The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Beliche over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a pretty flat spell for the most part, with a few little windows where it might just be worth a look.

We’re starting off with a real quiet patch. The first few days here are a write-off. Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd have tiny 2-2 ft swell from the west, with a short period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is weak, sitting at just 69 and 62. The wind is moderate, coming from the NNW, keeping it clean but with no power to speak of. You’re not missing anything.

There’s a slight bump on Tuesday the 4th morning. The swell lifts to 3 ft from the WNW, still with a 9-second period. The combined energy ticks up to 112, which is weak to moderate. The wind is light from the NW, making it cross-off and clean. I’d call it “surfable but very ordinary.” Not a standout, but if you’re desperate for a paddle, it’s the best of a bad bunch early on.

Wednesday the 5th morning shows a similar story – 3 ft from the WNW with an 8-second period, but the combined energy bumps to 164. The wind is offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, so it’ll be clean. Still, it’s small and weak.

Then we hit a stretch where the swell height picks up a bit, but the quality just isn’t there. From Thursday the 6th through to Sunday the 11th, we see swell heights around 4 ft to 6 ft, mostly from the NNW. The period is short, only 6-8 seconds, which means bumpy, weak waves. The combined energy gets into the 200-290 range, so moderate. BUT the wind is howling from the NNW at 19-25 mph, making it fresh offshore or strong offshore. The data says “strong offshore and clean but hard to paddle into” – and that’s the truth. For a beach and point setup like Beliche, this is more of a kite-surfing show than a proper paddle session. Not for beginners either, as it’s over 5 ft.

The second week doesn’t offer much relief. From Monday the 11th onwards, the swell drops back to 2 ft to 4 ft, with periods of 8-9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (139-253). The wind stays mostly cross-off from the NNW or NW, keeping it clean. But the waves are consistently described as “poor surf conditions” or “very ordinary.” The best we get is a couple of mornings on the 15th and 16th with a light offshore breeze and small, weak swell.

Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window, there’s no single standout day. The water temp is a chilly 66°F with a -4°F anomaly – that’s much colder than normal for this time of year, so bring a thick suit if you’re getting in.

If you’re itching to get wet, the morning of Tuesday the 4th or Wednesday the 5th are the least bad options. After that, it’s a long wait until the 15th or 16th for a tiny, clean window. But don’t hold your breath. The forecast can always change, so keep an eye on it.

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.
