Alright folks, Rusty here, looking at the Mocambique forecast. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, with some real standouts and some windy, messy days you’ll wanna skip.
The ocean’s looking pretty active overall, with moderate to strong wave energy (380 to 2138). Water temp is sitting at a chilly 62°F, which is 4°F cooler than usual for this time of year – that’s a noticeable drop, so don’t be shy with the thick wetsuit.
The pick of the first week is shaping up for Saturday, July 11th. We’ve got a solid 5ft SE groundswell rolling in with a long period of 13 seconds and energy at 814 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-offshore, keeping the surf clean. This is the best combo of size and shape in the first week. The 5ft is pushing up into intermediate territory, but it’s manageable. By the afternoon, the swell eases slightly to 5ft, but still clean and fun.
Monday the 13th through to early Tuesday the 14th is a write-off for paddle surfing. The swell jumps to 7ft with strong energy over 1000, but it’s coming with a strong, lumpy cross-onshore wind. That’s kite-surfing weather, not a surfer’s paradise. Things clean up nicely though for Tuesday, July 14th. That morning we get a glassy 5ft swell from the SSE with offshore WNW wind at 3 mph. It’s clean and punchy for an early session.
After a few smaller, very ordinary days, the real standout is for Monday, July 20th. We’ve got a solid 7ft SE swell with very strong energy (1187) and clean cross-offshore winds. This is excellent surf, but at 7ft, it’s for experienced surfers. The afternoon swell bumps up to 10ft (energy 2138), which is huge and definitely for experts only, and the wind picks up but stays cross-offshore. The following Tuesday looks blown out with heavy rain and lumpy onshore winds.
Rusty.

Information about the Mocambique Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Mocambique provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Mocambique can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Mocambique 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 (Mocambique) 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 Mocambique 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.
