The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, checking in from the Morro Negrito zone. Right now, it's a flat spell, but we've got a long look ahead.
Honestly, for the next week and a half, the swell is tiny. We're talking about knee-high waves at best, mostly around 1 to 2 feet. The energy is weak, with combined energy values often sitting between 100 and 200 (moderate), but it's a long-period groundswell from the SSW, which is not the ideal direction for this spot. It's a reef and point setup that prefers swell from the SW. The water is a balmy 87°, which is a solid 4° warmer than usual for this time of year, so that's a nice surprise.
There's a decent stretch of glassy mornings from Monday the 14th through to the 20th, with light offshore winds at times, but the waves are just too small to get excited about. It's surfable, but only just. The afternoons often get a bit of onshore wind, making it choppy. For a few days around the 22nd and 23rd, the swell drops to almost nothing, with combined energy down in the 30s and 60s (weak). It's a proper lull.
Now, the part that has my attention is the last few days of the outlook. On Saturday the 26th, we see a whisper of something bigger. By Monday the 27th, we get a call for "expect good surf conditions" with a combined energy of 205 (strong) and a clean, glassy morning. The swell is a consistent 2 feet from the SW, which is the perfect direction for Morro Negrito. The period is 18 seconds, a proper long-period groundswell that will wrap around the point and reef beautifully. The wind is light from the ESE, keeping it clean. That Monday morning session on the 27th is the standout. It's a long way off, so don't book the flight yet, but it's a real promising sign after a long, quiet period.
For the rest of the time, it's a waiting game. The waves are small, but the wind is often good. It's not the kind of setup that would be good for kiting, just a patient paddler's 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.
