Table - best surf conditions forecast for Porto Batel over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's run this down for Porto Batel. This is a point break that breaks fairly consistently and likes a W swell. Water temp is 65°, running a bit cooler than the norm for this time of year, about 2° off the average.
The first week is flat. Nothing. The 11th (Saturday) shows a tiny NW swell of about 2ft, but it's short period and won't do much. The 12th (Sunday) morning is clean and glassy with a 3ft WNW swell and moderate energy, but it's still not worth a paddle.
From the 13th right through the 19th, it's basically a desert. Small, weak swells, poor conditions. The winds are clean sometimes, but there's just no push. Combined energy numbers are tiny, barely in the double digits. It's a long gap.
Finally, something stirs on the 20th. Monday the 20th morning goes glassy with a 4ft NW swell and respectable energy. The real move is Tuesday the 21st morning: a 4ft NW swell, cross-off winds, and a "good surf" call. That's your first real session of the period.
But the big one is the 24th of July. Friday morning. Offshore wind from the NE, a solid 7ft NNW swell, and strong, powerful energy (696). That's legitimate size for this break, experts only. The direction isn't perfect for the optimum (W), but the quality and power make it the clear standout.
First week is a dud. Hold out for the 21st for a fun, clean day, and the 24th for a proper session.
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.
