The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you—this next stretch is a tough one for the lineup. We’re looking at a solid run of days where the surf just isn’t cooperating. The first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Wednesday, August 5th, so we’re staring down a gap of nearly a week with no real recommendations.

The overall pattern is dominated by a persistent northerly wind regime, which is good for the offshore flow at Beliche (beach and point), but the swell energy is just too weak and mixed up. We’re seeing a lot of small, short-period NW to WNW swells that just don’t have the push. The combined energy is mostly in the double digits, like 55 (weak) to 139 (moderate), but the wave quality is consistently rated as poor. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing wild there.

The only period that shows a glimmer of hope kicks off on the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. The wind is a gentle offshore from the NNW at 9 mph, which is clean. The swell is a weak 3 ft from the WNW with a short period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 128 (moderate). The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It’s not a standout, but it’s the first thing that’s even worth looking at. Conditions are clean, but that swell is tiny and weak.

A couple of days later, the afternoon of Saturday, August 8th, could offer a slightly better window. The afternoon shows a 4 ft swell from the W, with an 8-second period and combined energy of 153 (moderate). The wind is a gentle cross-offshore from the W at 9 mph, keeping things clean. Again, it’s "surfable but very ordinary."

The only real standout in this whole 16-day window lands on the morning of Tuesday, August 12th. The swell is 5 ft from the NW, with an 8-second period and combined energy of 346 (strong). The wind is a moderate offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, which will keep the waves clean. This is the biggest and most energetic swell of the period, and with offshore wind, it’s the best shot at a decent wave. It’s still a short-period swell, so it won’t have the grunt of a groundswell, but it’s the best this run has to offer. The forecast is a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the one to hope for.

Bottom line: a long, flat spell, then a few marginal days, with one swell on the 12th that’s the only real highlight. Don’t get your hopes up too much, but don’t write off the 12th just yet.

Rusty.

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.
