The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Embare.
The next week and a half is a real mixed bag, with some clean windows sneaking in between a lot of messy, onshore slop. Don’t get too excited about the next few days – Friday the 11th has a little bit of glassy 2ft S swell (205 energy) but the rain and ordinary conditions mean it's not worth paddling out for. Saturday and Sunday are blown out, with onshore wind and choppy conditions. The wait will be worth it for Monday the 14th though.
Monday morning is the standout in this whole outlook. We get a jump in size with a 7ft swell out of the SE, with just a light cross-off breeze. The conditions call for a clean morning and the break is consistent for intermediate surfers. Energy is moderate at 763, and the period is short at 8 seconds, but that easterly direction keeps it lined up okay for the sheltered Embare setup. This is the best on offer, and it’s not even close. After that, Monday afternoon starts to get messy again.
The next cleanish moment doesn't pop up until Friday the 18th morning. A smaller 3ft SSE groundswell (576 energy) with a clean cross-off breeze again. It's smaller but the shape will be better. You'll have to put up with a lot of poor days between those two windows though; the following Saturday and Sunday the 20th bring glassy conditions but the swell is tiny, just around 3ft. After that, the outlook goes flat and poor until the end of the forecast period on the 26th.
The water temp is about average for this time of year.
So, to keep it short: Monday the 14th morning is your best bet for a proper session. Friday the 18th morning is a good backup if you are patient. The rest of it is a bit of a write-off.
Rusty.

Information about the Embare Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Embare provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Embare can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Embare 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 (Embare) 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 Embare 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.
Embare is 8 km (5 miles) from the city of Praia Grande. If you plan a holiday in São Paulo, look for hotels and other accommodation in Praia Grande. Praia Grande has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
