The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s heading our way for Navegantes.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first few days are pretty lackluster, with only marginal surf on offer. The region does have a very consistent wave climate, so this quiet spell feels a little unusual, but it won't last forever. The real action starts to stir up around the 7th of September.

We’ve got a bit of a tease on Thursday morning, the 3rd of September. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the NNW at 6 mph, and the swell is a tidy 4 ft from the ESE with a nice 11-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 369, and the conditions are looking clean. It’s a solid window for an intermediate surfer to get a few fun ones, but it’s not the standout of the whole period.

The real standout, the one you’ll want to circle on the calendar, is the morning of Thursday, the 10th of September. We’re looking at a 5 ft swell from the ENE, and the wind? Dead glassy. It’s a slight air from the WNW at just 3 mph. The combined energy is moderate at 324, and that glassy surface is going to make for some absolutely perfect, clean lines. This is the best the forecast has to offer.

Then, on the morning of Wednesday the 9th, we get a little taste of clean conditions with an offshore wind from the W at 3 mph, pushing a 4 ft swell from the NE with a short 6-second period. The combined energy is 246, and it should be fun for a shortboard on a clean face.

Heading into the second week, the surf gets a bit more sporadic. The morning of the 17th of September shows some promise with a 4 ft, 8-second SSE swell and a clean cross-offshore NNW breeze at 3 mph. The energy is 221, but being this far out, it’s one to keep an eye on rather than bank on.

For the most part, the afternoons will be plagued by onshore or cross-onshore winds, making things choppy. The morning windows are the key. The water temp is sitting at a comfortable 68°, which is about average for this time of year, so no need for a thick wetsuit. Enjoy the glassy session on the 10th, that’s the one.

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.
