Alright, let’s get down to it. We’re talking about Morro Negrito – a reef and point break that really lights up when the swell comes from the SSW. Right now, the water’s sitting at 86°F, which is about 4°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s unseasonably warm. You won’t need a thick suit.
The best window is right at the start. Sunday morning July 5th is a beauty: 2ft of SSW swell with a 14-second period, glassy calm winds out of the SE at 3 mph. The combined energy is moderate at (209), and with that long period, the waves will have some real shape and glide. It’s not big, but it’s clean and fun. Crowds can show up here, so get in early.
Tuesday morning July 7th is the real standout of the whole run. You’ve got 3ft of SSW swell with an 18-second period – that’s a proper groundswell with real energy, reading (530). Winds are dead calm, glassy. It’s still only a smallish wave size-wise, but that period will give it plenty of punch and nice long lines. This is the morning to aim for.
Monday the 6th and Wednesday the 8th through Saturday the 11th all offer clean mornings: 2ft to 3ft SSW swell, glassy or very light winds, periods from 15 to 18 seconds. Energy stays in the 200 to 400 range. Solid, reliable surf.
From Sunday the 12th afternoon onward, the afternoons turn weedy – risk of storms, onshore winds, and choppy conditions. Mornings stay glassy but the swell drops to around 2ft, and the energy gets weak – by Thursday the 16th you’re looking at 1ft waves with 13 seconds and energy down to (98). There’s no big empty gap, just a steady fade. The last half-decent morning is Sunday July 19th with 2ft of 16-second SSW swell and glassy wind, energy at (163), but it’s just rideable, not a highlight.
First week’s the winner. Sunday 5th and Tuesday 7th mornings are the ones to circle.

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.
