Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Figuera is serving up for the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a patchy outlook, with some good windows and plenty of flat spells.
The water is sitting at about 73°F right now, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.
The first real chance to get wet is Tuesday morning (July 7). There’s a 3ft groundswell from the south-east with a long 16-second period, giving it good energy. The combined swell energy is moderate at 756. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNE at 12 mph. It’s small but clean, and the south swell direction is exactly what Figuera likes. A solid little morning session.
Don’t bother with Tuesday afternoon – the onshore SW wind at 16 mph will wreck it.
The next standout is Monday afternoon (July 13). After a run of poor conditions, we get a decent pulse. Swell bumps up to 5ft from the south with an 11-second period, and energy ramps up to 759. The wind shifts to a light northerly at 6 mph blowing cross-offshore. The report says “very good surf conditions.” This is the pick of the first week – some size, clean, and light wind. Intermediate surfers, this is your slot.
Friday morning (July 10) is worth a mention too – a 3ft south-east swell with a 14-second period and clean cross-offshore wind (NE 12 mph), but it’s small. A low-key option.
Into the second week, it’s very quiet. Sunday morning (July 19) brings a tiny 1ft south swell with an extremely long 20-second period, but wave energy is low at 157. Wind is clean offshore from the ENE at 9 mph. For those who love long-period groundswell, you might get some glassy lines at the point, but expect long waits.
The last possible call in the window is Monday morning (July 20). Swell hits 4ft from the east, with a short 7-second period. The offshore wind (ENE 12 mph) will keep the surface clean, but with that short period, it’ll be a bit ragged. Combined energy is 273 – weak to moderate. A fun log session, maybe.
Overall, Figuera is not on fire. The clear top pick is Monday afternoon (July 13), with Tuesday morning (July 7) as a solid backup. The rest is small, weak, or blown. Kite surfers might find the onshore afternoons with a bit of wind and 3-5ft swell more entertaining than paddle surfing.
Stay tuned, the forecast can always shift.
Rusty.

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