The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the table for Cibratel.
Honestly, this is a pretty quiet stretch for the next 16 days. Nothing’s firing with real power or consistency. We’re looking at a long run of mostly small, weak, and ordinary surf. The overall energy just never gets going. The best you can hope for is a few clean windows where the wind drops off and the waves become rideable, but you’ll have to be patient.
Friday, July 31st kicks things off with tiny 0.7ft swell from the SSE, period 14 seconds. The energy is weak (41). But the morning is glassy with a slight air – that’s the only saving grace. It’s small, but clean. Not worth getting excited about though. The afternoon gets choppy with a cross-onshore breeze.
Saturday, August 1st morning is the real standout of the whole period. Winds go perfectly glassy, calm. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the ESE. The period is short at 6 seconds, so it’s a weak little windswell, but the combined energy is still moderate (85). For a beginner plus break, this is a decent combination of small, clean waves and no wind. It’s likely the best you’ll see. The crowds are listed as “often,” so expect company.
The following days drop off again. Sunday, August 2nd morning is glassy with 2ft, but the period is still short. Monday, August 3rd morning is glassy but only 2ft. Tuesday, August 4th morning is glassy with 2ft, energy 72. Wednesday, August 5th morning goes glassy with 1ft, longer 11-second period, but the energy is weak (70). Thursday, August 6th is windy and poor. Friday, August 7th morning is glassy again with 2ft, energy 69. Saturday, August 8th morning is glassy, 2ft, energy 95. Sunday, August 9th morning is glassy, 1ft, energy 47. Monday, August 10th has light rain and gentle winds, not good.
Then on Tuesday, August 11th, the swell tries to push up. The morning sees 3ft swell from the SSE, period 8 seconds, with moderate energy (144). But the wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy. The afternoon jumps to 4ft from the SSE, period 12 seconds, and the energy strengthens to 429 (strong). That’s the biggest swell of the whole run, but the wind is still cross-onshore and the conditions are poor. It’s messy.
Wednesday, August 12th morning goes glassy with 2ft, energy 149. Better. Thursday, August 13th morning is glassy with 3ft from the ESE, period 7 seconds, energy 148. That’s a clean, small wave again. Friday, August 14th morning is glassy, 2ft, energy 97. Saturday, August 15th morning is glassy, 3ft from the SE, period 9 seconds, energy 137. Another clean option.
The honest truth is, the water temp doesn’t have any anomaly noted, so it’s about average for the time of year. And the best wave on offer is that Saturday morning, August 1st, with the glassy conditions and 3ft ESE swell. The only other decent windows are the glassy mornings on the 12th, 13th, and 15th. If you’re a beginner, those mornings are your best bet. For anyone else, it’s a long, flat wait.
Rusty.

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