Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s coming our way for Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with ya – we’ve got a long, quiet spell ahead. The first proper surfable window doesn't show up until Thursday morning, 16th July. Before that, it’s mostly tiny, weak, and messy. You’d be wasting your time paddling out. From Friday 3rd July right through to Monday 13th July, there’s basically nothing worth riding – a real flat patch with barely a ripple, and winds that are mostly cross or cross-onshore, messing up what little bump there is. That’s nearly a week and a half of meh.
Now, Thursday morning 16th July looks our best bet, and it’s a bit of a surprise. We get a clean, glassy start – calm air, no wind, just a light breeze from the SW – with a 5ft swell from the NNW. The period’s short at 7 seconds, so it’s a bit of a windswell, but the complete lack of wind means the surface will be like glass. The combined wave energy is moderate (274), so there’s enough push to get you onto something. This is a beginner-friendly break, so that size is fine, but it’s not gonna be a world-class day. For the experienced crew, you might find it a little fat and slow because of the short period, but for a clean, fun session, this is as good as it gets in this outlook.
Friday morning 17th July also shows a bump in swell – 6ft from the NNW (energy 421), but the wind turns cross-onshore from the SW at 6 mph. That’ll put a few ripples on the face, and the current and chop could make it a bit bumpy. It’s a marginal call but worth checking if the wind drops. The water temp is sitting at about 65°F, which is bang on average for this time of year – nothing unusual there.
So to sum up: the whole first half of July is a write-off. Your best shot is the glassy morning of Thursday 16th July at Cabedelo, with clean 5ft NNW swell. It’s not a standout for the ages, but it’s the only real option we get.
Rusty out.
