The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya from the Jaguay zone. Let's break down what we've got over the next couple of weeks.
You know, the first week or so is lookin' like a bit of a slow grind. The swell is just not organised, and the wind is mostly cross or onshore, so we're not getting that clean, lined-up surf we all want. The water is a real standout though, way warmer than normal for this time of year, comin' in at 68° – that's a solid 7° above average, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home for sure.
The first real chance to get excited comes around the morning of Thursday, July 25th. We've got a bit of a pulse from the SW, but it's tiny, only 1ft, and the wind is just a light cross-onshore. It's more of a "maybe there's a rideable ripple" kind of vibe. Honestly, the energy is weak (185) and it's not gonna be worth the paddle.
The whole outlook really hinges on the tail end of the run. We start seeing a bit more promise from the 27th of July onwards. The swell bumps up, and by the morning of the 28th of July, we're looking at 5ft from the WSW with a long period of 15 seconds. The energy is gettin' serious (941) and the wind is light and offshore – that's the gold right there. This is the real standout in the whole forecast. That 5ft mark is a touch solid for the beginners but for the rest of us, it's go time. The long period (15 seconds) means it'll be a proper groundswell, so it'll wrap in nicely and hold its shape. This is the one to mark on the calendar.
The morning of the 29th of July also has promise with 4ft from the WSW and a 13-second period, but the energy drops a bit. Then it fades out through the end of the month and into the start of August, dropping back to tiny, crummy waves with onshore winds.
So, for the best wave of the forecast, point your board at Jaguay on the morning of Sunday, July 28th. That's your window. It's not a guarantee this far out, but the signs are lookin' real good. The rest of the time, it's a lot of waiting.
Stay salty,
Rusty

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