The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Embare. This is a sheltered little spot that’s mostly a tease over the next two weeks, but there are a couple of windows that could get you wet.
The first few days are a write-off. Sunday afternoon and Monday are a mess with poor surf conditions and cross-onshore winds. The swell is there on Monday (5 ft from the SSE, moderate energy of 522) but that ESE wind at 15 mph is just ruining it. You’ll want to sit that one out.
The first real glimmer comes on Tuesday, September 8th in the morning. We’re down to 3 ft of SSE swell (10 seconds), but the wind is *glass* – a perfect zero. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 71°, which is a nice bonus. It’s not big, but it’s clean. The combined energy is still moderate at 402, so there’s push behind it. This is your best bet in the first week for a quiet, small-wave session.
After that, it gets marginal again. There’s a long gap through the middle of the week with tiny, poor surf. We get a spike on Monday, September 14th with 6 ft from the SE and strong energy (845), but it’s crossed up and the wind is light cross-shore, making it messy. Not the one.
The true standout, and the one I’m circling on the calendar, is Saturday, September 19th in the morning. That’s a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it, but it looks promising. We’ve got 6 ft of E swell with glassy conditions and a solid 572 combined energy. The wind is dead calm – that’s proper clean. Given the swell direction is S and the optimum is S, it’s a perfect match. This will be the best size and quality of the whole forecast. The only catch is the period is short at 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit fat and less lined up, but for a sheltered spot, that glassy wind and chest-high swell is a gift.
For the rest of the second week, it trails off. Sunday the 20th has a clean 3 ft from the SSE with a very long 15-second period (energy of 451), but with that long period, it’s going to be fickle and straight at a beach setup like this. Better for the experts who can handle the lulls.
Overall, the surf is inconsistent here, so don’t expect a run of good days. If you’re keen, the Tuesday morning glass-off is your early call, but the 19th is the one with real potential.
Stay salty,
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.
