The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, pulling up the local picture for you.
First off, let's keep it real. The 16-day window for Cabo Roche is a tough one to call a surf trip for. There's no big, pumping swell on the cards. The combined wave energy stays weak, mostly well under 100, which tells you we're in for a long stretch of tiny, underwhelming surf. The only bit of decent news is that early on, the water temp is sittin' at a pretty standard 71°, so nothin' wild there for the time of year.
The action, if you can call it that, starts on Tuesday the 1st of September. Right out of the gate, Tuesday morning is the best it's gonna get for a while. We’ve got a tiny 0.7m (2ft) swell from the WNW, with a short 6-second period. The real kicker is the wind – glassy, with a light 3 mph breeze from the ESE. That'll make for clean, if small, conditions. The energy is weak, only 42, but a glassy morning on small waves is still better than a kick in the teeth. After that, it’s a big ol’ gap. From Tuesday afternoon all the way through to Wednesday the 9th of September, we're looking at a solid week of flat or near-flat conditions with poor surf across the board. Not worth paddling out.
Our next little glimmer comes on Thursday the 10th of September. Thursday morning gives us similar vibes to the start of the month. Another 0.8m (3ft) WNW swell, period of 6 seconds, and we're back to glassy conditions with a light 3 mph SW wind. It’s the same deal – small, weak energy (42), but clean. It's the only other decent window this spot sees.
After that, the outlook dries up again through the rest of the second week. The swell stays below 0.6m (2ft) with weak energy, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-on from the west, which is no good for quality surf at this exposed beach break. The setup is so consistently small and messy that for a lot of this period, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing. All in all, there are only two brief windows of surfable, glassy conditions, and they’re both for gutless ankle-snappers. It's a quiet period for Cabo Roche.
Stay patient,
Rusty

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.
