The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer for Morro Negrito.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, with a real mixed bag of tiny, ordinary waves and tricky afternoon conditions for the first week. The pattern is consistent: clean, glassy mornings with small, rideable swell, but the afternoons get messy with onshore wind and the risk of thunderstorms. The best bet is to be an early bird, because the windows of quality are short.
The standout period arrives around Saturday, August 8th. The morning of the 8th is where it’s at. We’ve got a clean 2ft SSW groundswell, a period of 16 seconds, and glassy conditions with clear skies. The combined energy hits 261 (moderate wave energy), and it’s the best call of the whole outlook. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
Another good morning to mark is Saturday, August 15th. That morning sees a 2ft SW swell with a very long period of 17 seconds, combined energy of 202 (moderate wave energy), and glassy conditions. It’s a solid, promising option, though still a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it.
There are a few other mornings with glassy conditions and knee-high swell, like the 31st of July, 1st August, and 3rd August, but the waves are just ordinary. The 12th of August morning has a tiny 1ft swell with a 19-second period, which is a very long period groundswell – that one might offer some cleaner lines on the reef or point, but with so little size, it’s a gamble.
For the most part, the afternoons are a write-off with cross-onshore winds and storm risks. The exception is Thursday, August 6th, where the afternoon stays glassy, but the swell is still only 1ft.
In summary, August 8th morning is your best shot. The 15th morning is a promising long-range look. The rest of the fortnight is a classic game of waiting for the clean windows and hoping for a little more juice.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
