seconds, and combined energy of 193. It’s a little more size, and the wind is light from the NE, giving clean, cross-off conditions. This is a better option for intermediates looking for a bit more push.
The end of the run, around Friday, August 21st, throws up a bigger pulse. In the afternoon we see a 4ft NW swell, period of 11 seconds, and combined energy of 379 (moderate energy). The problem is the wind is cross-on from the SW, which will chop it up, so it’s not the clean one to chase. The morning of the 21st has a 3ft NW swell and 291 energy, but with onshore wind, it’s a write-off.
After that, from the 22nd onward, it drops back to tiny, weak, and messy. This is a long stretch of quiet, so if you’re hanging out for the 15th or 16th, that’s your window.
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.
