The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Embare. It’s a sheltered little spot that likes a south swell, for the intermediate surfer, and it breaks pretty consistent. Water temp is about 71°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
First chance to get wet is Friday morning, September 4th. It’s only about 3ft from the SSE, with an 11-second period and low energy (169). Wind is glassy from the north, so it’ll be clean, but it’s tiny.
Then it goes quiet. From Saturday the 5th through Tuesday the 8th, it’s mostly poor or flat. Sunday the 6th has some size – 5ft – but with a short 7-second period and southerly winds, it’s just a choppy mess. That’s kite-surfing weather, not paddle surfing.
Tuesday the 8th morning is the real standout. We get about 6ft from the ESE, short period, but solid energy (585) and glassy east winds. It’ll be clean and punchy. That’s your best session of the whole 16 days.
After that it drops fast. Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th see 3ft and 2ft, mostly clean but weak. Then from Friday the 11th through Monday the 14th, it’s flat – 1ft to 2ft with hardly any energy. A real dead run.
Things perk up a bit around Tuesday the 15th. Morning shows 3ft from the SSE (385 energy), but the wind is cross-onshore and messy. Wednesday the 16th afternoon jumps to 7ft from the SSE, which is big for this sheltered spot – but with short period and cross-shore chop, it’s for experts only.
Thursday the 17th morning is a solid backup. Shows 5ft from the SE, offshore winds from the NNW, and good energy (474). Clean and surfable. But the afternoon turns ugly – 4ft with a very long 17-second period and howling onshore winds. That long-period swell won’t wrap in well here.
The final days (18th to 19th September) fade back to 4ft down to 2ft, all with onshore or cross-onshore wind and rain. Not worth it.
Bottom line: Tuesday the 8th morning is your best bet – glassy, clean, and punchy. Thursday the 17th morning is a promising backup. The rest is either too small, too messy, or too blown out.
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.
