The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the long-range look for Cibratel. We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there’s some hope on the horizon if you’re patient.
Right off the bat, don’t get too excited about the next few days. The surf is small and pretty ordinary. We’ve got a bit of a gap here with no real standout action until we get into the second week. From Monday the 7th right through to Monday the 14th, it’s mostly tiny waves and poor conditions. There are a few glassy moments on Tuesday the 8th with 2ft SSE swell, but the wave energy is weak (163), and it’s just not worth getting wet for anything special.
Things start to shift on Monday the 14th afternoon. The swell kicks up to 7ft from the SSE with a period of 13 seconds. The energy jumps up to 2535 – that’s a lot of power in the water. However, the wind is a light cross-onshore, so it’s not going to be perfect, but it’s at least worth a look if you’re experienced.
Now, the standout. Tuesday the 15th morning is your best bet. The swell is a solid 6ft from the SE, and the wind is glassy out of the WNW. That’s clean conditions for Cibratel. The combined energy is 1095, so there’s plenty of push. This is excellent surf for experienced surfers – the 6ft height is manageable for most, but with that period, it’ll have some punch. The water temp is about 70°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can probably leave the thick rubber at home. This is the one to aim for. After that, the swell drops off again through the rest of the week, with small, clean but weak waves on Wednesday and Thursday mornings. From the 18th onwards, it’s back to small, choppy onshore slop, so don’t hold your breath for the weekend.
Stay patient, that Tuesday the 15th session is the real deal.
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.
