The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Right off the bat, I’ll be straight with you – the next few days are pretty flat and messy. The surf is basically non-existent or junk for the first chunk of the outlook. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing good from now until the morning of the 27th. After that, things get interesting, but it’s a real mixed bag with a lot of wind chop and poor conditions. The only real standout comes late in the period.
The first hint of something bigger rolls in on the morning of Monday, the 27th of July. The swell jumps to 6ft at Playa de Tranqueru, coming from the NNW with a solid 10-second period. The combined energy hits 611 (moderate wave energy), so there’s some push behind it. The wind is cross-on from the ENE at 6 mph, which is keeping the surface a little bumpy. It’s still a marginal call, but it’s the first time we see any real size. The swell direction is NW, which is right in the optimum slot for this spot, so the shape should be okay despite the wind.
The real highlight, the one I’d pencil in, is the morning of Wednesday, the 29th of July. The swell drops to 3ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, but the wind goes glassy. Absolutely dead calm, with a light offshore from the NW at 3 mph. That’s clean, clean surf. The combined energy is 114 (weak), so it’s not a power day, but for a little runner, it’s your best bet. Water temp is 70°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be comfortable in a shorty.
The rest of the week is a write-off. Thursday the 30th, Friday the 31st, and Saturday the 1st of August all have surfable waves but nothing special. The morning of the 1st of August is glassy again, with 2ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, and zero wind. It’s small, but it’s clean. If you’re desperate, that’s your backup.
The following week, starting Monday the 4th of August, we get a little bump in size, but the period drops to 5 seconds. That’s short-period wind swell, which is lumpy and weak. The afternoon of Tuesday the 4th is glassy with 4ft from the ENE, but with that short period, it’ll be a bumpy, crumbly mess. Wednesday the 5th has a glassy morning again, 4ft from the NE, period 6 seconds. Still not great.
Honestly, if you’re looking for the best call, it’s the morning of Wednesday the 29th of July. Glassy, clean, and a little bit of shape. It’s not a big day, but it’s the only day where everything lines up right. Keep an eye on it.
Rusty.

Information about the Playa de Tranqueru Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Playa de Tranqueru provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Playa de Tranqueru can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Playa de Tranqueru 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.
