The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking.

Right off the bat, the first session on Tuesday July 28th is the standout of the whole run. Morro Negrito is going to be pumping with a clean 3ft SSW swell, but the kicker is the 18-second period – that’s pure groundswell energy, and it’s packing a punch with a combined energy of 557 (moderate). The wind is glassy, from the east at 3 mph, which is offshore for this SW-facing break, so the waves will be clean and lined up. This is a reef and point setup, so that long period swell will wrap in beautifully. It’s an advanced break, so it’s not for the faint-hearted, but if you’re experienced, this is the morning to be in the water. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

Wednesday morning the 29th drops a notch. Still a 3ft SW swell, but the period drops to 16 seconds and the energy is down to 372 (moderate). The wind stays glassy offshore from the ESE, so it’ll still be clean, but the drop in quality is noticeable. Afternoons turn onshore and messy.

Thursday the 30th morning sees a smaller 2ft SW swell with a 14-second period and energy down to 215. The wind is dead calm, glassy, so it’s clean but the swell is fading. It’s surfable, but nothing special.

From Friday the 31st morning through to the end of the first week, the swell drops to 2ft and then 2ft, with energy falling to around 100-130. The period shortens, the waves are weak, and most sessions are just ordinary or poor. The wind is mostly light and glassy in the mornings, but the swell is just too small to get excited about. There’s a long gap of poor conditions here.

Into the second week, things stay flat. From Monday August 3rd through to Thursday the 6th, the swell is 1ft or less, with energy below 100 (weak). The mornings are glassy, but there’s no power. This is a dry spell.

Friday August 7th morning sees a tiny 1ft SW swell, but the period jumps to 18 seconds again, with energy of 129. The wind is dead calm, glassy. The waves will be small and clean, but with that long period, it’s more of a longboard or funboard session on the point. Not a standout.

Saturday August 8th morning shows a slight uptick: 2ft SSW swell, 16-second period, energy of 260 (moderate). The wind is light and glassy from the SW. It’s decent, clean, and the swell is a bit more than the previous days, but it’s still under 3ft. It’s a good morning, but not a classic.

The rest of the second week is more of the same: small swell, glassy mornings, but the energy is weak and the waves are small. The best on offer is the very first session on Tuesday July 28th. The crowds are listed as “sometimes” at Morro Negrito, so you might have a few others out, but for that quality early, it’s worth it.

Rusty.

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.
