Alright, let's get into it. Rusty here.
Well, I gotta be straight with you—the next few days are looking pretty grim for a proper surf. We've got a long stretch of small, weak swell and mostly cross-onshore breezes that are gonna leave the surface choppy and messy. For a solid week, from Saturday the 11th right through to the end of the following week, you're looking at tiny waves, mostly under 2 ft, with lousy shape. The combined energy is barely registering, with values as low as 21 (weak energy). There's a whole lot of nothing going on.
Now, there is a little flicker on Friday morning, July 24th. The swell bumps up a touch to 3 ft from the WNW with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind goes glassy – dead calm – so it'll be clean. But the energy is still weak at 80. The comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so it's more of a chance to get wet than a day to remember. I wouldn't get too excited.
The real event, and the only true standout in this entire 16-day window, is shaping up for Saturday, July 25th. We've got a proper pulse of groundswell arriving from the NNW, pushing a solid 8 ft with a period of 10 seconds. The combined wave energy absolutely cranks up to 1082 (moderate energy). That's a serious amount of water moving. The morning wind is a light cross-onshore from the WNW at 6 mph, so it's workable, not perfect. This is a big swell, over 8 ft, so it's strictly for experienced surfers only; beginners should sit this one out. The cross-onshore wind will keep the surface from being perfect, but the power will be undeniable at Playa de Tranqueru. The water temp is sitting at 67° which is about average for the time of year, not a massive anomaly there.
Look, it's a long wait. That blank run from July 11th to July 23rd is a tough one, but forecasts do change. If you're desperate for a paddle, that glassy morning on the 24th might be your only shot before the real deal hits on the 25th. Stay tuned.
Rusty.
