The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya live from the lineup. Let's get into it.

We're lookin' at a stretch that's got a bit of a slow start, but patience is gonna pay off. The swell is keepin' things small for a while, but the quality of the waves, when they come, is where it's at. The standout sessions are the ones with the glassy, clean conditions.

The first real shout is for Wednesday morning, September 9th. The wait is over. Morro Negrito is gonna see a clean 2ft swell from the SSW, with a long period of 16 seconds. That's a groundswell, and it's gonna wrap in nicely. The wind is glassy, dead calm from the WSW at 3 mph, so you're lookin' at perfect, clean faces. The overall energy is moderate (239), but the shape is gonna be there. This is a reef and point setup, so that long period will be a dream. This is your best bet for the early part of the outlook.

Friday morning, September 11th, is another one to circle. The wind is flat calm, 0 mph from the SSE. Same 2ft SSW swell with a 16-second period. The water is about average for this time of year, so no wetsuit drama. It's a small window of magic, but the quality is undeniable.

Now, we hit a bit of a lull. The mornings from Saturday the 12th through to the 19th are mostly surfable but ordinary. The swell drops right off, and the energy is weak to moderate. There's a couple of glassy mornings, like Sunday the 13th with a tiny 1ft swell, but it's not gonna get the heart racing.

Things start to build again toward the end of the run. Sunday morning, September 20th, is another stand-out. The wind is glassy from the east, 0 mph, and the swell is 1ft from the SSW at a very long 19 seconds. The energy is back up to moderate (205). It's not big, but it's clean, it's classic, and it's for the patient surfer. Monday morning the 21st is a similar story, with a 1ft SSW swell and glassy conditions.

The real change-up comes on Tuesday morning, September 22nd. The swell jumps to 4ft from the WSW, with a short period of just 6 seconds. The combined energy is strong (393). The wind is light from the SSW, so it's glassy. This is a different kind of wave – a bit more pushy and chunky. It's not a beginner wave at 4ft, but for the advanced crew, it's gonna be a fun, punchy morning.

The biggest day of the outlook is Wednesday morning, September 23rd. The swell is 5ft from the WSW, with an 8-second period. That's a lot of power, with the energy reading at 403. This is definitely for the experienced surfers only. The wind is cross-on from the SSE at 6 mph, which might mess with the shape a little, but the power is there. Then, in the afternoon, the wind goes glassy from the NE, and the swell drops to 4ft from the SW, making for a much cleaner, more manageable session.

Finally, Thursday morning, September 24th wraps it up. A clean 5ft swell from the SW at 8 seconds, with glassy conditions. The energy is strong (303). It's a solid way to end the forecast.

Overall, the best of the best are the glassy mornings on September 9th and 11th for the purest, cleanest waves, and the bigger, more powerful mornings on the 22nd and 23rd for the advanced crew looking for a push.

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.
