Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this outlook for the Beliche area over the next few weeks is a tough one to write. The short version is, the surf is pretty ordinary for most of the run, with only a couple of very narrow windows that might get you wet, and even then, you’ll have to work for it.

We’re looking at a stretch from the 6th of July right through to the middle of the second week, where the swell is small, the wind is often a problem, and the wave energy is just not there. The first recommendation comes on Monday morning the 6th, but with a tiny 1ft swell from the northwest at a short 9 seconds, and a light cross-onshore ESE wind, it’s looking poor. The combined wave energy is a weak 28, so honestly, it’s barely worth a paddle. This poor pattern holds all the way through the week.

There is a glimmer on Sunday the 12th. For the morning session at Beliche, we’ve got a glassy 3ft WNW groundswell pushing in. The combined energy lifts to a moderate 176, and with the wind glassy off the northwest, conditions will be clean. The period is a decent 10 seconds, suggesting better-shaped waves. But don’t get too excited – it’s still small and the quality is just ‘surfable but very ordinary’.

After that, we go back into a long, dry run of poor conditions. The wind gets strong and offshore through the week of the 14th, which sounds good, but the swell remains tiny and choppy.

The only other potential standout is right at the very end of the forecast period. On Monday the 21st of July, we see a jump in energy. The morning shows a 6ft NW swell with an 8-second period, and the combined energy is a strong 402. The wind is fresh offshore from the NNW, which is great for clean faces. But this one is a warning, not a welcome. The conditions are described as ‘marginal’ and the size is pushing 7ft. At this size, especially with that strong breeze, it's for solid intermediates and above. The swell direction (NNW) is slightly off the optimum (NW), but it’s the best energy we’ll see all month. Be warned, the afternoon builds to 7ft with a near gale cross-offshore wind – that’s getting into expert-only, maybe even kitesurfing territory.

Bottom line: There’s very little on offer. The glassy Sunday the 12th is your only real shot at a clean, small wave, and the 21st of July is a raw, powerful option for the experienced crew. For everyone else, the next two weeks are a write-off.

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.
