Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Figueira da Foz.

Honestly, it’s a bit of a quiet spell we're looking at. The next couple of weeks are going to be a real test of patience. We’ve got a decent stretch of very small, weak, and mostly choppy conditions ahead, so you’ll be waiting a while for anything that feels like a proper session.

We start off Tuesday the 7th and it’s pretty grim. Tiny 1ft to 2ft swell from the WNW with short periods, and a cross-shore wind that's got a bit of chop on it. Total energy is a weak 26 to 31, so it’s just not worth the paddle. This flat, poor-quality trend keeps up through the whole first week and into the next. There’s a lot of days with cross-onshore breezes and lumpy water. Wednesday the 8th through Saturday the 11th is much the same story – waist-high at best, messy, and the wave state is just poor.

The first little glimmer shows up on Sunday the 12th. The morning has a glassy feel with light south-southwest airs, and that makes a big difference. The swell is still only 2ft from the NW, but the combined energy has bumped up to a moderate 114. It’s a small, gentle wave but at least it’ll be clean. Overall, it’s still a very ordinary day.

We see another glassy morning on Tuesday the 14th, with a 1ft swell from the WNW. Period ticks up to 11 seconds, which is nice, and with a 61 energy reading it’s surfable but tiny. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing strange going on there.

Looking further out, the second week is still mostly a write-off. Monday the 20th sees the swell nudge up to 4ft from the NW, with energy hitting a moderate 131. The wind is cross-shore, so it won’t be pristine, but it’s the biggest pulse in the whole outlook. Still, with short 7-second period and a gentle cross-chop, don't expect miracles.

If you’re desperate, your best bet is the glassy Sunday morning on the 12th. It’s not a standout by any stretch, but clean conditions on a tiny wave are better than choppy close-outs. The Cabedelo break (Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo) is a beach and pier setup, exposed to the west, and it’s fairly consistent, so it does tend to pick up whatever is around. The optimum direction is a W swell, and we’re mostly getting WNW or NW, so it’s not perfectly aligned.

Overall, it’s a lean period. Keep the board waxed and the coffee hot – forecasts can change, and it’s rarely this quiet for long.

Rusty.
