The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a long stretch ahead, but I’ll be honest with you – the first week and a half is pretty flat. For the first ten days, the waves are tiny, the energy is weak, and the conditions are just not doing us any favours. We’re looking at a real dry spell from now until the 24th of July. That’s a long gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
Then, finally, around Friday the 24th of July, we see a little lift. Playa de Tranqueru will start to see some surfable waves, but it’s still very ordinary. On the morning of the 24th, we get a clean 3 ft swell from the NW with a period of 7 seconds, and the wind is glassy – dead calm, which is a big plus for clean conditions. The combined energy is moderate at 111, so there’s a bit of push, but the period is short, so it’s not going to be super organised. It’s a small, weak groundswell attempt, best for the longboard or a fun fish.
The 25th and 26th of July keep that same vibe: 3 ft to 3 ft from the NW, with clean glassy mornings. The energy dips a bit on the 25th morning (77) and comes back slightly on the 26th (82). Again, nothing to write home about, but if you’re desperate for a paddle, those early sessions will be the cleanest.
Then on the 27th of July, the energy picks up again to 149, but the wind goes cross-onshore, so it’s messy. The 29th of July morning brings another clean window: 3 ft, NW, 9-second period, glassy wind, and moderate energy (125). That’s probably the best-looking session in the whole run. Still small, but clean.
Overall, the standout here is the morning of the 24th of July, with the glassy start and the first real bump in size, and the 29th of July morning for the slightly longer period and clean conditions. Crowds at Playa de Tranqueru can be around sometimes, so expect a few others with the same idea when it’s clean.
So, keep your expectations low and your eyes on the 24th and 29th. That’s your best bet.
Rusty.

Information about the Playa de Tranqueru Surf forecast

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.
