The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk real talk about Morro Negrito. The next couple of weeks are all about small, clean surf – nothing heavy, but a few windows where it’ll be worth paddling out. The water is 87°F, which is way warmer than normal – about 4°F above the long-term average.
The first morning that’s really got my attention is Saturday, August 8th. You’ll find 2ft of swell from the SSW, with a 16-second period. That’s a nice, long groundswell. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and the combined energy is moderate at 238. For a reef and point break, that long period will wrap in sweet. Crowds might show up, but it’s worth it.
After that, it’s a few days of small, rideable but nothing special surf – ankle to knee high, mostly clean in the mornings.
Next up, Friday, August 14th morning – 2ft from the SSW, but with a very long 19-second period. The energy is up at 255, and it’s glassy calm. This is the kind of long-period groundswell that a point break like Morro Negrito loves. Saturday, August 15th morning is another one: 2ft from the SW, 16-second period, glassy, energy at 276. Those mornings are the picks.
Into the second week, it’s the same small, clean story. Wednesday, August 19th and Thursday, August 20th mornings both show 2ft SSW swells with 15-16 second periods, glassy conditions, and moderate energy. They’re a bit further out, so don’t book your trip just yet, but they look promising.
The surf never tops 2ft, so it’s all beginner-friendly. The afternoons get messy with onshore breezes, so mornings are the go. For the experienced guys, it’s not going to light your hair on fire, but for a smooth, fun session on a longboard, there are a few mornings that’ll deliver.
Get on it early, and enjoy that bathwater.

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.
