Table - best surf conditions forecast for Navegantes over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s talk about Navegantes. This is a beach and jetty setup that’s super consistent, so it’s always got something going on, even if it’s not always pumping. We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the second half of the window has some real potential.
Right now, the water is sitting at 63°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent wetsuit.
The first real standout is Monday morning, July 13th. We’ve got a solid 6ft swell from the SSE, with a period of 9 seconds, and a cross-offshore wind from the SW at 6 mph. The combined energy is moderate at 743, and it’s going to be clean. That’s a good, solid session for intermediate surfers, though it’s a bit much for beginners. The swell direction is a bit off the optimum, but the wind is making it work.
Then we hit a bit of a lull with smaller, weaker swell through the middle of the week. The mornings generally offer the best conditions with glassy or clean waves, but the size is down around 2ft to 4ft. Tuesday morning (July 14th) and Wednesday morning (July 15th) are both glassy with 4ft swell from the ESE, making for a fun, though smaller, session.
The real highlight, the one that’s got me excited, is the end of the window. Sunday, July 26th, through to Tuesday, July 28th. This is where the long-range promise pays off. On Sunday afternoon, we’ve got a 4ft swell from the SE with a very long period of 15 seconds, and a strong offshore wind from the WNW at 12 mph. The combined energy is strong at 687. Then Monday morning (July 27th) is even better: 4ft SE swell, a period of 17 seconds, and 12 mph offshore winds. The energy is very strong at 861. This is a groundswell, which at a beach break like Navegantes can make it break a bit straight, but with that offshore wind, it’s going to be clean and powerful. The Tuesday morning (July 28th) brings a bigger 6ft swell from the ENE, but with a short period of 7 seconds, and a clean offshore wind. That’s more for the experts, as it’s over 5ft.
So, the best on offer is that Sunday-to-Tuesday run at the end of the month. The Monday morning, July 27th, is the true standout. It’s promising, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it. The earlier Monday morning, July 13th, is also a solid, reliable option.

Information about the Navegantes Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Navegantes provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Navegantes can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Navegantes 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 (Navegantes) 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 Navegantes 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.
