The Lowdown
Alright gang, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks at Morro Negrito.
The first few days are a slow burn. The water is a warm 87° – that’s more than 4° warmer than normal, so it’s like a hot tub out there. The energy on Sunday the 19th is only moderate (195), but with a stormy afternoon and onshore wind, it’s a write-off. Monday the 20th has a glassy morning with dead calm air, but the swell is a tiny 1ft, so it’s not really worth the wax.
Things start to get interesting on Saturday the 25th of July. The morning session is clean and glassy with a 2ft SSW swell and a long 21-second period. The energy is strong now (366), and that long-period groundswell is going to wrap around the reef and point. The wind is light offshore, so expect some glassy little lines. The afternoon gets a bit messy with a cross-shore breeze, so get on it early.
Sunday the 26th of July morning is another beauty. Glassy conditions, a 2ft SSW swell, still holding that 19-second period, and strong energy (322). It’s clean, consistent, and the offshore breeze is a dream. Monday the 27th of July morning is the first real standout. Dead calm, glassy, 2ft of SSW swell, and the energy is pumping hard at 422. There will be some real push in those waves.
But the session to circle is Tuesday the 28th of July. The morning brings a solid 3ft SSW swell with an 18-second period, and the energy is a monster at 551. You’ve got a light offshore breeze, the waves will be clean and powerful. This one is for the advanced crew, as that size starts to get heavy. If you’re not dialed in, it’s a good day to watch.
The quality holds into Wednesday the 29th of July morning with glassy conditions and a similar 3ft swell, though the energy drops a bit (444). After that, the swell fades through the end of the month and into August, with the energy dropping back to weak levels around 80 by the 2nd and 3rd. The last week is mostly flat with tiny, weak swells and onshore afternoon winds.
The clear winner is Tuesday the 28th of July morning. The best windows are the 28th and 29th mornings. Don’t sleep on it.
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.
