The Lowdown
Imperial
Listen up, folks. Rusty here, and the news ain't good for Cabo Blanco. We're staring down a flat spell that's gonna drag on.
For the next two weeks, there's barely a ripple. The water's warmer than a forgot-to-turn-off-the-hose situation, at 74°, which is a solid 7° above average – that's wild.
The whole 16-day forecast is a bust. Yeah, around the 21st and 22nd of July the combined wave energy gets into the moderate zone – hitting 130 on the 21st afternoon and 156 on the 22nd afternoon. But the swell height is still pathetic, barely a foot and a half at best, from the NW. And that cross-shore wind? It's fresh and just ruining any chance of a clean face. The period is long, around 18-19 seconds, which is a groundswell, but with that little push it's just gonna be lumpy water.
There is no best session. Nothing to highlight. With that moderate energy but garbage quality and strong cross winds, this whole stretch is looking way more interesting for kite surfers than anyone with a paddle. We just gotta wait for the charts to flip. A dead run like this isn't unusual for this spot when the swell direction is off.
Rusty.

Information about the Cabo Blanco Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Cabo Blanco provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Cabo Blanco can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Cabo Blanco 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 (Cabo Blanco) 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 Cabo Blanco 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.
