The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Right now, things are flat and pretty ordinary. We’re looking at a gap of a few days with no real surf to get excited about. The first proper recommendation doesn’t roll around until the morning of Saturday the 19th.
The standout session of the whole run is Saturday the 19th, early. Cabo Lastres (a point break) is serving up a solid 7ft swell from the NNW with a period of 13 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell, full of energy (1575 combined energy). The wind is glassy, straight offshore from the ENE at just 6 mph. That’s as clean as it gets. The water temp is 69°, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit. This is excellent surf for experienced surfers – the size and power mean it’s not a day for beginners. The direction from NNW is a good match for the optimum NW for this break. Keep in mind the point setup will handle that long-period swell beautifully, giving you long, lined-up waves.
Monday the 21st is another one to circle. Morning again – glassy conditions with a light NNW breeze, and a 6ft NNW swell at 13 seconds. The energy is high (970) and the wind is perfect. This will be very good surf, a little smaller than Saturday but still with plenty of punch and clean faces. It’s a close second best.
After that, Tuesday the 22nd morning still has some glassy 5ft surf, but the energy drops off. From Wednesday the 23rd onwards, the wind gets messy – cross-shore and onshore breezes pick up, the swell gets mixed up, and the quality fades. By the time we hit the 28th, there’s a hint of a new glassy 3ft NNW swell, but that’s a long way out and less certain.
Overall, if you can only pick one session, make it the morning of Saturday the 19th. Monday the 21st is your solid backup. The rest of the fortnight is mostly a write-off for quality surf.
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.
