The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Porto Batel over the next couple of weeks.

We’re looking at a pretty slow start, to be honest. The first few days are a bit of a write-off with messy, weak windswell and those cross-off winds. The water temp is sitting at 67° which is just a touch under the average for this time of year, nothing wild.

The real standout window is Saturday, the 5th of September. That morning, Porto Batel (point) is shaping up to be the pick of the bunch. We’ve got a solid 8ft of swell pushing in from the NNW, with a long 13-second period – that’s proper groundswell with some grunt. The combined energy is a strong 2543. You’ll feel that. The wind is a slight offshore from the ESE, meaning it’ll be clean as a whistle. This is definitely one for the experienced crew only though, as that’s getting up there in size. It could be a bit much for beginners. If you’re an expert, mark your calendar.

The next morning, Sunday the 6th, is still looking okay. The swell drops to 5ft from the NNW with a 10-second period, and the wind is a gentle cross-off from the N. It’s a step down in power, but it’ll be clean and far more manageable. A solid option for intermediates.

After that, things get a bit inconsistent again through the middle of the week. There’s a pulse of energy around Friday the 11th of September, with 6ft from the NW and a 12-second period, giving us a combined energy of 977. That’s moderate wave energy. The wind is a gentle breeze from the N, so it’ll be clean, but it’s not quite the standout of the 5th.

The very end of the forecast, on Sunday the 13th of September, sees another rise in size with 6ft of swell, but the wind is howling at 25 mph from the N. That’s a strong breeze and will make for a bumpy, choppy surface. It’s a miss for surfing, to be honest.

The best bet overall is the morning of the 5th of September. That’s the one to aim for.

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.
