The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee and let’s talk about what’s ahead.

Honestly, mate, I’ve got to be straight with you – this 16-day window looks like a tough stretch for São Pedro. The finder is coming up empty for any decent surf, and I'm not seeing anything to get excited about. We’ve got a long, dry spell ahead. There's a gap that stretches from the start of the outlook all the way through to the second week with barely a ripple. The first real sign of anything happens around Wednesday morning, the 5th of August, but it’s a tiny bump.

This is a classic sheltered point break, and it’s labelled as ‘rarely breaks’ for a reason. It needs a specific sweet spot in the swell direction to work, and we just aren’t getting it. The strongest swell we see is a weak pulse on the morning of the 5th of August – a 1ft swell from the west with a short period of 10 seconds, and the combined wave energy is a feeble 32. That’s not a surf session; that’s a lake. That afternoon it drops right back down.

We do get a few moments of glassy or clean conditions, like Monday the 10th of August morning with a light north breeze and the water looking like glass. But without any real swell, it doesn’t matter how clean it looks – there’s nothing to ride. The winds will be cross-offshore most days, which is normally a good look for this place, but there’s no power behind the waves.

To put it bluntly: the entire 16-day stretch is a write-off for paddling. The maximum swell we see is 1ft, and that’s a big ‘if’. If you’re a beginner, there’s nothing to learn on. For the experienced crew, there is simply no energy. Given the sheltered setup and the lack of swell, the conditions are actually more suited to a kite than a surfboard. The occasional cross-chop and moderate breeze on a few afternoons would give a kite some fun, but for us wave-hunters, it’s a solid pass.

Stay tuned, things can change, but for now, I’d save your energy.

Information about the Sao Pedro Surf forecast

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

Sao Pedro is 2 km (1 miles) from Parede. If you plan a holiday in Lisboa, look for hotels and other accommodation in Parede. Parede has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
