The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's cookin' for our local stretch at Navegantes over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a mixed bag, so we gotta be patient.

Right off the bat, the water temp here is sitting at about 68°F, which feels a touch warmer than normal for early September – nice for a longer session.

First up, we've got a bit of a dry spell to start. The real action doesn't kick off until the early hours of Monday, September 7th. The morning will bring a cross-shore breeze with a 5ft swell out of the SSE, but it's a bit messy with a moderate energy level (667). It's surfable but nothing to write home about. That afternoon, the wind swings light onshore and the swell drops right off, so don't expect much.

Tuesday, September 8th looks a bit better. The morning session at Navegantes is looking clean with a light cross-offshore breeze and a small 2ft SE swell – not big, but workable. The real standout, though, is Tuesday afternoon. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, and we get a 3ft easterly swell with a short period (7 seconds) pushing moderate energy (175). It'll be small and weak, but the conditions will be absolutely perfect for a log or a funboard. This is your best bet for the early part of the week if you want silky-smooth waves.

Looking ahead to Wednesday, September 9th, the morning is the pick of the week so far. Clean, cross-offshore breeze from the WNW, with a 4ft easterly swell running at 8 seconds. The energy is building to 268 – moderate, but feeling solid. It's not huge, but it'll be clean, with a bit more push than Tuesday. Afternoon gets choppy again, so get in early.

Thursday, September 10th is another day with a clear winner: the afternoon session. Glassy conditions again, but this time with a 2ft groundswell from the SE packing a 15-second period. That long period means it'll have some serious travel, but at this height, it'll be small and clean – perfect for a point break or reef, though Navegantes is a beach/jetty setup, so expect it to be a bit straight. Energy is moderate at 296. Still, you can't beat glass.

We hit a bit of a lull from Friday through the weekend. Friday, September 11th has glassy conditions in the afternoon with a tiny 3ft ENE swell (period 8 seconds, energy 140), but it's just ordinary. Saturday, September 12th is similar – glassy morning (3ft, ENE) and then a better afternoon with a 3ft SE groundswell at 10 seconds (energy 391) under glassy skies. That Saturday afternoon is actually a nice little window if you're desperate for clean waves.

Now, for the Sunday, September 13th and Monday, September 14th period, forget it. Onshore winds and rain ruin a building swell – 5ft to 5ft from the ESE with a 10-second period (energy 508-569). It's got power, but the wind is a mess. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

The next true standout is Tuesday, September 15th, in the morning. Clean offshore wind from the WSW, a 4ft ESE swell at 10 seconds, and solid moderate energy (361). That's your best-looking day for the second week. It's got shape, it's clean, and it's got some grunt. If you can only pick one session, this is it.

The rest of the week into the weekend (September 16th to 20th) is pretty grim – onshore winds, rain, or just tiny slop. There's a brief flash on Monday, September 21st with a clean cross-offshore breeze and a small 3ft easterly swell (7 seconds, energy 75). It's ordinary but at least it's clean for a Monday morning.

Overall, the standout window is Tuesday afternoon, Sept 8th for pure glassy conditions on small waves, and the morning of Tuesday, Sept 15th for the best combo of size, wind, and clean conditions. Be patient, pick your window, and don't bother with the rainy, windy days.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
