The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the Navegantes stretch for the next couple of weeks. Let’s get into it.
Right off the bat, the first week is going to be a grind. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak waves and ordinary conditions. The water temp is sitting around 65°, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t show up until Wednesday morning, August 5th. That’s the standout window. We’ve got a clean, glassy morning with a 5ft swell from the ENE, period around 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 347, and with the wind dead calm, it’s going to be clean. This is the best on offer, but it’s a week away, so keep an eye on the forecast. For Navegantes, a beach and jetty setup, that ENE swell isn’t the absolute optimum, but with glassy conditions, it’ll be fun. Expect crowds to show up.
After that, Friday morning, August 7th, looks promising too. A cleaner cross-off wind from the NNW with a 4ft swell from the E, period of 10 seconds, and combined energy of 265. The wind will keep it tidy, and the longer period will give it a bit more shape.
Into the second week, Sunday morning, August 9th, has a glassy start with a 4ft swell from the S, but it’s a short period of 6 seconds, so it’ll be a bit messy and weak. Not a standout, but it’s surfable.
The rest of the period is mostly small, weak, and onshore. There’s a long gap with nothing worth chasing from the 10th onward. The swell energy drops off to very weak numbers, and the wind is never really on your side.
So, to keep it simple: wait for the 5th or the 7th. Those are your best shots. Everything else is a flat spell or a wind-affected mess.
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.
