The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Morro Negrito in feet and degrees.
We’ve got a nice run of clean, glassy mornings on tap, with a steady southwest groundswell. Nothing huge, but plenty of push for the point and reef. The best window is from Thursday the 3rd through Monday the 7th, especially in the early hours.
Thursday morning the 3rd – you’ll find 1ft SW groundswell with a very long 20-second period. Offshore south wind at 3 mph, glassy. Energy is solid. Small but super clean. A morning for the soul.
Friday morning the 4th is the pick of the bunch. Swell builds to 2ft from the SW, still with a long 18-second period, and dead calm – zero wind. Energy is up to 362. Glassy, clean, and the point will be running smooth. That’s your session.
Saturday the 5th morning – 3ft SW, 16-second period, light southeast breeze, glassy. Energy is 381. Good size, still clean. Sunday the 6th morning is similar: 2ft SW, 15-second period, total calm again. Afternoon winds shift onshore, but the mornings are money.
Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th – swell drops back to 2ft and 1ft, but the mornings stay glassy. Worth a paddle, but not the same punch. Thursday the 10th brings a little bump: 2ft to 2ft SW, 18-second period, glassy conditions – a nice little surprise.
From Saturday 12th through to Tuesday 15th, it gets skinny. Swell drops to 1ft and 2ft, energy falls off. Mornings are still glassy, but you’ll be scratching for waves. Sunday 13th and Monday 14th are near flat.
Then on Thursday the 17th, we get a tease. Morning shows a 1ft SW swell with a 23-second period – that’s a very long period groundswell. Energy jumps to 250, conditions glassy. Don’t expect size, but the quality will be high. Keep an eye on this one – it’s promising but a ways out.
Water temp is about average for the time of year. No surprises there.
Morro Negrito is an advanced reef-and-point break, and sometimes it gets a crowd. But on these small, clean mornings, especially with that long period, you’ll have the place to yourself if you’re early. The southwest swell direction is exactly what this spot needs.
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.
