Table - best surf conditions forecast for Cabo Roche over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Cabo Roche.
Honestly, mate, it’s a tough stretch. The next ten days or so are pretty grim. We’re looking at a long run of poor surf conditions, with the swell energy barely ticking over – a lot of it weak, like in the teens and twenties (combined energy 21, 17, 36, 27). The swell is tiny, mostly around 2ft to 3ft, and coming from the west or west-northwest, but the wind is just a pain. It’s either cross-on or straight onshore, with a moderate breeze most days, keeping things choppy and messy. Not a single standout session in that first week.
There’s a bit of a gap in the action, but even then it’s nothing to get excited about. Around Friday the 17th, things finally get a little interesting. On Friday morning, the wind goes glassy, with a slight air, and the swell is 3ft from the west-northwest with a 6-second period. The combined energy is still only 59, so it’s weak, but for the first time it’s surfable, though very ordinary. Saturday the 18th morning offers a bit more promise with an offshore breeze from the east, light, and 3ft west-northwest swell (energy 48). That’s clean, but again, pretty weak.
The real, only highlight in this whole 16-day window is Sunday the 19th in the morning. Glassy conditions, calm wind, 2ft swell from the west-northwest with a 7-second period (energy 42). It’s small and weak, but glassy is glassy, and at Cabo Roche, that’s your best bet. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.
After that, it dies off completely. From Monday the 20th right through to the end of the period, the swell drops to 1ft, then 0.5ft, then 0.5ft, with energy down to single digits. It’s flat. A blank run like this is more normal for the area in this sort of weather pattern, so don’t hold your breath.
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.
