The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on offer here. The opening week is a bit of a slow burner, but there’s a couple of moments that’ll get the blood pumping if you’re patient.
The first real window of opportunity hits Playa de Tranqueru on Thursday, 27th August. The morning glass-off is key – a light cross-offshore breeze from the WSW is going to keep things tidy. The swell is pushing 4ft out of the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (222). It’s not world-class, but it’s surfable and clean for an intermediate. That afternoon, the swell jumps up to 5ft and the period stretches to 11 seconds, which brings a real punch with it (517 energy). The wind gets a bit messy, though, so the morning is your best bet.
Now, the standout. It’s got to be Saturday morning, 29th August. The wind is going completely glassy, dead calm, and the swell is a solid 6ft out of the NW with a 9-second period. The combined energy is strong (769). This is the pick of the whole forecast – expect very good, clean conditions. It’s a bit punchy for beginners, but for an intermediate surfer, this is the session to circle. The crowds are *sometimes* an issue here, so get in early for the peace.
The 30th August is also worth a mention. Another glassy morning, this time with the wind swinging ESE, and a 5ft NW swell. The energy is moderate (348) and it’s clean enough for a good session. After that, the swell drops off significantly through the first week of September. From the 31st August right through to the 6th September, it’s a real flat spell. The waves are small and weak, with a lot of poor surf conditions. The morning of the 7th September brings a glimmer of hope – a 5ft NNW swell with a long 12-second period and glassy conditions, giving you clean, good surf. That’s over a week away, so it’s promising but not locked in.
Water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no need to worry about a wetsuit change.
