The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for Morro Negrito.
We’ve got a nice little run of small, clean surf starting right away, but don’t expect any real size. The first two weeks are all about waist-high glassy waves, ideal for a longboard or a fish. The standout period is the first few days, with Thursday morning, 3rd September, kicking things off with clean 1ft glassy surf from the SW. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 86°, with a moderate combined energy of 218 – not a lot of grunt, but the conditions are pure. Friday morning, 4th September, is a beauty too – 2ft from the SW, glassy, and a bit more push with the energy at 362. Saturday morning, 5th September, is the pick of the early window: 3ft from the SW, glassy, and moderate energy at 394. That’s the best wave size on offer for the whole outlook, and with the wind dead calm, it’ll be clean as a whistle.
There’s a bit of a drop-off in the middle of the week, but we still get morning glass-offs. By the 10th of September, Thursday morning, there’s another 2ft SW swell with a period of 18 seconds – that’s a long-period groundswell, so it’ll have some shape and a bit of wait between sets. Perfect for a point break like Morro Negrito. The combined energy is 297, so it’s got some life.
The second week gets smaller and more inconsistent. The 16th of September and 17th of September have some clean 1ft to 2ft options, but the energy is dropping. The 17th of September Thursday morning has a very long period of 24 seconds on a 1.0ft SW swell, energy at 231, but honestly, that’s a whole lot of wait for a tiny wave. It’s more of a novelty for the die-hards.
The real heart of this forecast is the first five days. If you want a wave, get on it early. The south-west swell direction is exactly what this spot wants, and the mornings are giving us glassy conditions repeatedly. Crowds are possible at Morro Negrito as it’s consistent, but with such small waves, the crew might be thin.
So, to wrap it up: the best bet is Saturday morning, 5th September. 3ft of SW swell, glassy, moderate energy. That’s the day. The rest of the first week is solid for small-wave cruising, and after that, it’s just small and clean with a few longer-period swells that are better for the point than the beach.
Rusty out.
