Alright, let me tell you what we’re looking at. Honestly, for the next couple of weeks, there isn’t a single standout day where everything lines up perfectly. The closest we get to something worthwhile is on Saturday the 18th, but even that comes with a massive caveat.
For the first week and a half, the swell is just too small and weak to get excited about. We’ve got a long stretch of mornings with glassy conditions and tiny waves, like on Monday the 6th with 3ft of S swell and a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy reads 363 (moderate), but the wave comment says it all: surfable but very ordinary. The water is sitting at 70°, which is about normal for the time of year with a slight bump of 1° above average. Nothing to write home about.
The pattern continues through the week: mornings glassy, afternoons a mess. The swell stays under 3ft, mostly from the SSE or SE, with periods ranging from 9 to 14 seconds. The combined energy drops as low as 88 (weak) on the morning of the 16th. There’s a bit of a bump on Friday the 17th with 5ft of SSE swell and 8-second period, but the north offshore wind in the morning keeps it clean. However, the short period (8 seconds) means weak, lumpy waves—better for a longboard or a kite than a shortboard.
Now, Saturday the 18th. This is the one. Embare gets a morning of 4ft of S swell with a 13-second period, combined energy of 541 (moderate to strong), and glassy conditions. That’s a proper groundswell, long-period, and the water will be clean. The direction is straight out of the south, which is the optimum for this spot. This is your best bet, but you’ve got to get it early. By afternoon, the wind swings southwest at 12 mph, cross-on and choppy, and it’s game over.
After that, it fades again. Sunday the 19th and Monday the 20th have small, glassy mornings but the swell is tiny. The 20th has a very long-period 18-second swell, but it’s only 1ft—too small to ride. The 21st is similar.
So the bottom line: If you’re itching for a paddle, Saturday morning the 18th is the only real option. Glassy, chest-high S swell, good energy. But it’s a one-morning window. After that, we’re back to waiting. It’s a pretty flat run for a spot that can be better. Stick to a longboard or a kite in the breezy afternoons if you need to get wet.

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.
