Table - best surf conditions forecast for Cabo Lastres over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a hard look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a tough stretch. We’ve got a long wait ahead before anything worth paddling out for shows up.
The first real flicker of interest doesn’t appear until Friday the 22nd of July, when the swell pushes up to 5ft from the NW, but the wind isn’t doing us any favors. The combined swell energy is moderate at 352, but the conditions are marginal with a cross-shore breeze. It’s not a write-off, but you’d be looking at a bit of chop.
The standout, and I mean the only real standout in this whole window, is Thursday morning the 23rd of July. That’s when it finally comes together. Cabo Lastres will be seeing a clean 7ft NW swell with glassy conditions – that’s a major positive. The wind is light from the NE, so it’ll be clean, but hold up. That 7ft is pushing into expert territory. This is only for the experienced crew. The combined swell energy is strong at 583, so there’s plenty of power. The period is only 8 seconds though, so it’s a short-period windswell, not a long rolling groundswell. Expect a lot of close-out sections at this point break, especially with that size. It’s not the best shaped wave, but it’s the only game in town that’s any good. This is for experts only; beginners should sit this one out.
Between now and that Thursday morning, we’ve got a real drought. Nearly two full weeks of poor surf conditions. The waves are tiny, the winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and there’s just no energy. You’ll see a combined energy value as low as 19 on some days, which is about as weak as it gets. Don’t bother.
Keep an eye on the water temps. They’re about average for this time of year, nothing wild, but when that clean swell finally hits on the 23rd, it’ll be worth the wait for the hardcore locals.
Stay frothy.

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 Lastres 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.
