Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lagide over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what Lagide is offering up over the next couple of weeks. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it—this is a grim run. A long quiet spell, then a messy, blown-out pulse.
Water temp is about 63°, which is just a touch under average for this time of year.
It starts off real slow. From Wednesday the 8th of July to Friday the 10th, it’s all onshore wind, small weak swell, and poor conditions. Nothing worth suiting up for.
Saturday the 11th of July gives us a tiny break. Early morning, the wind goes glassy. Swell is 0.5m from the NW, with a period of 11 seconds. Energy is moderate (105). It’s surfable, but just barely. Sunday the 12th is similar—glassy dawn, 0.6m NW swell, period 9 seconds, energy at 122. Clean and quiet, but weak.
Then we hit a real dead zone. From Monday the 13th through to Saturday the 18th, it’s mostly tiny waves, weak energy, and messy wind. A few glassy mornings appear with swell barely reaching 0.3m. Don’t bother.
Now, from Saturday the 18th afternoon, the swell really starts to build. By Sunday the 19th, we’ve got 1.9m to 2.1m swell from the NNW, short period of 7 seconds, and strong energy (432 to 487). But the wind is a solid onshore breeze at 15 mph. It’s powerful, but rough.
Monday the 20th of July brings 2.4m to 2.5m from the NNW, period 8 seconds, with energy hitting 886. Wind is still onshore. This is heavy and ugly. Experts only.
Tuesday the 21st is the peak. Swell hits 2.5m from the NNW, period 9 seconds, and energy tops out at 998. The wind is a fresh onshore breeze at 18 to 22 mph. This is the biggest swell of the whole outlook, but the wind makes it a total mess. For a beach and reef spot like Lagide with that much onshore wind, you’re looking at a better day for a kite than a paddle board. Only the hardcore experts might find something, but quality will be low.
Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd stay big—2.1m to 2.4m from the NNW, period 9 seconds, with energy still in the strong zone (641–486), but the onshore wind never lets up. Just a long, powerful, messy stretch.
The standout: If you’re really keen, the best bet is those glassy mornings on Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th of July. Tiny, clean, and quiet. For real size, Tuesday the 21st has the biggest swell (2.5m, NNW) but the onshore wind wrecks it. It’s a raw, angry ocean that day.
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.
