The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. I’ve been digging through the long-range charts for the next couple of weeks, and it’s a bit of a slow burn at Embare. Don't get too excited just yet, because there’s a lot of nothing on the horizon before things finally turn on.
The first real window we get is on the morning of Saturday, August 12th. After a string of messy, choppy days, the wind is forecast to go glassy, and we’re looking at a clean 4ft swell from the SSE with a 12-second period. Water temp is right around average for the time of year. It’s not going to be huge, but it’ll be the first clean, surfable wave we’ve seen. The energy is moderate, sitting at 472, but after the junk, it’ll feel like a luxury.
Now, the one to really get excited about is the morning of Friday, August 18th. That’s the standout of the whole period. We’ve got a solid 7ft swell from the east with a 9-second period. The energy jumps way up to 972, which is strong. It’s going to have some power behind it, so this is for the experienced surfers only. Anyone who’s not comfortable in bigger, lumpier surf should sit this one out. A light cross-onshore breeze will be there, but the sheer size and power make it the best option on offer by a long shot.
Before that, we’ve got a couple of small windows. The morning of Wednesday, August 14th, is glassy with a clean 4ft, but it’s nothing special. And the morning of August 17th has a clean 3ft from the south, but it’s a step down.
After that big day on the 18th, the swell just dies. The last week of the window is flat, tiny, and not worth paddling out for. You’d be better off saving your energy.
So, there it is. Patience is key. A clean but small session on the 12th, and one big, powerful day on the 18th for the experts. The rest is a waiting game.
Rusty out.

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.
