The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Lagide over the next couple weeks.
Straight off the bat, it’s a rough outlook. We’re looking at a long dry spell before there’s anything worth your time. The first real chance to get wet isn’t until Thursday, August 6th, and even that is barely worth mentioning.
From now until then, it’s pretty much flat-calm and onshore. Day after day of poor conditions, tiny swell, and nothing to get excited about. The water temp is sittin’ at a normal 68.2°F for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
Finally, on the morning of Thursday the 6th, we get a little flicker. Clean cross-offshore wind with a 2.3ft swell from the WNW at 10 seconds. Energy is moderate (128). It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary. It’s the kind of session you take just to get the stink off.
Next little bump comes Sunday the 9th. Swell picks up to 3.9ft from the WNW, 9-second period, and moderate energy (228). The catch? The wind is onshore from the N to NNW all day. It’s gonna be choppy and rough.
Then things get serious. Tuesday the 11th of August brings a big jump to 8.2ft from the NNW with an 8-second period. Energy shoots up to 676 (strong wave energy). By Wednesday the 12th, it’s even bigger – 8.2ft again, but with a 22 mph onshore wind and energy hitting 1097 (very strong wave energy). This is pure power. Only for experts. And with that howling onshore wind, it’s gonna be a mess.
The best chance for a proper session lands on Friday the 14th of August. The morning has a clean offshore breeze from the SSW with a 4.6ft swell from the NNW. Period is 8 seconds, with moderate energy (251). The wind will be light and clean, making it the cleanest window in the whole forecast. It’s not a perfect day, but it’s the best we’ve got. With the size and wind earlier in the week, that setup might actually look better for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
So, the one to mark on your calendar is that Friday morning, the 14th of August. Everything else in the second week is either too big, too windy, or just not there.

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.
