The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a bit of a flat spell for us. The first few days are looking pretty grim, with a lot of small, weak swell and poor conditions. We're looking at a gap from now until the 27th of July where there's just nothing worth getting excited about. The swell is tiny, the wind is messy, and the surf is just not there.
Come the 27th of July, we finally see a pulse of longer-period groundswell from the NNW, around 3 to 4ft, but it's still getting chopped up by cross-shore winds. The combined energy climbs to 303 (moderate), but the quality is just not there. It's a marginal call at best.
The standout window, and the only real blip of hope, looks to be around the 29th of July. Wednesday morning we've got a clean 3ft of NNW groundswell with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind goes glassy. That's a rare treat. The combined energy sits at 244 (moderate). For a spot like Cabo Lastres (point break), this long-period groundswell is exactly what it wants. The sets will be clean and well-shaped, with longer lulls between them. The water temperature is sitting at 72°, which is a whopping 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's very unusual, and a real bonus.
The 1st of August also shows a little more size, with a 4ft NW swell on Saturday afternoon, but the wind is onshore, and it's only a "marginal" call. The 2nd of August has another glassy morning, but the swell is back down to 3ft.
After that, the second week trails off into nothing but tiny, weak swells again. The 5th and 6th of August are practically flat. It's a long stretch of nothing.
So, the one and only true standout is Wednesday morning, the 29th of July. Get on it while the glass is on and the point is working. Everything else is a washout.
Rusty.

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