Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks around here. I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The forecast is looking pretty grim for a solid stretch, so we’re going to have to wait it out.

We’re starting off with a long, quiet period. From Monday the 6th of July right through to Monday the 13th of July, the surf is basically flat. Swell heights are stuck at a pathetic 0.3 ft with wave energy readings barely ticking over – we're talking values between 2 and 38, which is seriously weak. The water is sitting at a mild 70°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about all the excitement we're getting.

The only spot on the menu, Sao Pedro, is a sheltered point break that rarely breaks for a reason. It needs a specific SW swell and even then, it’s a beginner wave for the most part. The wind during this first week is mostly a cross-offshore breeze, which is fine, but with no swell to work with, it doesn't matter. The conditions are clean, but there's simply nothing to ride. Keep your board in the car, but maybe don't bother taking it out.

Now, after a long wait, we finally get a little bump of hope on Tuesday the 14th of July. But, don’t get too excited – Tuesday morning shows zero swell, and the afternoon only brings back that tiny 0.3 ft. The real change comes on Saturday the 18th of July. The swell starts to show a little life, pushing up to 1 ft from the West with a period of 10 seconds. The wave energy even climbs to 48, which is still low but a step up from the dust we've been seeing. With a NNW wind around 22 mph blowing cross-offshore, it’ll be clean but the power just isn't there.

The best of the whole 16-day window, and I mean the *only* highlight, looks to be Sunday the 19th of July. Early morning, we have a 1 ft West swell with a short 9-second period and a wave energy of 40. The wind is a strong cross-offshore breeze at 25 mph. It's still tiny and messy, just not the kind of thing you'd paddle out for unless you're desperate for a float. For the experienced crew, it might be a chance to get wet, but beginners should stay well clear as the winds will be whipping.

After that, it fades back into nothing. Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st of July drop back to the same old 0.3 ft SW slop.

Honestly, for the next two and a half weeks, the surf is just not happening. On a setup like this sheltered point, a blank run like this is pretty normal. The forecasts can change, but for now, there isn't a single standout session. If you’re a kite surfer, the stronger winds at the end of the window might be more interesting than trying to paddle a piece of foam. But for us paddle surfers? It’s a watching and waiting game.

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.
