The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let me break down what we’ve got coming our way.

The next couple of weeks are gonna be a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a few windows where it’ll all line up. We’re starting off with some proper glassy conditions, and though the swell is small, the quality should be there. The water is sitting at a very warm 86°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year.

The real standout, and the one to aim for, is Wednesday afternoon (September 9th) at Morro Negrito. It’s an exposed reef and point setup, which loves a good SW groundswell, and we’ve got exactly that – a clean 1ft swell pushing in from the SSW with a long 16-second period. The wind is glassy, absolutely dead, so the face will be like a mirror. The combined energy is moderate at 227, and for a break this exposed, that long period will wrap in cleanly. It’s an advanced spot though, and with the quality on offer, expect crowds to be likely. This is your best bet for a proper session.

Thursday morning (September 10th) carries on that glassy feel, with another 1ft swell, period stretching out to 18 seconds – that’s a very long groundswell. The energy is a touch higher at 229. Again, a great time to be out there for someone who knows the lineup.

Friday morning (September 11th) offers another glassy window, with 2ft of SW swell at 16 seconds, and moderate energy (224). That’s a decent little bump, but things start to turn messy later in the day as the wind swings onshore.

After that first couple of days, the outlook gets pretty average. The wind becomes a problem, shifting cross-on or onshore for most of the following week, and the swell stays small to tiny. There’s a gap from Saturday through to about Wednesday the 16th where conditions are marginal at best, with onshore winds and risk of storms. The swell bumps up a touch around the 15th but the wind ruins it.

The second week doesn’t offer much to get excited about. There’s a quick look at Monday the 21st morning with a clean 1ft SW swell, but the period is still decent at 18 seconds. A late-season hopeful, but it’s far off and uncertain. For the most part, the wind is cross-on or choppy straight through.

So, in short, if you’re after something clean, get in the water Wednesday the 9th or Thursday the 10th. After that, it’s a waiting game.

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.
