Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Porto Batel has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
The overall pattern is pretty quiet, I gotta be honest. There’s a very small window of fun surf right at the start, then a long, long lull sets in. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.
Saturday, July 4th is the standout, no question. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell from the NNW with 242 (moderate wave energy) behind it and the wind is glassy – absolutely dead calm. That is a major positive, you’ll get perfect, clean conditions at Porto Batel. It’s a point break, so that 8-second period will work nicely. This is the best on offer, plain and simple. The swell direction is a solid NW to W, which is what this spot wants.
After that morning, things drop off fast. Saturday afternoon the wind swings cross-on and the swell gets smaller and crummier. Then from Sunday, July 5th all the way through to Saturday, July 19th, it’s a massive dry spell. We’re talking over two weeks of small, weak swell and mostly average winds. The energy numbers dip into the double digits and low hundreds, barely anything moving. The waves are tiny, mostly under 2ft, and the periods are short. There’s nothing here for a surfer to get excited about – the scores tell the whole story.
Now, there is a little glimmer right at the end. On Sunday, July 19th morning, the forecast shows a pulse of groundswell hitting. We’re looking at a 3ft NW swell with a nice long period of 11 seconds, giving us a solid 408 (moderate wave energy). The wind will be a light offshore breeze from the NNW. That’s a promising setup. It’s still over a week away, so don’t lock it in, but keep an eye on it. That Sunday morning could be a quiet, clean surprise after all the flatness.
So, to wrap it up: paddle out Saturday morning, that’s your only real go-time. The rest of the first two weeks of July are a write-off. That last Sunday might just save the run if it holds.
Rusty.

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