The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a long, flat stretch ahead. The first surfable window doesn’t appear until the morning of Monday, August 17th. That’s a solid gap of over a week with nothing worth paddling out for. The pattern is weak and the wind is messy, so keep the board in the rack.
The one bright spot in the whole 16-day window is Monday, August 17th morning at Cabo Lastres (point). That’s the only time the forecast steps up from a total write-off. We’re looking at a small but clean 3ft swell rolling in from the NW, with a period of 7 seconds. The wind goes glassy, and that’s a massive win for a point break – it’ll be smooth as a mirror. I won’t lie, the energy is weak (95), but for a point wave, that glassy morning vibe will make it feel way better than the numbers suggest. If you’re an expert looking for a clean, mellow session, that’s your moment.
The rest of the period is pretty grim. The few days around August 6th and 7th show a slight bump in swell (up to 4ft from the NNW) with moderate energy (200), but the wind is all cross-shore or cross-onshore, chopping it up. The point will be a mess. From August 15th to the 16th there’s another 3ft NW pulse, but again, the wind is not your friend. The only other time the surf gets a score of 1 is that Monday morning – everything else is a zero.
Bottom line: If you’re desperate, point your car at Cabo Lastres on the morning of August 17th for a glassy, small-wave session. Other than that, this region is in a deep slumber. It’s a quiet run, but it’s normal for this area – the forecasts can change, so don’t lose hope.
Rusty.

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.
