The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for Cabo Roche over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with ya – it's a tough stretch. The forecast is looking pretty bleak for a proper surf session for the majority of this 16-day window. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly junk, and the waves are gonna be a real struggle. We're looking at a long, dry spell with no real recommendations for a solid surf until the very end of the period.
The water is sitting at 74°F with a touch warmer than normal anomaly, so as far as comfort goes, you won't be shivering, but you'll be bobbing around on a lot of nothing.
The first sign of anything remotely rideable doesn't show up until Friday, July 24th. The morning is your best bet with a clean 4 ft swell from the WNW and a light offshore breeze from the ESE. The combined energy is weak at 93, but it's the cleanest we've seen. You'll get a few crumbly, weak waves, but it's a far cry from good.
Then, on Saturday, July 25th, the morning looks even more interesting. We've got a glassy, dead-calm surface with a 4 ft swell from the WNW. The combined energy bumps up to a moderate 131, which is the highest we'll see. The swell is small, but with zero wind, it could be a rewarding session for the patient surfer. It's the standout of the whole forecast, but it's still not a classic.
The rest of the window is a write-off. After Saturday, the wind goes back onshore or cross-on, the swell stays small, and it’s a messy, choppy scene. The long period on the 26th and 29th might sound good, but with the wind howling and the swell tiny, it's not going to produce anything worth paddling out for.
Bottom line: if you're desperate, set your alarm for the mornings of July 24th or 25th. Otherwise, find something else to do.
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.
