The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Well, I’ve had a look at the charts for Lagide, and I gotta be straight with ya – it’s a tough run ahead. The first week is basically a write-off with onshore winds and messy, poor conditions. We’ve got a glimmer of hope further out, but you’ll need patience.
Right now, we’re looking at a long stretch of northerly winds hammering the coast. Tuesday the 9th kicks off with a 6ft NW swell, but that 30 km/h northerly is blowing straight onshore, turning it into a washing machine. Combined energy is moderate at 381, but the quality is just not there. This pattern sticks around hard through the whole first week – Wednesday the 10th brings a 6ft NNW swell with 575 energy, Thursday the 11th has 5ft, and it’s all blown out. The water is sitting at 66°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year.
We finally see a break in the misery on Monday, the 14th of September. For the morning session, the wind drops to a glassy 5 km/h from the north, and we get a solid 5ft NW groundswell with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is a solid 604, and the conditions are set to be glassy. That is the standout of the whole forecast – clean, lined-up waves. This is the one to circle on the calendar. The water temp is a bit chilly, but that’s a small price to pay for clean sets.
After that Monday morning window, it’s back to the grind. The wind swings onshore again through the rest of the week and into the second week. From the 15th to the 24th, the swell drops off significantly, mostly hanging around 2ft to 3ft, with a mix of WNW and NW swell, but the onshore winds kill any quality. There’s a brief moment on Wednesday the 23rd morning with an easterly cross-off breeze and a tiny 2ft W swell, but the energy is weak (135) – honestly, it’s just ordinary.
The long-range stuff (the third week) has a few pulses of small, weak swell, but nothing that gets the heart racing. The 22nd has a bit of WNW groundswell but the winds are messy, and the 24th has a little cross-off breeze but only 2ft of wave.
So, the bottom line: that Monday the 14th morning is your best shot by a mile. Get on it if you can. For the rest, it’s a waiting game. This coast can turn around quick, but right now, it’s a tough stretch.
Rusty.

Information about the Lagide Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Lagide provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lagide can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lagide 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 (Lagide) 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 Lagide 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.
Lagide is 5 km (3 miles) from Peniche. If you plan a holiday in Peniche, look for hotels and other accommodation in Peniche. Peniche has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
