The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. Only one break on the menu: Cibratel. It’s a beginner-plus beach, breaks pretty much all the time, but most of this run is gonna be flat or junk. Water temp is about normal for August.
First week and a half is quiet. From Sunday August 2nd through Monday August 10th, it’s mostly ankle-high dribble with poor conditions. There’s a glassy morning on Tuesday the 4th but only 1 ft of swell and weak energy—not worth paddlin’ out for. Wednesday the 5th morning pops to about 2 ft from the SSE, 11-second period, glassy, energy moderate at 111. Surfable but real ordinary.
Then Sunday the 9th afternoon throws up a 6 ft pulse from the S, period short at 8 seconds, cross-on wind, and strong energy at 637—biggest of the whole run, but the wind ruins it. Marginal at best.
The real standout lands on Tuesday August 11th. Tuesday morning: 4 ft from the SSE, period a juicy 14 seconds—proper groundswell. Glassy, calm wind, combined energy a strong 581. That’s gonna peel nice if the bank holds. Cibratel faces SE, and the swell’s SSE—close enough. This spot breaks very consistently, so you won’t be starin’ at flat water. The long period might make ’em a bit walled on a beach break, but at that size it’s fine for intermediates and up. Afternoon holds too: 4 ft, cross-off wind, still decent energy (483). Crowds are often here, so beat the rush.
After that, Wednesday the 12th morning has 3 ft from the SSE with a cross-on breeze—marginal. Then it fades quick. By the 13th and 14th we’re back to knee-high slop. Monday the 17th morning shows a little bump: 3 ft from the SE, 9-second period, glassy, energy 132—rideable but nothin’ to write home about.
So if you’re pickin’ a day, make it Tuesday the 11th. That glassy morning with long-period SSE swell is the only real highlight. Everything else is too small or too windy.

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.
