The Lowdown

Alright, let’s break down what’s going down at Praia Dos Amores for the next couple weeks.

Right now, the surf is pretty weak. Thursday the 6th has only 0.7m of short-period ENE swell, with weak energy (79). Cross-off wind but nothing to write home about.

Friday the 7th bumps up a tiny bit to 0.9m, but the afternoon gets cross-onshore with rain – not worth it.

Saturday the 8th afternoon is your first real highlight. Swell drops to 0.8m but it’s from the SE with a long 14-second period, and energy jumps to 569. Light cross-off wind, clean conditions. That’s a solid small-wave session with proper push.

Sunday the 9th through Tuesday the 11th is mostly poor – cross-onshore wind, rain, chop. Wednesday the 12th shows a little improvement with light wind and glassy conditions, but still small.

Then Friday the 14th morning is another gem – glassy, 0.8m from the SE with a 15-second period (335 energy). That’s long-period groundswell, clean, and should offer some nice shape. Best morning of the second week.

The 15th and 16th are poor again. By the 17th and 18th, swell blows up to over 2.5m from the E/ENE with huge energy (over 1000). That’s way too big for this spot – expert-only and messy with cross-on wind.

We get a clean offshore session on Wednesday the 19th morning – 1.4m from the E, good for an intermediate surfer.

Finally, Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st finish with small but glassy conditions – 0.5-0.6m from the SE, long period, clean. Perfect for a longboard.

Best bets: Saturday 8th afternoon and Friday 14th morning. Clean, long-period, and fun.

Water temp is about 73° – normal for this time of year, so a shorty or spring suit will do.

Rusty out.

Information about the Praia Dos Amores Surf forecast

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