The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me tell you, it's a tough stretch ahead for the Troia area. I've looked over the charts and honestly, we're in a real dry spell. There's just no decent surf on the cards for the entire 16-day outlook.
We kick things off on Thursday, July 23rd, and straight away it's flat. Tiny swell at 0.3ft from the south with a 13-second period, but the combined energy is a measly (3) – that's nothing. Winds are cross or cross-on shore, so even if there was something, it'd be chopped up. This pattern pretty much holds the course. Through Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th, we see a tiny bump to maybe 2ft – 3ft, but it's got a super short, weak period around 5-6 seconds and more cross-shore wind. The energy creeps up to just (51) or (69), but the wave comment says it all: "poor surf conditions". Sunday the 26th through to the end of the run on August 7th is a ghost town. Most sessions show the swell dash as "-", meaning zero. Combined energy is often (0).
We do get some glassy or clean conditions on the mornings of July 28th, August 4th, and August 7th, with light or offshore breezes. But the cruel joke is there's no swell to go with it. If I'm being totally honest, with such weak, wind-affected swell and mostly beach-break setups, this stretch might actually look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There's just nothing to recommend for a surfer.
To be fair, Troia is listed as an inconsistent break, and this is a perfect example of why. A blank run like this is pretty normal here. Forecasts can change though, and we can only hope the next run brings something with a bit of life. For now, leave the board in the shed.

Information about the Troia Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Troia provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Troia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Troia 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 (Troia) 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 Troia 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.
Troia is 9 km (6 miles) from Setubal. If you plan a holiday in Portugal - Alentejo, look for hotels and other accommodation in Setubal. Setubal has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
