The Lowdown
Alright, mates, gather 'round. Rusty here, and I've got the straight-up on your local surf outlook for Ingrina.
First off, let's be real – the next 16 days are a total bust for any kind of surf. We're talking a flat, dead patch from Monday, July 27th straight through to Tuesday, August 11th. There's just nothing to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at a chilly 65°, which is a whopping 5° colder than usual for this time of year – that's a seriously cold anomaly, so don't forget your extra rubber.
Now, Ingrina is a reef break that's inconsistent and sheltered, so a blank run like this isn't a huge shock. It needs a proper SW swell to wake up, and we're getting zero direction from the ocean. The few tiny bumps we see – like a 0.3 ft on the 31st of July or a 1 ft on the 1st of August – are just wind slop, not real swell. The combined energy barely registers (0 to 24), so it's not even worth a paddle.
The wind is mostly offshore or cross-off, which would normally be a dream, but without any waves it's just a waste of good conditions. Even the glassy period on the 11th of August offers nothing. If you're desperate for a session, you'd be better off kite surfing, but honestly, even that would be a struggle. The outlook is grim, but forecasts can change – it's just a dead spell for now.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts. Rusty out.

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.
