Alright, let’s talk about Navegantes in good old feet and miles. I’m Rusty, and the forecast is what it is.
There’s a dry spell to start. Not much doing on Saturday the 4th or Sunday the 5th. Waves are small, wind is a bit off. The water temperature is 64°, which is about 3° cooler than the usual for this time of year – a bit chilly, so don’t forget the rubber.
The real standout is Sunday morning, July 12th. We’re looking at a 4ft swell coming from the ESE with a 12-second period. That’s proper groundswell, and the combined energy is solid at (680). The wind is a light offshore from the SW at 3 mph, leaving the surf clean and lined up. That’s your session. The Sunday afternoon is even better with glassy, no-wind conditions on the same 4ft ESE swell (633 energy). This break at Navegantes is a beach and jetty setup, and with that long period, the waves could be a bit straight, but with those winds, it’s worth it. It’s consistent, but crowds are sometimes an issue, so be early.
Before that, Saturday the 11th morning has a 3ft E swell with a clean offshore wind, but it’s not as powerful as the Sunday. Thursday the 10th has some tiny, glassy 2ft waves, but nothing exciting.
Later on, Wednesday the 16th brings a 5ft SSE swell, but the wind is a messy onshore at 9 mph and the period is short at 8 seconds. It’s choppy and junky – moderate energy (301), but better for a kite than a paddle. After that, the swell drops to tiny 1ft to 2ft waves for the rest of the run, with wind on it most of the time.
So, call it for Sunday the 12th. That’s the one to circle. The rest is a long wait or a kite session.
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.
