Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk swell.

We’ve got a solid run of small but clean waves lining up, mostly out of the SSW. The real standout is Tuesday morning, July 7th – that’s the one to get excited about. Otherwise, it’s a steady diet of waist-high, glassy surf with a few windows of offshore wind.

First up is Friday morning, July 3rd, at Morro Negrito (Panama). It’s an advanced reef and point break that’s consistent and exposed to SW swell – perfect match on direction. Water temp is about average for this time of year. Swell is 3 ft from the SSW with a very long 16-second period – classic groundswell that wraps the point beautifully. Wind is light offshore from the ENE at 3 mph, so the surface will be clean. Combined energy is 295, which is moderate. This is small but high quality. Crowds can show up here sometimes, so don’t be shocked if a few others are out.

Saturday morning the 4th is glassy with a 2 ft SSW swell at 15 seconds (240 energy). Another clean, small day. The afternoon turns dead calm.

Sunday morning the 5th sees a light cross-off breeze from the ENE at 3 mph, keeping it clean with 2 ft swell (14 sec, 211 energy). The afternoon gets bumpy with cross-on W wind.

Monday morning the 6th is glassy again, 2 ft SSW at 16 seconds, energy up to 340. Nice little push.

The best session is Tuesday morning, July 7th. Dead calm, glassy, 3 ft SSW swell with an 18-second period, energy at 530 (moderate to strong). This is the big one – biggest waves of the run, perfect conditions, long period groundswell peeling down the point. The afternoon gets onshore, so it’s a dawn patrol mission.

Wednesday morning the 8th stays clean, glassy, 3 ft SSW (16 sec, 412 energy). Afternoon gets a dirty WSW wind, so get it early.

Thursday the 9th, glassy morning again, 3 ft SSW (15 sec, 277 energy). Some rain around, but wind is calm.

Friday the 10th through Sunday the 12th sees the swell drop to 2 ft to 2 ft, with some glassy windows and onshore afternoons. Mornings are still worth it.

From Monday the 13th, we’re down to 1 ft to 2 ft swell for the next week. That’s pure log or foil territory. Energy drops below 200. There are glassy mornings almost every day though, so if you’re chasing a tiny, clean wave, there’s options. The standout in this low period is Tuesday afternoon, July 14th: 1 ft but a very long 17-second period, 200 energy, glassy. Ultra-smooth.

Wednesday the 15th morning is glassy with 2 ft (15 sec, 148 energy). The afternoon goes poor. The pattern holds small and clean in the mornings through the 18th.

So, a two-week stretch with no real size, but a ton of clean, glassy windows. Good for a skilled surfer on small-wave gear. Beginners will be fine on the 1 ft to 2 ft days. Only the 3 ft Tuesday the 7th might push a learner a little, but it’s still mellow.

Rusty out.

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.
