Table - best surf conditions forecast for Barra da Lagoa over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here, checkin’ in from the beach. The next sixteen days are a bit of a mixed bag, but there’s a definite standout window if you’ve got patience. Right now, we’re in a flat spell – not much happening until we hit the weekend after next.
The place to watch is Barra da Lagoa. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, fairly consistent, and exposed to a bit of swell. The water’s sitting at 62°, which is a solid 4° colder than usual for this time of year – so you’ll want the thickest wetsuit you’ve got.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Saturday, July 11th. The morning session is the pick of the whole forecast. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell pushing in from the ESE with a 13-second period – that’s some proper groundswell energy. The combined energy is sitting at 596 (moderate to strong), and with a light offshore wind from the WSW, the waves will be clean and lined up. It’s a solid beginner-friendly size, but the long period means it’ll be peeling nicely. The best part? The wind is offshore, so expect glassy faces. Later that afternoon, the swell drops a touch to 4ft and the wind swings cross-on, but the energy is still there at 721 (strong). It’s surfable, but the morning is the one.
Sunday, July 12th, the morning is messy with a cross-shore breeze and 3ft swell at 13 seconds. The afternoon cleans up with an offshore wind from the west, but the swell drops to 3ft – still a little fun if you’re keen.
Then things fade. From Monday, July 13th, we’re into a long dry spell. The swell drops right off, with heights under 2ft and weak energy readings in the double digits. There’s a glassy morning on Tuesday, July 14th, but with only 1ft of 8-second windswell, it’s not worth paddling out for. The rest of the week and into the next is a write-off – tiny waves, onshore or cross-shore breezes, and energy readings barely cracking 20.
The best on offer is unequivocally Saturday, July 11th morning at Barra da Lagoa. That’s the standout. Get on it while it’s clean.
Rusty.
