The Lowdown

Alright, let’s call it like it is—this forecast for Barra da Lagoa is a long, flat dry spell.

From Wednesday the 19th of August all the way through to the morning of Sunday the 30th of August, there’s barely a ripple. The combined wave energy is sitting at zero for most of that time, and the few tiny bumps we see are just not worth mentioning. The water sits at 66°F, right where it should be for this time of year.

The first real chance of a wave comes on Sunday the 30th of August. That morning, we’ve got a 0.6ft swell from the SE, with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy is a weak 58. The wind is glassy—dead calm—so the surface is clean. The afternoon is a little better, with the same 0.6ft swell, period 10 seconds, and energy climbing to 96. Still tiny, but it’s surfable. The wind stays glassy. This is your only window, but it’s ordinary, small, and soft.

Monday the 31st of August brings a bit more energy—213 from the SSE—but it’s crossed with an onshore wind and quickly turns choppy and messy. The rest of the week is more of the same: small, bumpy, and not worth paddling out for.

If you’re really keen, the Sunday the 30th session is your best shot. Clean, tiny, and totally beginner-friendly, but it’s hardly a standout. The rest of the 16 days? Nada.

Rusty.

Information about the Barra da Lagoa Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Barra da Lagoa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Barra da Lagoa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Barra da Lagoa 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 (Barra da Lagoa) 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 Barra da Lagoa 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.
