Alright, this is Rusty. Let's look at what's coming up for Estaleiro Reef.

The early part of the outlook is a bit of a slow burn, dude. We're looking at a few days of small, clean waves, but nothing that's going to get you fired up. The real standout is a weekend window of glassy, long-period groundswell that's worth waiting for.

The first few days, from Wednesday the 8th through to Friday the 10th, are pretty ordinary. You're looking at small 2ft ESE swell, mostly 10-second periods, with morning light breezes keeping it clean. The combined energy is weak, sitting between 76 and 210. It's surfable, but it's not going to be memorable.

Now, hold onto your boardies. Saturday the 11th is the pick of the bunch. The wind goes completely glassy, zero wind, both morning and afternoon. We've got a solid 3ft of long-period groundswell from the ESE, with a 13-second period. That combined energy jumps up to a moderate 388. This is proper reef-swell, with that long period it'll stand up nicely here. Expect clean, peeling lines. It's an inconsistent break, so you'll have to be patient, but when a set comes through, it'll be worth it.

Sunday the 12th is also a solid call. The swell drops slightly to 3ft, but the period stays at 13 seconds, with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NW keeping the faces clean. The energy is still a healthy 296. Two solid days in a row.

Monday the 13th is a write-off for paddle surfing. The swell jumps to 6ft, with a short period of 7 seconds, and it's coming from the SSE. The energy is strong at 640, but the wind is onshore. The afternoon gets even worse, with a 8ft swell and 1182 combined energy – way too big for the average punter at this reef. This setup looks more interesting for the kite crew.

We get a bit of a lull then, with a few days of small, mixed-conditions surf. Tuesday the 14th is ordinary, Wednesday the 15th has a clean 4ft morning with a 12-second period (338 energy) and offshore wind, which is a nice little session. The following Saturday the 18th has glassy conditions but only 2ft waves.

Looking further ahead, Sunday the 19th of July shows promise with a clean 3ft ESE swell at 12 seconds, and a light cross-offshore breeze, giving us a combined energy of 249. The final few days in the forecast show clean, small waves, but nothing to write home about. The real action is this weekend.

Stay stoked.
Rusty.

Information about the Estaleiro Reef Surf forecast

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