The Lowdown
Right then, let’s take a look at what’s on offer for Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo. First thing you need to know: there’s no surf worth paddling out for right now. The whole first week is a write-off—Monday the 27th through to Sunday the 2nd of August is a total blank. The wind’s all wrong, mostly cross-onshore, and those swell numbers are tiny. It’s a frustrating start, but it’s just how it goes sometimes around here.
Monday morning the 27th does have a glassy start with a 4ft swell from the NNW, but it’s a short-period 6-second windswell, and the combined energy is only 200—weak. It’s not enough to get excited about, and the afternoon turns into a choppy mess. Tuesday morning the 28th is glassy again with a slightly better 4ft NW swell at 10 seconds, but again, it’s not going to be consistent, and the wind swings onshore later.
Honestly, the only highlight in this whole 16-day window is the morning of Monday the 10th of August. That’s a long way out, so take it with a pinch of salt, but it’s the only one that stands out. You’ve got a 7ft swell from the NNW, period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a solid 504 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a moderate cross-shore, which is workable, but the swell is over 8ft, so this is expert-only territory—too big for anyone but the very experienced. It’s also still a beach/pier setup, so that short period and cross-shore wind will make it pretty lumpy. For the brave, it’s the best on offer, but it’s not a classic.
Before that, the morning of Saturday the 9th of August has a 5ft NW swell with a 10-second period and 425 combined energy, but the wind is a fresh cross-shore at 25 km/h, so it’ll be messy. The morning of Tuesday the 11th of August also has a 7ft NNW swell, but again, it’s too big for this break and the wind is fresh cross-shore.
Bottom line: save your energy for the second week. The first week is a total loss. The 10th of August morning is the only real standout, but it’s for experts only, and it’s a long-range call. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.
