The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Morro Negrito in feet and degrees.
The forecast kicks off meek. Monday afternoon has just 1ft of tiny, long-period swell and messy wind—no reason to paddle out. Tuesday morning the 25th shows a bit of life: 1ft from the SW, 16 second period, and the wind is glassy. Water temp is 87°, a touch warmer than typical. The energy is moderate (106). Surfable, but you’ll be hunting for the knee-high peelers.
Wednesday through Friday of that first week stays skinny, 0.7ft to 1ft, mostly glassy mornings but the energy is weak, below 100 at times. Not much to write home about.
Come Saturday morning the 29th, it gets interesting. 2ft from the SW, 16 second period, calm glassy wind. Energy jumps to 289. That’s a solid moderate pulse. The swell is coming from the optimum direction for this reef and point break. Clean, long-period lines.
Sunday morning the 30th is similar – 2ft, SW, 14 seconds, glassy again. Another window for smooth rides. The afternoons get a light cross-onshore breeze, so stick to the mornings.
Then a lull from Monday the 31st to Thursday 3rd September, with swell back to 1ft to 2ft on the glassy mornings, but energy drops off.
Now, Friday morning the 4th of September is the real standout. 2ft from the SW, 18 second period, glassy conditions, energy a healthy 361. That’s strong moderate energy with long-period groundswell. On this reef and point setup, it’ll be lined up and clean. Saturday the 5th follows with 2ft, 16 seconds, glassy again, energy at 295. That weekend is the one.
Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th keep the theme going, with Monday the 7th offering calm glass, 2ft SW, 15 seconds, energy at 292. Tuesday the 8th holds.
Crowds can roll through here sometimes, but on these cleaner mornings it’s usually manageable. The top pick is the 4th and 5th of September – solid groundswell, clean glass, and the reef will dish out some fun waves.

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.
