The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Cabo Roche over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty flat spell we’re looking at. The swell just isn’t there for much of the period, and what does show up is tiny. The water’s sitting at a warm 73°F, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick wetsuit.
Monday the 7th of September has a bit of chest-high swell at 1ft from the west, with a period of 14 seconds, giving it a bit of long-period groundswell feel. The combined energy is weak (79). The morning has a light cross-offshore breeze from the ESE at 6 mph, making it clean. It’s surfable, but really ordinary. Afternoon turns onshore and messy, so the morning is your only window.
Tuesday the 8th is a no-go with a weak, short-period 2ft swell and cross-on winds. Wednesday the 9th sees the swell bump up to 3ft, but with a terrible period of just 5 seconds and a moderate cross-onshore breeze, it’s just choppy junk. Not worth a paddle.
Thursday the 10th is a tease – the swell drops to 2ft, but the afternoon is glassy with a south wind at 3 mph. The energy is tiny (22), so it’s barely a ripple. You’d be on a foamie if you bother.
From Friday the 11th right through to the end of the forecast, the swell is basically flat – 1ft and smaller. The winds are often offshore and strong, which would be a dream if there was any wave, but there isn’t. The combined energy drops to single digits for days on end. The period does stretch out a bit later on, reaching 12 seconds by the 22nd, but with a 0.3ft swell, that’s a lake.
The one slight glimmer is on the morning of Friday the 18th of September. The swell is 3ft from the WNW with a period of 6 seconds, which is short and weak, but the wind is glassy – calm, 0 mph. The combined energy is still low (77), and it’s described as “surfable but very ordinary.” It’s the best of a bad bunch, but that’s not saying much.
So, the honest truth? There’s no standout. The best on offer is that Friday morning the 18th with a clean, glassy 3ft wave, but it’s short-period and weak. For the rest, it’s a long stretch of tiny, flat conditions. If you’re a beginner, even the 3ft days are on the small side, but at least it’s clean. For anyone else, it’s a kite-fishing or swimming kind of week.
Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.

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