The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, lookin’ at the next 16 days for Morro Negrito. It’s a real mixed bag, mostly small stuff with a few clean windows.
The overall vibe is small swell – knee to waist high for most of it. The water’s warm, sittin’ at 86°, a touch warmer than average for September. You’ll be in trunks.
Tuesday the 15th kicks it off with a glassy morning, 0.4m SW swell. That’s a long 18-second period, so the lines are clean but tiny. The combined energy is weak (106). Tuesday afternoon bumps to 0.6m from the SSW, still glassy, with energy at 237. That’s the best session of the first couple days – clean, fun little waves.
Wednesday the 16th morning has a cross breeze, but the afternoon goes glassy again with 0.6m SSW. Thursday morning is pure glass with the same size, but the afternoon gets cross-on wind.
There’s a dry spell from Friday the 18th through the 24th. Waves stay around 0.4m with mostly poor wind or onshore chop. The glass-off mornings are there, but the waves are just too weak.
Tuesday the 22nd morning stands out: 0.5m SW swell, 16-second period, glassy, and energy at 241. It’s the best combo of clean conditions and a little push in the whole run.
Then things get weird. Thursday the 24th afternoon shows a sudden jump to 1.4m SW swell, but the period tanks to 7 seconds – short-period windswell. Onshore wind kills it. Friday the 25th morning has 1.3m from the west, period 8 seconds, with cross breeze. That’s moderate energy (369), but it’s messy and drifty – more kite-surfing territory than paddle surfing at this exposed reef and point. Too big and bumpy for beginners, too.
After that, it drops back to 0.4m for the last few days, with a few glassy windows on Monday the 28th morning and afternoon.
Best on offer: Tuesday morning the 22nd – 0.5m SW swell, 16-second period, glassy, energy 241. It’s the cleanest little wave of the whole run. Tuesday afternoon the 15th is the other decent call: 0.6m SSW with glass.
Otherwise, this is a small-swell period. The 24th-25th have some size, but the wind and short period make it a messy, expert-only affair.
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.
