The Lowdown
G'day, this is Rusty. Alright, let's be straight with you – the next few days at Praia da Boraceia are a bit of a write-off. We're looking at a pretty flat and ugly start, so don't bother rushing down. The water is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least it won't be freezing while you're sitting there waiting for something to happen.
We've got a big gap of nothing until Thursday, 3rd September. That morning, the stars finally align a little. The swell will be a clean 4 ft from the SSE, with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is glassy out of the east. The wave energy is moderate at 317. It's not pumping, but it'll be surfable and clean – a good session for a beginner to intermediate.
The real standout, the one you want to circle on the calendar, is Monday, 14th September. That morning, we see a solid 7 ft swell from the ESE with an 8-second period. The energy is strong at 995. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and the conditions are set to be very good. This is a punchy, powerful swell, and with no wind, it'll be a proper session. It's a bit on the bigger side, so this one is for the experienced crew only – beginners will be in over their heads. The long-range call is promising, but we'll see how it firms up.
Outside of that, the rest of the window is a mix of small, weak, or choppy conditions. There's a brief window on Tuesday, 8th September, with a 3 ft S swell and glassy winds, but it's nothing special. The empty periods are long, but this spot is fairly consistent, so don't be surprised if things pick up again.
Stay patient, and lock in that Monday.
Rusty.

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