The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a proper test of patience. We've got a long, quiet stretch ahead before things finally wake up.
The outlook kicks off on Wednesday the 15th with some swell, but it’s a mess. We’re looking at 5ft of SE windswell with a short 10-second interval, and the easterly wind is blowing straight onshore. The water’s sitting at 72°, which is about normal for this time of year, but the conditions are just poor. That combined energy reading of 616 is telling us there's some push, but it's utterly wasted with that wind. This pattern of blown-out, marginal surf drags on. Thursday the 16th offers a glimpse with a smaller 4ft swell and a light NE wind in the morning, but it’s cross-onshore, creating those small wind ripples. It's barely surfable. The same story repeats day after day – small, short-period swell (mostly around 3ft or less, periods of 8 seconds) and wind that’s almost never in our favour.
There’s a real dry spell here. From Thursday the 16th right through to Saturday the 25th, the forecast is filled with “poor surf conditions” or at best “marginal.” A lot of these days see combined energy readings dropping below 200 (like 197, 172, 134), which is weak, with onshore winds trashing whatever tiny bumps are there. It’s grim. A small window of glassy conditions on Thursday morning the 23rd gives us a tiny 2ft bump, but it’s barely enough to get wet.
Then, finally, we see the light. The standouts are at the tail end of the forecast period. Monday the 27th is the first real glimmer of hope. We get a 5ft S swell (11-second period) early in the morning with glassy conditions and a northeast breeze that dies off. The combined energy is 584 – moderate but building – and the “expect good surf conditions” tag says it all. This is a proper point break swell. The southeast direction isn’t the absolute optimum (we prefer east), but the clean conditions make it a goer. This one’s a solid choice for intermediate surfers.
However, the true standout, the one to circle on your calendar, is Tuesday the 28th. This is the big one. In the morning, we’ve got 7ft of S groundswell with a very long 14-second period. The combined energy reading is a massive 1708 – strong to very strong – and the wind is glassy calm. That’s text-book excellence for a point break like Praia do Aventureiro. The swell direction (S) is good, and that long period means these waves will have serious power and shape. The only thing to keep in mind: 7ft is big, definitely in the “experts only” zone, and the long period (over 15 seconds is very long, but 14 seconds is still significant) might make it a bit too lined-up for the beach break. For this point break, it’s ideal. This is the session you want.
Following that, Wednesday the 29th morning keeps the quality going with 5ft S swell (12 seconds) and glassy winds again (755 energy). The afternoon gets a bit cross-choppy, but the morning window is solid.
So, the short version: hang tough through a lot of flat, blown-out days. Your target is Monday morning the 27th for a fun session, and absolutely don’t miss Tuesday morning the 28th for the best surf of this entire outlook. It’s a long wait, but that payoff is going to be worth it.
Rusty.

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 do Aventureiro 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.
