The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, talking surf for Cabo Roche.
Honestly, the next couple weeks are a tough one to call. There's a whole lot of nothing happening, and conditions are mostly messy. We don't have a single standout session, but I'll point out the one morning that might be worth a look if you're keen.
The whole stretch from this Sunday the 23rd through Friday the 28th of August is just poor. Swell is tiny, wind is onshore or cross-onshore, and it's choppy. The wave energy is weak, under 100. Not worth the effort.
The only decent moment comes Saturday morning the 29th of August. We get glassy conditions with a light east wind at 3 mph. The swell is a small 3 ft from the west with a short period of 6 seconds. It's surfable but very ordinary, scoring just a 1 out of 10. Combined energy is 67 – weak. You'd be out there for the calm, not the waves. Crowds can show up sometimes, but not on a day like this. Water temp is about 73°F, which is normal for this time of year.
After that, it's back to the same old story. From Sunday the 30th of August through Monday the 7th of September, it's all poor conditions. Some mornings are glassy, like the 3rd and 4th of September, but with swell heights of 0.7 ft and 0.3 ft, there's nothing to ride.
So, if you really want to get wet, Saturday the 29th of August is your best bet, but don't expect much. Otherwise, it's a long stretch of flat and ugly for Cabo Roche.
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.
