G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it's a slow start. The first few days are a bit of a write-off for a decent paddle. We've got a bit of a wait on our hands. The swell is small and the wind is messy, so don't bother rushing down. It's not until the morning of Monday the 20th that things start to get interesting, and then there's another promising window around Monday the 27th. Between now and then, there's a fair bit of flat, weak surf.

Cabedelo (Figueira da Foz - Cabedelo) is a beach/pier setup, and it's fairly consistent but it's exposed to the swell. The water is sitting at 64°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year.

Let's talk about the best of it. The standout is the morning of Monday the 20th of July. We've got a solid 8 ft swell coming from the NNW with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is strong, reading 868. The kicker is the wind: a glassy 3 mph from the WSW. That's offshore, which will keep the waves clean. The swell is getting up there in size—over 8 ft is expert territory, so this is one for the experienced crew. It's a big groundswell, and with a period just under that 11-second mark, it's got decent shape. Keep in mind the afternoon gets a bit choppy with a cross-onshore wind, so the morning session is the go.

Now, looking further out, the morning of Monday the 27th of July is another one to keep an eye on. We're looking at a 6 ft swell from the NW, period 11 seconds, and a combined energy of 949. That's strong. The wind is a cross-on from the NW at 9 mph, which is a bit of a shame, but the swell size is good. The afternoon picks up to 7 ft with a longer 12-second period and a cross-shore wind, which is a better combo. The energy is very strong at 1092. This one is promising but less certain so far out.

For the rest of the period, there are a few mornings with glassy conditions and small surf, like Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th, but the waves are ordinary—just 2 ft to 2 ft. It's surfable, but nothing to get excited about.

So, to sum it up: the morning of Monday the 20th is your best bet for a proper session, but it's a big swell for experts only. The Monday the 27th is a long-range call that looks good, but don't hold your breath. The rest is pretty quiet.

Rusty.
