The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what's on the cards for Azarujinha. It's a bit of a mixed bag over the next couple of weeks, but there are a couple of sessions that will get the heart pumping.
The week kicks off on Thursday, August 27th, but honestly, it's a write-off. A messy 8ft cross-shore wind from the west, with a weak, short-period 7-second swell and combined energy of just 574, has the place all chopped up. Not worth getting wet for.
Now, Friday morning, August 28th, is where the magic happens. The wind swings around to a light offshore from the north at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a proper 8ft groundswell rolling in from the WNW with a long 11-second period. The combined energy is a solid 1279, showing there’s some serious power in the water. That’s a big, clean wave for experienced surfers only – over 8ft is expert territory, and at 8ft, it's pushing it for intermediates. The water temp is 68°, which is about average for this time of year.
The rest of the period drops off significantly. Friday afternoon stays clean but the swell eases. Saturday, August 29th, is still rideable with a moderate offshore and a 6ft NW swell (period 9 seconds), but it's not in the same league. Sunday and Monday are smaller and more ordinary, with clean conditions but waves dropping below 5ft. The following week is small, with only marginal surf and tiny energy readings. There’s a slight pulse around Sunday, September 6th, with a clean 3ft to 4ft NW swell and an 11-second period, offering some nice, gentle waves. The morning of September 9th also looks promising with glassy conditions and a 3ft WNW groundswell with a 12-second period, giving the reefs a nice long wall to work with.
Overall, the standout is undeniably Friday morning, August 28th. That's the one to circle. The clean, offshore wind and that powerful groundswell will have Azarujinha looking its best. The rest of the month is a slow slide into smaller conditions, but the window on September 6th and 9th offers some fun, smaller waves for a more relaxed paddle.

Information about the Azarujinha Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Azarujinha provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Azarujinha can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Azarujinha surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Azarujinha) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Azarujinha may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
