The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk surf. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – the next week and a half is gonna be a real test of patience here at Praia do Aventureiro, a beginner-friendly point break. The water's about 72°, which is normal for this time of year, so no complaints there.
The first chance for anything comes on Tuesday, July 14th, in the afternoon. We’ve got a 6ft SSE swell moving at 10 seconds, with moderate energy (740). The wind is a light cross from the SSE, so it'll be a little bumpy with ripples on the surface. It's the best of a bad bunch, but it's still just a marginal call.
After that, it's a long, dry spell. From Wednesday the 15th through to Saturday the 25th of July, it's pretty much a write-off. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, the swell is tiny and weak, and the quality is just plain poor. You're looking at a solid 10-day gap where you won't find anything worth paddling out for. The energy drops from 616 down to a pathetic 55, so you're dealing with ankle-biters and chop. Don't even bother.
Then, just when you've given up hope, the morning of Monday, July 27th, shows up like a gift. That's the standout session. We get a 5ft swell from the SSE, still with a short 8-second period, but the real story is the wind: it's glassy, coming from the ENE. That's a huge bonus. The energy jumps back up to 480, so there's some decent power. After nearly two weeks of nothing, this is a cracker. It won't be perfect, but it'll be clean and fun for the crew on the bigger boards.
The final few days, from the 28th through the 29th, get a bit more complicated. The swell period stretches out to 12 seconds, which is a nice long-period groundswell. That brings more power and shape, but it can also make the waves wall up a bit at a point break. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-on, so the surface will be messy. The energy is high (641 to 657), but the quality won't match the numbers.
So, here's the plan: take a break for about ten days, then paddle out for the morning of July 27th. That's your one real shot at something clean and fun. Don't sleep on it.

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