The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next few days are a bit of a slow start. We’re looking at some small, weak energy rolling in, but it’s not gonna get your heart racing. The first real glimmer of hope shows up on Saturday morning, the 29th of August. That’s when we finally see a little bump in the swell.
The best bet on offer is Saturday morning, the 29th of August, at Morro Negrito. We’ve got a 2ft swell coming from the southwest, with a solid 16-second period. That’s some proper groundswell, and with a glassy, offshore wind from the south at just 3 mph, the surface is gonna be as clean as a whistle. The combined energy is sitting at a moderate 300, so there’s a bit of push to it. This is an advanced reef and point break, so it’s not for the faint of heart, but for those who can handle it, this is your window. The water is a balmy 87°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home.
After that, we’ve got a bit of a lull again. We’ll see some small, glassy windows in the mornings, but the energy is weak. The next real standout doesn’t come until Friday morning, the 4th of September. Another 2ft southwest swell, 17-second period, and glassy conditions with a light wind from the south. The energy is a bit stronger here at 340, and it’ll be clean. It’s a similar story on Saturday morning, the 5th of September, with a slightly bigger 3ft southwest swell, 16-second period, and glassy conditions. Energy is up at 375, so a bit more grunt in the water. Both of these mornings are worth a look.
The final mention goes to Wednesday morning, the 9th of September, with a 2ft southwest swell, 17-second period, and a glassy, calm morning. Energy is at 245. It’s not the biggest, but it’ll be clean.
Overall, there’s no huge swell in this window. It’s a series of small, clean groundswell windows with long periods, which is perfect for this reef and point setup. The 29th of August is the pick of the bunch, but the 4th and 5th of September are also promising. Don’t expect anything for beginners; the long period and the break itself demand experience.
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.
