The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be real with you. The outlook for Sao Pedro for the next 16 days is pretty much a dud. This is a sheltered point that rarely breaks, and this forecast is living up to that.
We’re looking at a big empty gap at the start. Day after day of nothing worth getting wet for. It’s not until the second week we see a flicker, and even then, it’s tiny.
Starting on the 13th of July, there’s a tiny 0.5m swell from the west with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is only 22, which is just a weak bump. The wind is cross-on, and the water temp is 19°, about normal. It’s poor, and that’s the theme.
The whole first week is a bust. We get some glassy conditions, like on Monday the 20th, but there’s zero swell. The few tiny pulses we see are 0.1m to 0.3m. Take the 28th of July (Tuesday afternoon): a 0.3m west swell with an 11-second period – that’s a long period, and the wind is clean offshore – but the combined energy is just 26. It’s way too small to surf.
There are no standouts. Nothing. No good options. This is one of those stretches where you leave the board in the truck. The surf is just too small and inconsistent for anyone. For the full 16 days, I can’t point to a single session that’s worth it. This is just a normal quiet spell for this spot.
Keep your chin up. - Rusty

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.
