The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down this stretch.
The first day that’s worth paddling out is Wednesday, 2nd September. It’s small, around 2ft, with glassy conditions, but it’s just ordinary. Nothing to write home about. The real deal starts to fire up on Thursday morning, 3rd September. We’re looking at 1ft of swell from the SSW, but that period is a long 20 seconds, so it’s a proper groundswell. That kind of energy really suits a reef and point setup like Morro Negrito. Water temp is about average for this time of year.
The standout window is Friday, 4th September, through Saturday, 5th September. Friday morning is flat calm, glassy, with 2ft of SW swell at 18 seconds. That’s clean, lined up, and the energy is moderate (362). Saturday morning is even better – 3ft of SW swell, 16 seconds, and dead calm. That’s the session to circle. The energy is a touch higher at 381 (moderate), and you’ll be surfing some real nice, clean lines. If you can only get wet once, make it Saturday morning.
After that, the swell drops back a little but stays rideable. Sunday, 6th September, has 2ft of SW swell, with glassy conditions all day. The period drops to 15 seconds, but it’s still a decent groundswell, and the energy is moderate (226-235). A solid, fun day.
Monday, 7th September, it’s 2ft of swell, period down to 14 seconds. The energy is still moderate (180-240), and the morning is glassy, so you’ll get some clean, if smaller, waves. Tuesday, 8th September, is small at 1ft, but that 18-second period on Tuesday morning gives it a bit of punch. The energy is 212 (moderate), and with glassy winds, it’s worth a paddle.
From Wednesday, 9th September, through Thursday, 10th September, we’ve got a consistent run of 2ft to 2ft SW swell, periods between 16-18 seconds, and mostly glassy mornings. The energy stays in the moderate range (256-301). Not the biggest, but clean and consistent. Friday, 11th September, is similar, with 2ft and glassy conditions in the morning.
Then we hit a dry spell. From Saturday, 12th September, through to the end of the forecast on Thursday, 17th September, the swell drops to 1ft or less, and the energy gets weak, dipping below 100 on some days. The period is decent on a few days, like 19 seconds on Monday, 14th September, but the size is just too small to get excited about. The last day, Thursday, 17th September, has a tiny 0.7ft swell with a very long 24-second period, which is more of a ripple.
Best call: Saturday morning, 5th September. Glassy, 3ft of SW swell, 16-second period, moderate energy. That’s clean, fun, and the best of the run. Friday morning, 4th September, is a close second. Crowds are possible at Morro Negrito, so get there early for the good ones.
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.
