The Lowdown

Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break down what we’ve got at Beliche. Right out of the gate for the afternoon of Sunday, July 26th, we’ve got a 5 ft swell from the NNW, but that 35 km/h wind from the same direction – it’s offshore, but rippin’ hard. The water feels a bit colder than average at 66°. Combined energy sits at a moderate 274, but with a short 7-second period and those winds, it’s rough. Poor surf.

Monday the 27th morning brings a 4 ft NNW swell, still a short 7-second period (energy 159), but the wind is a light 5 km/h ENE cross-offshore. Clean and small. Surfable but nothing special. Tuesday the 28th morning offers up a 3 ft NNW swell with a better 10-second period (energy 202) and a clean 20 km/h N offshore breeze. That’s the most promising shape so far – cleaner lines for sure. But still not a standout.

From Wednesday the 29th onward for well over a week, it’s tiny or messy. Thursday the 30th has a measly 1 ft, Friday the 31st morning has a 4 ft NW bump with a weak 6-second period – just won’t hold. Through the weekend and into the next week, the swell stays small, often with strong offshore winds that keep the surface clean but don’t leave you much to ride. Even the Sunday, August 2nd morning with 5 ft and 8-second period (stronger energy of 312) winds up ordinary.

Then we hit a real dry spell. From August 3rd through the 9th, the swell is barely a ripple – 0.7 ft to 3 ft at best. That’s about a week where you’d be waiting on the sand. The only moment of hope in the entire two weeks is far off: the morning of Monday, August 10th. Beliche gets 5 ft from the NW with a 10-second period and a moderate 20 km/h N offshore wind. The combined energy jumps to 629 – strong. The direction matches perfectly, the wind is clean offshore. It’s the one bright spot. The water will still be a couple degrees colder than normal.

After that, Monday the 10th afternoon still sees 4 ft but the wind shifts cross-offshore and it fades. Rest of the week is small and poor.

So, the first 10 days or more are a big fat bust. The real call is for the morning of August 10th – that’s the session you want to aim for. Clean, solid, proper offshore wind. That’s your window.

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.
