The Lowdown

Alright folks, it’s your local surf reporter Rusty. Let’s break down the next 16 days for Beliche.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next couple of weeks aren’t looking like a classic run for Beliche. We’ve got a real rough start with no real surf to speak of for the first few days. The forecast is a bit of a grind, with a lot of days where the swell is weak and the conditions are just ordinary. The wave energy is mostly low, with readings often in the double digits, and while we get some moderate energy spikes (112 to 145), the quality just isn’t there for a good paddle.

The best window, and it’s a relative term here, looks to be around the 6th to the 7th of August. Thursday morning we’ll see a jump in size with a 5 ft swell from the NNW, but the period is a short, choppy 6–7 seconds, so it’s going to be a bit of a mess. The wind is howling from the NNW at 22 mph, and even though it’s offshore, that’s a strong and fresh breeze. The combined energy hits 267 (Friday morning), which is a solid push, but the short period means it’s not going to be the clean, lined-up waves we dream about. This is really only for the experienced crew; anything over 8 ft is expert-only, and 5 ft with that wind is a handful.

Later in the second week, around the 14th and 15th of August, we see another pulse of swell. Friday the 14th has a 4 ft swell from the NNW with a 7-second period, and Saturday the 15th has a 5 ft swell from the NW. The wind stays strong offshore (22–25 mph), which keeps the surface clean, but the energy is still moderate to strong (236 to 251). The short period (6–8 seconds) will keep things a bit lumpy and less powerful. Not a stand-out, but it’s the best of a quiet patch.

Honestly, for most of the 16 days, the scores are low, and the comments are “poor surf conditions.” The water temperature is about average for this time of year. There’s no standout session that gets me truly excited. The crowds might be there at times, but with the conditions this average, it might be a quieter lineup. For now, it’s a waiting game.

Rusty out.

Information about the Beliche Surf forecast

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

Beliche is 29 km (18 miles) from Lagos. If you plan a holiday in The Algarve, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lagos. Lagos has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
