The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's brewing at Embare.
Thursday the 10th is a bit of a tease. We've got a small, clean 2ft groundswell from the SSE with a nice 12-second period, and it's dead glassy first thing. The combined energy is moderate at 186, but the waves are just too ordinary to get excited about. It's a quiet start.
The next week is pretty much a write-off. Friday through to the following Wednesday is plagued by onshore and cross-shore winds, keeping the surf small and choppy. Conditions just aren't there.
Now, Monday the 14th is where things get interesting. By the afternoon, that SE swell builds to 7ft from the east, and the combined energy jumps right up to 918 – that's some proper punch. With a light, cross-offshore breeze, it's going to be clean. That's the standout in this whole outlook, but at that size it's one for the experienced crew only.
Tuesday the 15th drops right back off, and we're into another patch of messy, small surf through Wednesday the 16th.
Thursday the 17th morning has a pulse of 5ft swell from the SSE with an 11-second period, giving us strong energy at 694, but the cross-shore wind keeps it from being clean perfection.
The next real highlight is Friday the 18th morning. We get a solid 6ft easterly swell with moderate energy at 795, and it's glassy. The wind is off the land, and it's smooth. That's the other winner in this run; a clean, chunky morning. It'll be a good session for intermediates.
After that, we fade again. The glassy patches on Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st are only offering tiny, knee-high waves. The last few days of the window drift into nothing special, with a glimmer of glassy 3ft on Friday the 25th, but it's not enough to get the heart racing.
So, to wrap it up: the best bets are the afternoon of Monday the 14th for experts, and the glassy morning of Friday the 18th for the intermediates. Don't hold your breath on the rest.
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.
