Table - best surf conditions forecast for Sao Pedro over the next 16 days.


The Lowdown

Right, let’s have a look at what’s on the table. Honestly, the outlook for the next 16 days is a flat, quiet spell for the most part. We’ve got a long gap of no real surf to start, and it stays that way for a while. The only break on the radar is São Pedro, and it’s a sheltered point that rarely breaks, so when it does, it’s a treat, but you’ll need patience.

We’re looking at the first possible surf on Monday, 31 August. The morning has a tiny 1 ft swell from the west, with a period of 11 seconds, and a fresh 19 mph north cross-offshore wind. Wave energy is weak at 21, and the conditions are clean, but it’s poor surf – really small and weak. The afternoon drops even more to 0.3 ft from the SW with a 16-second period – that long period groundswell is there, but with next to no height, it’s just a ripple. Tuesday and most of Wednesday stay in that same boat: 0.7 ft from the SSW, periods around 15-16 seconds, cross-off winds, and energy staying under 24. Clean, but you’d be fighting for a knee-high wave that reforms on a point.

By Wednesday afternoon, the wind eases to a moderate breeze, and we get a 0.7 ft swell with a 16-second period, energy at 24. Still a poor surf call. Thursday morning brings the lightest breeze, 6 mph north cross-off, and the same 0.7 ft from the SSW at 14 seconds – this is as close as we get to a stand-out. But honestly, it’s not a day to get excited about. The water temperature anomaly isn’t mentioned here, so we’ll skip that, but it’s the kind of day you’d sit on the cliff and watch for a dolphin rather than paddle out.

After that, Friday 4 September onwards you’ve got a drop to 0.3 ft from the SW, periods of 12-13 seconds, and energy falling to single digits – 7, 6, 8. Wind stays light to moderate, offshore or cross-off, so the surface is glassy or clean, but there’s nothing to ride. Saturday afternoon, 5 September, has a gusty 16 mph west-northwest cross-shore wind and no swell at all – a total flat spell with a cross-chop. Sunday 6 September afternoon pokes a little 1 ft from the south with a short 4-second period – that’s windswell, not groundswell, and energy is only 10. Too weak to matter.

From Monday 7 September right through to Saturday 12 September, you’ve got rows of zeros – no swell, no energy, just clean flat conditions. The winds are mostly light to moderate, with some offshore on the 12th morning, but it’s a lake. On Sunday 13 September, there’s a tiny 0.3 ft from the south at 12 seconds, energy of 3 – that’s a whisper. Monday 14 September has a 0.3 ft from the south at 11 seconds, with a cross-onshore wind, so you’ve got a choppy, messy little bump. Tuesday 15 September is the last record – a cross-onshore wind, no swell, just chop.

So the best on offer? There isn’t one. The whole 16-day window is a flat run for São Pedro. It’s a point that rarely breaks, and this forecast backs that up. If you’re desperate, the cleanest, most consistent wind days are in the first few days of September with that tiny 0.7 ft swell, but you’d need a longboard and a lot of hope. This is one of those periods where the forecast says “stay home and wax your board for next week.”

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.
