The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the Ingrina forecast for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a real dry spell on the cards. The whole 16-day window is basically a bust for any decent surf. The first recommendation doesn’t even show up until the 21st of July, and even then, it’s a massive letdown. From the 21st right through to the 5th of August, there’s nothing but tiny, weak waves. The combined swell energy barely cracks double digits, sitting at a measly 4 on the 21st, and it’s all downhill from there. We’ve got long periods, around 14 seconds on that first morning, but with only 0.3 ft of swell, it’s just energy with no push. The winds are mostly cross-off or fresh offshore, keeping the water clean, but there’s nothing to ride.
This is a tough one for Ingrina. It’s a sheltered reef that needs a solid SW swell, and the charts are showing nothing but scraps from the south and west. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there. With such a long stretch of days with zero or near-zero wave height, it’s a real test of patience. The 5th of August morning shows a glassy calm, but again, no swell. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal for the area when the swell direction is wrong.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, you’ll be looking at flat, clean water. The stronger winds on the 3rd of August, with a 25 mph cross-off, might make the surface interesting, but for a paddle surfer, there’s just no wave to work with. Don’t get your hopes up; the forecasts can change, but right now, this is a solid two weeks of waiting.
Rusty.

Information about the Ingrina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ingrina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ingrina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ingrina 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 (Ingrina) 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 Ingrina 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.
Ingrina is 19 km (12 miles) from Lagos. If you plan a holiday in The Algarve, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lagos. Lagos has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
