The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for our little corner of the world. I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days at Embare are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long, flat stretch ahead.
We kick off on Thursday the 23rd of July with basically nothing. That bleak run holds through the weekend, and into the next week. It’s not until Saturday the 2nd of August that we see a bump, and even then, it’s messy. The whole two-week window is a struggle.
The only real glimmer of hope – and I use that word loosely – is on Saturday the 2nd of August in the afternoon. A pulse of 4 ft swell from the east is forecast, wrapping in with a bit of energy. The combined energy hits 280 (moderate wave energy), which is the biggest reading we get. But the wind is cross-onshore from the SW, making it a bit of a battle. It’s the most size we’ll see, but it’s not going to be the clean, polished stuff you dream about.
Honestly, for the best chance of an actual surf, you’re looking at Friday the 7th of August. The morning has glassy conditions with a 2 ft, 11-second swell from the SSE. That 11-second period means there’s some shape to it, and the combined energy is 144 (moderate wave energy). The wind is glassy from the WNW, so the surface will be clean. It’s still small, barely waist-high, but it’s the most rideable wave in the entire forecast. Get it while you can.
Other than that, the whole period is a write-off. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, the swell is tiny, and the energy is weak. For a few days, it’s so poor that you’d be better off checking the forecasts for the coast. This is a tough one for the paddle crew.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the horizon. The ocean will turn again.
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.
