The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu.
We're looking at Morro Negrito, a reef and point set-up that's got a knack for holding southwest swell. This is a spot for the advanced crew, and it's a consistent one, so it's not going to tease you. The water’s sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick steamer at home.
The first real standout is Friday morning, September 4th. We've got a clean 2.3ft SW groundswell, with a period of 18 seconds, rolling in from the optimum direction. The combined energy is sitting at 362 (moderate), and the wind is dead calm, glassy, from the ESE. That's a recipe for some clean, long lines off the point. It's a touch big for a beginner, but for the advanced crew, that’s a solid session.
The run of good conditions continues. Saturday morning, September 5th, is another beauty. The swell is a tick bigger at 3.0ft from the SSW, with a 16-second period, and the combined energy is up to 474 (moderate). It's dead calm, glassy. This is the pick of the entire outlook. The swell is a bit more size, the energy is solid, and the wind is perfect. Expect some clean, punchy waves.
We’ve got a few more mornings with glassy conditions and small, clean surf through the week, but the energy drops off. The standout is definitely that first weekend. Keep in mind, this spot can get crowded sometimes, so get out there early.
After the first week, the swell takes a definite holiday. We’re looking at a long stretch of days with small, weak waves. The combined energy drops into double digits, and the swell height hovers around 1.3ft to 1.6ft. It's surfable, but it's ordinary. The wind stays light and glassy on most mornings, but the lack of push means it's a struggle. The period hangs around 12 to 14 seconds, so it's not total junk, but you'll be working for every ride. This lull lasts from about the 12th of September right through to the 19th. The 18th of September morning sees a bump in period to 21 seconds, but the swell is still tiny at 1.3ft, so it's a tease.
Friday morning, September 4th and Saturday morning, September 5th are the clear winners. Get on them.

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.
