The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Embare.
To be straight with you, we’ve got a bit of a flat spell to get through. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn't show up until the morning of Saturday, August 1st, and even then it's tiny. We’re looking at about a 2ft S swell with a short 11-second period, so not much punch there. The water's sitting at 69°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. The glassy conditions that Saturday morning are a nice treat, but the wave energy is weak (112).
We've got a long stretch of small, weak surf right through until Friday the 14th of August. Most days are seeing swell under 3ft, with periods that are all over the shop, and the wind is often not playing ball. There’s a bit of glass on the morning of Monday the 10th, but with a pathetic 1ft E swell and a 7-second period, it's barely a ripple.
The only day that really perks things up is Friday the 14th of August. That morning we see a jump to a 5ft S swell, with a proper long period of 15 seconds. That's a groundswell with some real energy (1092), and with a light cross-shore breeze, it could clean up nicely. That 5ft is right on the edge for beginners, but for intermediates it’s a solid option. Just keep in mind, a long-period swell like that can be a bit fat and gutless on a beach break, but it should offer some good lines.
Saturday the 15th of August sees the swell jump to 7ft and 8ft, but the wind goes bad, turning it into a messy, choppy cross-onshore situation. The energy is massive (1386 and 3016), but the wind ruins it for a paddle surfer. For a kite surfer, that setup might actually look pretty damn interesting.
So, the standout here is the morning of Friday, 14th of August. It's the only session in the whole run where the size, period, and wind align. The rest is a write-off. That's how it goes sometimes.
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.
