The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Navegantes over the next few weeks. It's a bit of a mixed bag, so let's get into it.

This 16-day window is a quiet one for us here. The surf is small and the conditions are inconsistent, with a lot of "ordinary" or "poor" days scattered about. The good news is that the wind does offer some clean windows, but the swell is the main issue. We're not looking at any big, powerful groundswells, mostly short-period, local windswell from the east and southeast. The combined energy is weak to moderate, with the highest reading hitting 233 (moderate) on Monday afternoon, but that comes with poor wind.

The only real standout comes on Monday, July 20th. The morning session at Navegantes looks like the best bet of the whole run. We've got a clean 4ft swell from the ENE with a light cross-offshore breeze from the WNW. The waves are small but the conditions should be good. The combined energy is moderate (204). For a beach/jetty setup, this is about as good as it gets given the circumstances. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is normal for this time of year.

Unfortunately, that's about it for the bright spots. Tuesday, July 21st morning is glassy, but the swell is a weak 4ft. Wednesday, July 22nd has a glassy afternoon with a tiny 3ft wave. These are the only other sessions that are even worth considering, and they're still "ordinary." The rest of the first week and into the second is a mix of small, weak swell and onshore winds.

We get a real interesting shift on Monday, July 27th. The swell drops to just 1ft, but the period jumps to 14 seconds, a proper long-period groundswell. The combined energy is still moderate (149), which is decent for the size, but 1ft is tiny. It's glassy in the morning, but it's a long-period swell breaking on a beach break, which means it could be a bit too straight and hard to catch. Not a surfer's ideal, but the only real sign of life in the deep forecast.

For the second week, from July 28th to August 3rd, the surf is very small. Most days are under 3ft with poor wind. The last day of the outlook, Monday, August 3rd, offers a glassy morning with a 3ft easterly swell, but it's short period (7 seconds) and the combined energy is moderate (166). It's a possibility, but it's a long way out and the forecast could change.

Overall, the pick of the lot is Monday morning, July 20th. It's the only window where the swell, wind, and conditions align to offer something worth paddling out for. After that, it's a long wait. Keep your eyes on the sky, but it looks like a good week to clean the wax off the board.

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.
