The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Embare. The water is sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, 70°, so it’s a nice welcome if you’re getting in.
We’ve got a long stretch ahead, and honestly, it starts off pretty grim. There’s nothing worth getting excited about until Wednesday morning on the 12th. The first few days are mostly a write-off with poor conditions and small, weak energy. The swell on Sunday the 9th is only 3 ft from the SSE with a long period of 13 seconds, but the onshore breeze and only 305 units of combined energy (weak to moderate) just aren’t doing it any favours.
Things finally turn a corner on Wednesday morning the 12th. We get a glassy window with 5 ft SSE swell, a 12-second period, and moderate combined energy of 571. That’s your first real chance at a clean wave. The wind is dead calm, so the surface will be like a mirror. Embare is a sheltered spot, and it’s consistent, so you’ll get waves, but keep in mind it’s an intermediate break.
The standout session of the whole outlook is Thursday morning the 13th. Glassy conditions, zero wind, and 4 ft from the SSE with a 13-second period. Combined energy is a solid 637 – moderate, but punchy enough for a longboard or a funboard. It’ll be clean as a whistle. That’s the one to pencil in.
Friday morning the 14th is also glassy, with 4 ft from the S, but the energy drops to 439. Still surfable, still clean, but not as much push.
After that, the surf quality falls off a cliff again. Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th are back to poor conditions with onshore winds and dropping energy. By the time we hit the 19th, the swell is tiny (2 ft) and the energy is below 100 – weak and not worth the paddle.
There’s a glimmer of hope on Monday the 24th. The swell picks up to 4 ft from the S with a 14-second period and a moderate 688 units of energy, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore, creating chop. It’s not going to be clean, but there’ll be some size for anyone desperate for a wave.
Overall, the best bet by far is Thursday morning the 13th. Get on it while it’s glassy. The rest of the fortnight is mostly a waiting game with poor conditions and weak energy.

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.
