The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Looks like the Navegantes stretch is in for a bit of a slow burn, but there’s a couple of moments that’ll get the blood pumping. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is right on the money for this time of year, so no need to dig out the extra rubber just yet.

We start off pretty quiet. Wednesday morning (5th August) is glassy but tiny, with 2ft of short-period ENE windswell – combined energy’s a weak 90, so you’re really just bobbing around. Thursday and Friday are small and average, with a bit of cross-off or offshore wind keeping things clean, but the swell’s just not there. It’s a bit of a flat spell until we get a real shift.

The first standout comes on Saturday afternoon (8th August). A new SE groundswell pushes in with a solid 14-second period and combined energy jumps to 332 – that’s moderate energy, and the glassy conditions will have Navegantes looking pretty. Swell height is only 3ft, but that long period will give it some shape. Just be aware, a long period SE swell at a beach/jetty setup can run a bit straight, but with the wind dead calm, it’s worth a paddle.

The next real highlight is way out – Wednesday morning, 19th August. We’ve got a clean 5ft ENE swell rolling in with a 9-second period, combined energy at 391 (moderate). Offshore wind from the W at 9 mph will have the waves peeling nicely. That’s the pick of the whole window, but it’s 14 days away, so keep an eye on the forecasts. The following afternoon (19th) is glassy and the same size, which is a bonus.

There’s a gap between Sunday 9th and Tuesday 12th where conditions are mostly poor – a lot of onshore wind and rain, not worth your time. The 5ft+ swell on the 17th and 18th also gets a mention, but the wind is a bit messy, and at that size with a short period, it’s a bit of a handful for the average punter.

All in all, Saturday 8th afternoon is the early call, but the real one to circle is Wednesday 19th August. The rest is a waiting game.

Rusty.

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.
