The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board and let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Navegantes.
Honestly, don’t get too excited just yet. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty quiet around here, with a long stretch of small, underwhelming surf. We’ve got a solid gap of days with nothing really worth paddling out for, especially from the 25th of July right through to the 2nd of August. The swell energy is weak, and most of it is just small, short-period windswell that won’t give you much to work with.
The one real standout in this whole 16-day window is Friday morning, the 24th of July. That’s your best bet. We’ll see a jump in swell to 6ft, coming from the SSE with a clean 9-second period. The combined energy hits 672 (moderate), which is the most oomph we’ll get. The wind is a light SSW cross-off, so the surface should be clean. That’s the morning to be out there. By the afternoon, it drops down to 4ft and the wind goes cross-on, so it’s a morning-only window.
Other than that, it’s slim pickings. The 3rd of August and the 4th of August show a little bump in swell, around 4ft from the SE, with a longer period of 11 seconds, which is more of a groundswell. But the wind is either cross-on or onshore, so it’s not going to be great. The energy is moderate (362 and 226), but the conditions will hold it back. The 5th of August morning looks glassy with 3ft from the ESE, but the swell is small.
The water temperature is sitting at 65°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The break itself is a beach/jetty setup, and with the swell being so small and the wind often messy, it’s not really setting up for a classic paddle session. Honestly, with the wind and small waves, some of these days look more interesting for the kite surfers than anyone with a shortboard.
Keep an eye on that Friday morning, the 24th of July. It’s not a monster, but it’s the only real highlight in a pretty flat run.

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.
