The Lowdown

Alright, surfers, Rusty here with the outlook for Beliche.

First off, we’ve got a real slow start. The next few days are flat and forgettable – Monday the 20th only offering a tiny 1-ft pulse from the WNW with a short 8-second period and barely any energy (32). That’s a washout. Tuesday morning the 21st sees a bump to 3 ft from the NNW, period 7 seconds, energy creeping up to 111 – surfable but very ordinary, and the wind is a moderate offshore. Still nothing to write home about.

The rest of that week stays small and weak. Wednesday through Saturday barely break 1 ft, with fresh offshore winds but no real push. Sunday the 26th is still tiny, 0.7 ft, though the 10-second period hints at some groundswell character – but with energy in the teens, it’s a non-starter.

Then Monday the 27th we get a jump in size: 5 ft from the NNW, but only 6 seconds period and a cross-off wind. The energy is moderate (235) but the surf quality is poor – too short period and messy. Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th bring onshore winds and choppy conditions, not worth your time.

Now here’s where it gets interesting. Thursday morning the 30th of July – that’s the first real standout. We’ve got a solid 6.2-ft NNW groundswell with a 9-second period, energy up at 565 (moderate-to-strong), and a clean offshore breeze from the NNW at 12 mph. The wave comment says “expect good surf conditions.” This is the one to circle. Beliche is a beach-and-point setup, sheltered from the south, and the optimum swell direction is NW

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.
