The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for waves. We’re lookin’ at a long, dry run with hardly anything worth paddlin’ out for. The first real chance of any surf is a tiny window, and even then, it’s not gonna get the heart racin’.
The only spot on the radar is Lagide, a beach and reef set-up. It’s fairly consistent here, but that doesn’t mean much when the quality is this low. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no shock there.
We kick off on Tuesday, the 28th of July. There’s a tiny bit of swell in the morning – 4 ft from the NNW with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is weak at 330. The wind is a light cross-onshore, makin’ it a little bumpy. It’s nothin’ special, just marginal. The afternoon gets worse as the wind picks up and chops it out.
Wednesday the 29th is a write-off. Swell drops to 3 ft, then 2 ft, with onshore winds. Nothin’ doin’.
From Thursday the 30th right through to Tuesday the 11th of August, it’s a dead zone. We’re talkin’ day after day of tiny, weak swell, poor wind, and scores of zero. The combined energy barely cracks 100 most days, and when it does, it’s still a weak, messy affair. There’s a small blip on the 4th of August with a 3 ft swell from the WNW and a 10-second period, and the energy is 185 – still weak. The wind is light cross-shore that morning, so it might be glassy, but with waves that small, it’s barely a ripple.
The only standout, if you can call it that, is the afternoon of Tuesday the 11th of August. Swell climbs to 5 ft from the WNW, with a 10-second period. The combined energy hits 491 (moderate). But – and it’s a big but – the wind is a moderate cross-onshore, so it’s gonna be choppy and messy. That’s the peak of the whole forecast, and it’s still a poor call.
Wednesday the 12th of August brings a similar size, 5 ft from the NW with a 9-second period, and moderate energy (302), but again, onshore winds ruin it.
For a beginner, most of this is too small to bother with, and the one day it gets over 5 ft, the wind is junk. For an advanced surfer, there’s just no quality on offer. This stretch is a real dud. The set-up looks more interestin’ for kite surfing than paddlin’ on some of those windier days.
Keep your hopes up, though – it tends not to stay this poor for long, and forecasts can change.
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.
