The Lowdown
Well, grab a seat because this one's a tough pill to swallow. We're looking at the Sao Pedro (Sao-Pedro-1) region out here, and to be brutally honest with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty flat. There's no surf to get excited about right now, and it's going to be a long wait.
The forecast starts with nothing on the cards for August 31st, and that flat spell is going to drag on. We're looking at a solid gap of almost two weeks with barely a ripple. The water temperature is sitting around 68°F, which is pretty average for this time of year, nothing special there.
The only real glimmer of something, and I mean *something*, comes right at the very end of the forecast period. On Tuesday, September 15th, we might see a tiny pulse of swell. The morning session shows a 2 ft swell from the west, with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is still weak, only hitting 63 (weak energy). Wind is a light cross-offshore breeze from the north, which would keep the surface clean. It's still a very, very small wave, and this is a point break that rarely breaks as it is, so conditions would have to be absolutely perfect. The fact that it's showing up as a rare possibility is notable, but it's a long shot.
The afternoon of the 15th drops back to 1.0 ft, so that morning window is the only real chance. Don't hold your breath. This is a classic case of a blank run for the area. It's a tough watch, but sometimes that's the way it goes.

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.
