The Lowdown

Alright, fellow surfers, Rusty here with the outlook for Morro Negrito.

Morro Negrito is looking pretty quiet for the next couple of weeks. Water temps are sitting at a very warm 86°F, which is over 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year. You’ll feel that when you’re sitting out there.

The first glimmer of something comes Saturday morning, September 12th. We’ve got a small, clean 2ft SW groundswell with a lovely 14-second period. The wind is glassy from the south, so the reef and point setup should be clean. The combined energy is 124 (moderate), so it’s not pumping. This spot is for advanced surfers only and it looks inconsistent, so you’ll need patience. Crowds are possible here.

Sunday the 13th is similar but smaller, with 1ft SW swell and glassy conditions. The energy drops to 81 (weak). It’s surfable, but you’re really scratching for a wave.

Monday the 14th is tiny, just 0.7ft of very long-period 19-second SSW groundswell. That long period might give it a bit of shape on the point, but the energy is weak at 71.

The standout looking ahead is Tuesday afternoon, September 15th. We see the biggest jump in energy, hitting 234 (moderate) with a 2ft SSW swell at 18 seconds. The wind goes glassy from the SW. That combination points to the best conditions of the whole window. It’s still small, but the quality should be there for a few fun ones. This is your best bet.

Wednesday the 16th morning stays similar with 2ft SSW swell and glassy conditions (182 energy), but the afternoon gets blown out by onshore wind. Thursday the 17th morning is a glassy 2ft SSW swell, with 197 energy, so it’s worth an early look before the wind turns.

After that, the pattern breaks down. From Friday the 18th through to the end of the month, we get a lot of onshore winds, cross-onshore junk, or very weak energy. The swell never really gets going above 3ft. For instance, on September 23rd afternoon, the swell jumps to 3ft but it’s short-period (6 seconds) and cross-onshore – that’s more of a kite-surfing situation than a paddle session. The end of the window on September 27th offers a clean 0.7ft glassy morning, but the energy is just 88 (weak).

Overall, if you can get out Tuesday afternoon the 15th, that’s your shot. Otherwise, it’s a lean run for Morro Negrito.

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.
