The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Navegantes over the next 16 days.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first real surfable session doesn’t roll in until Friday morning, July 24th. After that, there’s a real dry spell. From Saturday afternoon all the way through the end of the month, it’s mostly flat, weak, or just plain messy. You’ll be looking at a gap of about 5 or 6 days where it’s hardly worth paddling out. The water is sitting at 65°, which is bang on average for this time of year, nothing weird there.
The first glimpse of something decent is Friday morning, July 24th. Navegantes will see a 4ft swell from the SE, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a nice little groundswell, and with glassy conditions and a light WSW breeze at 3 mph, the surface will be clean as a whistle. The combined energy is moderate at 237. It’s not a classic, but it’s a solid start for a morning session. Crowds are possible here, so get there early.
Now, the real standout is further out. Thursday morning, August 6th, is the one to circle on the calendar. We’re looking at a 7ft swell from the east with a 9-second period. The wind is glassy from the NW, and the combined energy jumps to a strong 685. That’s proper, punchy waves. At 7ft, it’s getting a bit much for beginners, but for the intermediates and up, this is where it’s at. Friday morning, August 7th, is also a treat with a similar 7ft east swell, clean offshore winds, and energy at 802. The water’s still gonna be about that same temp, nothing unusual.
The best of the best? Thursday morning, August 6th, hands down. That glassy east swell at Navegantes is the pick of the whole run. It’s still a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s lookin’ mighty promising.
Stay stoked, and don’t let the flat spells get ya down.

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.
