Surf Forecasts:
The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story in feet and miles. This whole stretch is a flat spell—no waves worth paddling for, just two weeks of waiting on nothing.
Vama Veche is the only spot in play, and from September 16th all the way through October 1st, there isn’t a single surfable day. The combined energy of all swells directed here is 0. Every morning and afternoon is flagged as “poor surf conditions,” with zero scores top to bottom.
There are some mornings that look clean—like Friday September 18th and Saturday September 19th with glassy wind (S at 3.1 mph and E at 3.1 mph)—and even a few offshore breezes later on, like Thursday September 24th with W wind at 15.5 mph. But without a bump of swell, glassy water is just flat water.
Vama Veche is a inconsistent, east-facing beach break that’s best for beginners when it’s working. It’s not working. The water temp isn’t even worth mentioning because there’s no surf to talk about.
This kind of dead run is normal here sometimes. Forecasts can always change, but for now, hang up the wetsuit and enjoy the beach.

Information about the Vama Veche Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Vama Veche provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Vama Veche can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Vama Veche 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 (Vama Veche) 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 Vama Veche 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.
