The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking in on the local stretch. We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag on the horizon for the next couple of weeks, but there are a few windows where it’ll be worth paddling out.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday the 5th. The morning is looking like a standout with clean, glassy conditions at Miramar. The swell is a modest 3 feet out of the WNW, with a combined energy of (173) – moderate, but the complete lack of wind will make it feel better than the numbers show. Water temps are sitting at 68°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be comfortable in a spring suit. The cross-offshore breeze on Wednesday the 9th morning should also clean things up nicely, pushing that 4 feet WNW groundswell (period 12 seconds) into shape, with a combined energy of (379). That’s probably the best wave quality of the whole outlook, but the wind will be messy in the afternoons, so make it a dawn mission.
Looking further out, Sunday the 13th morning offers another glassy session with 5 feet of weak, short-period swell from the NW. The energy is there at (277), but the period is a short 6 seconds, so don’t expect much push. The following Monday the 14th morning is also looking clean with a glassy top and 4 feet from the same direction. For the most part, the afternoons are a write-off with cross-onshore winds killing the surface. The second week dries up fast, with nothing but choppy, poor surf on offer. The standout is definitely the Wednesday morning of the 9th – if you can get out, that’s your best bet.
Rusty.

Information about the Miramar Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Miramar provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Miramar can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Miramar 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 (Miramar) 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 Miramar 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.
Miramar is 5 km (3 miles) from the city of Canidelo. If you plan a holiday in Douro and Minho, look for hotels and other accommodation in Canidelo. Canidelo has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
