Table - best surf conditions forecast for Sao Pedro over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the menu for Sao Pedro over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you—this is going to be a tough stretch. The charts are looking flat, and the wind isn't doing us any favours for most of the period.
Looking at the whole 16-day run, we've got a long, dry spell coming up. Starting from Monday the 13th, there's simply no decent surf on offer at all. We're looking at a gap of days with nothing worth paddling out for. The first few days are tiny, with little windswells and choppy, cross-onshore conditions that aren't going to produce anything rideable. It's a real bummer.
We do get a couple of tiny pulses way down the line, but don't get your hopes up. On Thursday the 22nd of July, there's a hint of a 0.3ft swell from the SW with a 13-second period, but the wind is a fresh cross-offshore at 18.6 mph and the wave energy is tiny (7). That's barely a ripple. Then on Saturday the 25th, we see a similar story: 0.3ft from the S with a long 16-second period, again with a moderate cross-offshore. The combined energy is still pitiful (7). These are the only real "standouts" in the whole outlook, and I'm using that term very loosely. They are the best on offer, but that's not saying much.
Because the swell is so small and the wind is mostly cross-offshore and often strong (18.6 mph on many days), the setup here at Sao Pedro (Sao Pedro) point break won't have any shape. The break itself is a sheltered spot, which normally likes a good SW swell, but we're not getting that. It's a point break that rarely breaks, so a blank run like this isn't totally unheard of here. Honestly, with the wind we've got and no wave face, you'd have a better chance on a kite than a surfboard right now.
Hang in there, but leave the boards at home for this one.

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.
