The Lowdown

Alright, let's talk about Navegantes for the next couple weeks. It’s gonna be hit and miss, but there are a couple of windows where it’ll fire.

We start off small. The first bit of surf we see is Saturday afternoon, August 8th. It’s a tiny 2ft swell from the southeast. The water’s at 67°F, which is about what you’d expect for August. The wind is light from the north, making it a bit of a tricky cross-shore. It’s a marginal call – more of a longboarder’s wave if the tide is right.

Sunday the 9th the swell picks up to 4ft, but the wind goes south-southeast at 12 mph, putting a real chop on it. It’s pretty poor. Monday the 10th is the same story with 3ft of cross-shore chop.

Things clean up as we head into Tuesday the 11th. The swell stays around 3ft from the southeast, but by the afternoon the wind goes light from the south-southwest and turns cross-offshore. That’s the ticket. The real winner is Wednesday the 12th. We’ve still got that 3ft of swell, but the wind goes glassy – right out of the southwest at 3 mph in the morning, then glassy from the west-northwest in the afternoon. It’ll be smooth as glass.

Thursday the 13th morning is also a good call with clean 3ft swell and a long 16-second period from the southeast. That long period gives them shape, but it might make ’em a bit straight on the beach. The afternoon gets blown out with an east-northeast onshore.

We hit a lull from Friday the 14th through the weekend. The surf gets smaller and the wind gets messy. Saturday the 15th sees a jump to 6ft from the southeast, but it’s a short-period windswell of 8 seconds, so it’s gonna be a chunky, messy wall of water. Sunday the 16th is bigger at 7ft from the east, still short period and cross-onshore at 9 mph. No good.

Now, mark your calendar for Monday the 17th of August. This is the standout. We’ve got a solid 6ft swell from the east, with the period stretching out to 9 seconds. The wind is clean cross-offshore from the north-northwest at 6 mph. It’ll have plenty of power and be well-shaped – one for the experienced surfers.

After that, it fades. Tuesday the 18th drops to 5ft with onshore breezes. Wednesday the 19th throws up another 7ft, but it’s short period and straight onshore, so just messy. By Thursday the 20th we’re down to knee-high 2ft waves and glassy conditions. The last few days, from the 21st to the 23rd, are small and weak. There’s a little bump on the 23rd with 6ft from the east-northeast, but it’s a short 7-second period, so just wind-slop.

So the best bets are Wednesday the 12th for clean, fun waves and Monday the 17th for more size and power. Get out there when the wind lays 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.
