Alright folks, Rusty here, and I gotta tell ya, looking at the Lagide forecast for the next 16 days has me feeling a bit sorry for anyone with a paddle in hand. This is a tough run.
We start with absolutely nothing on offer. The first week, from July 6th right through to the 11th, is just a write-off. We're looking at tiny, onshore-chopped slop – swell heights barely reaching 3 ft, gusty winds pinning everything down, and combined energies are laughably weak (46 to just 195). The wave comment from the data says it all: "poor surf conditions" repeatedly. It’s a mid-winter lull with no energy.
We finally see a tiny flicker on Sunday the 12th. The morning session is the first time we even get a surfable tag. Swell bumps up to 4 ft, the wind goes light and cross-offshore, and the water cleans up. The combined energy hits 211, which is still weak, but at least it's something. Unfortunately, it’s all downhill again afterwards. The rest of the week sees more onshore winds and poor surf, with energy dropping back into the weak double digits.
The second week gets interesting, but not for the right reasons. Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th bring a big jump in swell, with the wave heights hitting 5 ft to 8 ft from the NNW. The combined energy rockets up to 757 on the Sunday morning (19th), which is strong energy. But here’s the kicker – the wind is howling onshore and the period is a short, weak 6 to 8 seconds. That’s a recipe for raw, closing-out, windblown chaos. The sets will be short and dumpy. For a beach and reef setup like Lagide, that’s not surfable; that’s just a washing machine. Honestly, for those days, this looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. No way I’m paddling into that.
So, the brutal truth? There are no standouts in this 16-day window. Not a single day where the stars align. We have a blank first week, a brief tease on the 12th that’s too small to get excited about, and then a week of big, messy, dangerous junk from the 18th onward. The forecast is consistent, but consistently poor. A look at the guidance confirms it: this is rated as an advanced-level break that is fairly consistent, but the *quality* just isn't there. This is a genuine dry spell.
Stay patient, lads. Forecasts can change, but for now, Lagide is on the bench.

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.
