The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here again, same forecast, just in feet and knots for those who think that way.
So, Morro Negrito is looking at a run of small but clean waves if you’re on it early. The water is a very warm 86°F, which is about 4°F above normal for this time of year – that’s noticeably warmer than average.
The real standout is Tuesday the 8th morning. Swell is a tiny 1ft from the SSW, but it’s got a very long period of 18 seconds. Combined wave energy is moderate at 211. Wind is from the WSW at just 3 mph, glassy as glass. This is a reef and point break, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in smooth and clean. It’s not big, but the quality will be top-shelf.
Wednesday the 9th morning is nearly identical: 2ft SSW swell, 16-second period, glassy with a 3 mph WSW breeze, energy at 239. This is your best bet for the whole outlook – small, perfect, and uncrowded.
Friday the 11th morning also delivers: 2ft SSW swell, 16-second period, dead calm with no wind, energy at 216. Another beauty morning for a longboard.
The afternoons are a total bust – storms kicking up and a light onshore breeze turning it messy. Stick to first light.
From Saturday the 12th onwards, the swell drops off hard. By Sunday the 13th, energy is down to 57 and the swell is just 1ft. Still glassy some mornings, but the waves are small and weak. By Monday the 14th, it’s a paltry 0.7ft with a 19-second period – surfable but nothing to write home about.
The second week is all tiny swells, mostly under 2ft, with glassy mornings but no real power. The afternoons are consistently poor with onshore winds. No real standouts after the first few days.
Get out on the 8th, 9th, or 11th of September in the morning. Small but sweet, with that long-period groundswell working the reef and point beautifully. Miss that, and you’re waiting a while.

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