Praia do Aventureiro Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a squiz at what’s cooking at Praia do Aventureiro over the next couple of weeks. It’s a point break that’s very consistent, so you can generally count on something to ride. The water’s at 73°, which is a bit toastier than normal for this time of year – not bad.

Straight up, Monday morning the 6th of July is looking tidy. We’ve got a 5ft south swell rolling in with an 11-second period, and the wind is glassy from the NNE at 3 mph. Swell energy is moderate at 719. This is a fun, friendly size for a beginner spot, and it’ll be smooth as. Expect crowds are possible, but with conditions that clean, it’s worth it.

Monday afternoon the wind swings onshore from the east, and things go pear-shaped. Tuesday the 7th of July is a bit better with a 4ft SSE swell and a light cross-off wind from the WSW in the morning. Swell energy is a moderate 457. Rideable, but not the highlight.

Now, here’s the first real standout. Monday the 13th of July morning – we’ve got a solid pulse of 7ft south swell with a 10-second period. Swell energy jumps to a strong 1039. The wind is light and cross-off from the NW at 3 mph, keeping it clean. That’s serious size, edging towards expert-only territory, but for the seasoned crew, this is the best session of the first week. Just mind the afternoon when a 22 mph SW wind will mess it up.

After that, there’s a bit of a quiet spell with smaller, average days until Friday the 17th of July. That morning, a 7ft south swell (8-second period) arrives with glassy conditions from the north at 3 mph. Swell energy is 693. The wind stays light and glassy into the afternoon, with a 6ft south swell (9-second period) and a high energy reading of 812. This is a really good, clean day.

But the absolute top pick of the whole run? Saturday the 18th of July morning. The swell is 6ft from the south, with a very long 13-second period – that’s proper groundswell. Combined swell energy is a very strong 1103. The wind is glassy out of the NE at 3 mph. For a point break like Aventureiro, that long-period south swell is going to wrap in beautifully and give you lined-up, powerful waves. The wind will be perfect. This is the one to mark on your calendar. It’s still over a week away, so forecasts can wobble, but as it sits, it’s a cracker.

There’s another nice, glassy morning on Monday the 20th of July with a 3ft south swell and a 14-second period, and again on Tuesday the 21st of July morning with a 3ft south swell and a very long 15-second period, both with glassy wind. Plenty of good options scattered through.
