The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, casting an eye over the next couple of weeks for the region. Let's break it down.
We're looking at a mixed bag to start, with a real sweet spot for the early birds before the character of the swell changes. The standout window is definitely the first few days, with clean, glassy mornings and long-period groundswell. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 86°.
Morro Negrito is the only break on the radar, and it’s a serious reef and point setup best suited for the advanced crew. It’s consistent, so it won't let you down, but it can get crowded.
The best of the best looks like kicking off Saturday, September 5th. It’s not the biggest, with a 3ft SW swell, but the period is a solid 16 seconds, bringing in some real energy (376). The wind is a light onshore breeze, so it’s a bit of a warm-up. The real magic hits Sunday, September 6th morning. We’ve got a 2ft SW groundswell with a 15-second period and glassy conditions from the ESE. That’s your ticket for clean, fun waves. The energy is still decent (228). Monday, September 7th and Tuesday, September 8th mornings keep the glassy theme going with clean, small surf, though the swell drops off a touch.
There’s a bit of a lull around the middle of the month. The mornings from Thursday, September 10th through to Sunday, September 13th are still offering glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny, just 2ft to 1ft, and the energy dips into the low triple digits. It’s surfable, but it’s a real knee-boarder’s paradise.
Now, look ahead to Wednesday, September 16th. The morning session brings a bit of life back. A 2ft SSW swell, 16-second period, and glassy conditions. The energy is back up to 201, which is promising. It’s a similar story on Thursday, September 17th morning with a light offshore breeze from the ENE, offering clean, small waves.
The final week sees a drop in energy, with the swell becoming very small and inconsistent. The morning of Sunday, September 20th has a 1ft SW swell with a long 19-second period, but the energy is weak (169). It’s not going to be one for the highlights reel.
The main takeaway? Don't sleep on the first week. The mornings are where it’s at. Get out there early for the glassy, clean conditions and that long-period SW groundswell. After that, it’s a waiting game for the next pulse.
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.

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.
