The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Navegantes has in store.
Honestly, the next week and a half is looking pretty slow and unremarkable. From Wednesday the 22nd right through the end of July, it’s all small, weak swell. We’re talking waves around 2 to 3 feet, with the energy staying low (combined energy between 83 and 215). The swell is coming from the ENE and ESE, not the ideal SE direction. The periods are short, around 8 to 9 seconds, so it’s messy windswell, not the good stuff.
There are a few clean mornings with glassy or light offshore winds (WNW), like Wednesday the 22nd, Thursday the 23rd, and Sunday the 26th. The waves will be clean but tiny. Not worth rushing out for.
The only real standout in the whole 16-day window is the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. That’s two weeks out, so not a lock, but it’s the best bet. Swell jumps to a proper 3 feet from the SE, with a 12-second period – that’s groundswell. The combined energy is 389, which is a solid step up. The wind is offshore from the NW, so the waves will be clean and well-shaped. This is a long-period swell, so it’s going to love the jetty, holding its shape nicely. Get it early, because the afternoon goes cross-on.
The rest of the first week of August is small, weak, and onshore. Thursday the 6th is a washout.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off for anything decent. The one to circle is the morning of Wednesday, August 5th.
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.
