The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a good, honest look at what's coming our way for the Navegantes stretch over the next sixteen days.
It's a slow start, mate. The first week is pretty flat and ordinary, so don't get your hopes up for anything exciting just yet. We've got a real gap in quality surf to get through. The best of what's on offer is going to be those morning sessions, especially when the wind drops right out.
The standout window for something worthwhile is shaping up for the start of August. The morning of Monday the 3rd of August is the pick of the lot. We're looking at a solid pulse of groundswell rolling in from the SE with a very long period of 13 seconds, pushing the combined energy up to a moderate 387. That's the biggest energy we see in the whole outlook. The water's sitting at 65°F, which is bang on average for this time of year. The real beauty is the wind: dead calm, glassy conditions. The swell height is only around 2 ft, but with that long period and clean face, it'll offer some proper shaped lines. Expect it to be a bit inconsistent between sets with that period, but the paddling out will be a breeze.
Another one to keep an eye on is the morning of Wednesday the 5th of August. Again, glassy conditions with no wind, and a 3 ft swell from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is a moderate 201, so there's a bit of push there. It's not the quality of that 3rd August session, but it'll be clean and surfable.
For the rest of the run, honestly, it's a lot of small, weak, and often choppy conditions. The swell rarely gets over 3 ft, and the period is often short, between 6 and 9 seconds. The afternoons are consistently ruined by cross-onshore breezes, turning the ocean into a mess of wind ripples. There's one interesting morning on the 31st of July with a glassy 2 ft swell from the SE, but the period is a long 12 seconds, and the energy is only moderate at 112. Might be worth a paddle if you're desperate, but don't expect much push.
Overall, it's a quiet period. If you've got to get wet, aim for those glassy mornings. The 3rd of August is the one clear target to write in your diary. The rest is mostly for the die-hards.

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.
