The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty again, with the same outlook in feet and Fahrenheit.
Right, listen up, this is Rusty. Let's get straight into it for Lagide.
Truth is, we're looking at a pretty grim run ahead. The data shows a whole lot of nothing for the next ten days, and even when the swell tries to push through, the wind just ruins it. There's a real gap with no worthwhile surf from the start all the way through to the end of the first week of August. The wind is just relentless, mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and it's going to make a mess of things.
The only thing that has a bit of potential, and I'm being cautious here, is a pulse that shows up around the 7th of August. But don't get your hopes up too high yet. The combined swell energy is strong, hitting 705 (moderate to strong wave energy) on the Friday morning, with a solid 8ft of swell from the NNW. But that's where it all falls apart. The wind is howling onshore at 19 mph from the N. That's a fresh breeze, and it's going to be a wind-blown mess. The Saturday morning of the 8th of August is similar, with 7ft from the NNW, but again, onshore wind at 16 mph. This is big, powerful, onshore slop. For a beach-and-reef setup like Lagide, this is more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle-surfing one. The period is a short 8 seconds, so the waves will be a bit crumbly and close together, making it hard work. For anyone who isn't an expert, that 7ft to 8ft swell is definitely too big, and the conditions will be downright hostile. The water temperature is sitting at 68°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so nothing unusual there.
Because of the terrible wind, the overall forecast is poor. The best you can hope for is a small window on the morning of the 4th of August, where the wind drops to a light breeze from the NW. The swell is only 3ft from the WNW, with a weak 129 combined energy. It's small and weak, but at least it might be a bit cleaner. But honestly, it's a desperate pick.
So, I can't give you a standout here. The only pulse of size is blown out, and the rest is tiny and wind-affected. A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area when the wind doesn't play ball. We'll just have to wait for the forecasts to 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.
