Triangulo Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, listen up. We’re lookin’ at Triangulo, a little reef break that’s tucked away, needing a solid SW swell to work. It’s an inconsistent spot, but when it’s on, it’s a fun little wave. The water is way warmer than normal for this time of year, sittin’ at 70°, a whole 7° above what we’d expect, so you won’t need a thick suit.

The first real standout is Wednesday morning, July 8th. We got a 4ft SW groundswell with a very long 15-second period, light cross-offshore breezes from the SSE at 15 km/h, and the wave energy is moderate at 614. The forecast says “expect good surf conditions,” which is about as clean as it gets for this place. That long period means the sets will be fat and smooth, buildin’ up nicely on the reef. It’s a beginner-level wave, so it’s not gonna throw you a barrel, but for a clean, cruisy session, you’d be a fool to miss it. Expect crowds, so get in early.

After that, the forecast gets a bit ugly. For the next week and a half, it’s a real mixed bag – mostly cross or cross-on breezes, with the swell sittin’ around 3ft to 5ft. The wave energy stays moderate, but the wind is just never quite right. There’s a spot on the morning of July 16th where the wind turns cross-off again, and the swell is 4ft from the SSW, with a 13-second period, but it’s still a bit of a gamble. The combined energy is 839, which is solid, but it’s a one-off and not quite the quality of that first Wednesday.

The real gold in the diary is Monday, July 20th, in the morning. This is a long way out, so take it with a grain of salt, but the numbers are mouth-waterin’. The forecast shows a 7ft SW swell with a 13-second period, and a clean cross-off breeze from the SSE at 15 km/h. The combined energy jumps to a very strong 1418. That’s proper grunt. For a break like Triangulo, that’s a big, powerful groundswell. It’s gonna be a wave for experienced surfers only – the reef will be workin’ hard, and the 7ft height is well into expert territory. But if it lines up, it’ll be a session to remember. The wind is clean, the swell is huge, and it’s a rare, powerful event for this inconsistent spot.

The rest of the 16 days is mostly lacklustre. The wind is either onshore or cross-shore, and the swell is either too small or too weak. The afternoon of July 19th shows a 5ft SW swell, but it’s bein’ knocked around by a cross-shore breeze. It’s just not worth paddlin’ out for.

So, the two standouts: Wednesday morning, July 8th, for a clean, cruisy beginner session. And Monday morning, July 20th, for the big, expert-level groundswell. Don’t hold your breath for the middle part.
