Cabo Blanco Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming our way.

We've got a decent run of small but clean surf on the cards for Cabo Blanco, starting this Sunday morning. The water is sitting at a balmy 86°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a good 4° above average, so you can leave the wetsuit at home.

Sunday the 13th kicks things off with a clean 2ft swell from the SW, with a nice 13-second period. The wind is glassy, making for some really fun, clean conditions on the small waves. The combined energy is a modest 260 (moderate wave energy), so nothing thumping, but it’ll be a good one for a longboard or a funboard. Expect crowds to be around sometimes, as this spot is fairly consistent.

Monday morning the 14th looks similar, with the swell bumping up just a touch to 3ft from the SSW, period dropping to 9 seconds. Again, glassy conditions. That’s a solid morning session.

Tuesday the 15th brings a shift. The swell drops back to 2ft from the SW, but the period stretches out to 18 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, and with a cross-offshore breeze, it’ll be clean. The energy picks up to 392 (moderate wave energy). This is a standout for the week – that long period will make the most of the small height, especially on the point.

Wednesday morning the 16th is a real highlight. The swell is 3ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, and it’s glassy. The combined energy jumps to 550 (moderate wave energy), and the forecast says “expect very good surf conditions.” This is the pick of the first week. Get in the water.

The pattern continues through the end of the week and into the next, with small but clean swells, mostly in the 2ft to 3ft range, with plenty of glassy mornings. The period stays in the 13-16 second range, keeping the quality up.

Looking further out, Saturday the 26th shows a slightly bigger pulse. The swell is 5ft from the WSW, but the period is a short 7 seconds. That’s a wind swell, and while it’s bigger, it won’t have the same shape as the groundswells. The energy is up at 429 (moderate wave energy). It’s a good option if you want a little more push, but don’t expect the same long lines.

A notable mention for Monday the 21st: another “very good” morning with 3ft from the SW, an 18-second period, and dead calm wind. That’s a second standout session.

Overall, Cabo Blanco is offering a solid two-week block of small but clean, rideable surf. The real gems are the Wednesday 16th and Monday 21st mornings.

Stay stoked.
