The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what's coming up.
Honestly, it's a tough stretch. There's a lot of small, weak swell and less-than-ideal wind around, so don't expect much. We're looking at a lot of poor conditions and "surfable but very ordinary" days. The water is sitting at 69°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year.
The first real glimmer of hope isn't until Sunday, August 9th. The morning shows a clean 4ft swell from the SSE, with a light offshore from the north. The energy is still only moderate, at 182, but it's the cleanest it'll be for a while. After that, things get messy again with a bigger pulse of swell on the 10th, but with strong onshore wind, it'll be a choppy mess. That 5ft, 15-second period groundswell combined with a 22 mph onshore wind makes it more of a kite session than a paddle session.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Saturday, August 15th. We get glassy conditions with a clean 4ft, 11-second swell from the SSE. The energy is moderate at 362, and it's the best-looking window in the whole run. The wind is light and offshore, so it should be clean. This is your best bet. Keep in mind, any swell over 5ft starts to get a bit much for beginners, so this one is for the crew with some experience.
After that, we're back into small, ordinary conditions to finish the run. There's not much to get excited about, but the 15th is the day to circle on the calendar.
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.
