The Lowdown
Alright, mate. Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you—looking at the next sixteen days for our local zone, it’s a quiet stretch. Real quiet. The sort of flat spell that tests your patience. We’re starting with a gap of several days with absolutely no surf worth mentioning.
The first hint of anything rideable shows up on Friday the 18th in the morning at Focene or Baraonda. You’ll see a tiny 3ft of swell from the WSW, but the period is a short 5 seconds—that’s windswell, weak and wobbly. The combined energy is weak (44), so don’t expect any push. There’s a risk of thunderstorms, which might mess with the texture, though the light east-southeast breeze keeps it clean. Honestly, it’s surfable but very ordinary. That session fades fast, and by afternoon, it’s gone again.
After that, we’re looking at another long lull. Days and days of nothing doing—flat, clean mornings but no waves to speak of. The water temperature is sitting at 80°F, which is more than 5°F warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual, but with no swell to enjoy it, it’s just a warm bath.
The rest of the forecast through to October 1st stays the same story: tiny scraps of swell, period often under 6 seconds, and combined energy mostly in the single digits or low tens. The wind stays light or moderate, often cross-off or offshore in the mornings, but there’s nothing to ride. A couple of afternoons show a weak onshore breeze kicking up a tiny ripple, but that’s kite-surf territory, not paddle.
There is no standout day. No swell of any real size or quality. The best you can hope for is a marginal, poor-condition wave on the morning of the 18th, and even then, it’s a stretch. The consistency here is low, and this blank run is more normal for the area when the swell windows close up. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a time for fixing gear and watching the horizon.

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

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).
