Alright, Rusty here, let’s take a look at what Ngor Rights has cookin’ for us over the next couple of weeks.
First off, the start is a total downer. The next several days are a write-off, with onshore and cross-shore winds just tearing things up. There’s no decent surf to be had until we get deep into the second week. We’re lookin’ at a gap of about a week before anything gets interesting.
The first flicker of hope comes on Monday, July 6th. Swell from the NNW at about 5ft (1.4m), with a 8-second period. The energy feels moderate (250), and the wind turns cross-offshore, scrubbing the surface clean. It’s only a marginal call though, so keep your expectations in check.
Then we hit another flat and messy patch. The real tiny gem lands on Sunday, July 12th. It’s small, with 3ft (0.9m) from the NNW at 8 seconds. The combined energy is low (122), but the wind is light and cross-offshore – glassy conditions, perfect for a longboard. Crowds pop up sometimes here, but on a mellow session like this, it’ll be chill.
The big standout is shaping up to be Thursday, July 16th. Same 3ft (0.9m) from the NNW, still a short period, but the energy is reasonable at 186. The wind flips to a light cross-offshore from the WSW at just 6 mph (10 km/h). Water temp is pretty average for the season. It’s gonna be clean, smooth, and worth the wait.
Later, on Friday, July 17th, we see a tiny pulse of groundswell from the southwest – 2ft (0.5m) with a long 18-second period (430 energy). This kind of long-period swell can break too straight along the sand, but if you’ve got the right bank, it’s a fun, weird little novelty.
Bottom line: aim for the 12th and especially the 16th of July. The rest is mostly choppy trash or too small. Keep an eye on the longer-range stuff, but don’t bet the farm.
Rusty.

Information about the Ngor Rights Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ngor Rights provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ngor Rights can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ngor Rights 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 (Ngor Rights) 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 Ngor Rights 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.
Ngor Rights is 6 km (4 miles) from the very large city of Dakar. If you plan a holiday in Senegal, look for hotels and other accommodation in Dakar. Dakar has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as cheap car hire and transport links.
