The Lowdown
Hey team, Rusty here. Got a grim one for Figueiros. This whole 16-day outlook is pretty bleak, with no decent surf on the menu for a long time. From Wednesday the 15th right through that first weekend, it's all tiny, weak junk. The swell's non-existent and the wind is a mess. You’d be better off chasing a kite session than a surf.
The energy picks up a bit from Monday the 20th, but the quality is still rubbish. Swell heights are around 3ft to 4ft, but it's a short-period, onshore-looking NW swell that's just choppy and lumpy. This crappy pattern carries on for over a week.
The only window that even looks halfway interesting is Thursday the 30th of July. We get a morning swell of 5ft from the NW with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy climbs to 188. The wind is light and onshore from the NW. By the afternoon the swell hits 5ft, energy at 205, and the wind goes light cross-onshore from the W. It's still not good surf, but it's the best of a bad lot. This is a beach break, so with that short period expect it to be fat and lumpy. Only for the real keeners. Water temp is 69°, which is normal for this time of year. A tough run, boys.
Rusty.

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