The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the local surf picture for the next couple of weeks. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got one spot on the radar, and it’s a bit of a mixed bag. The forecast kicks off on Monday the 24th of August, but the first few days are pretty average. The wait is on for a real window of clean waves.
The standout period is shaping up to be Wednesday the 26th of August. That morning, we’ve got glassy conditions at Embare with a 4ft SSE swell carrying a long 16-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 814, and with that offshore-style wind, it’s going to be clean. Being a sheltered spot, that long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely here. This is your best bet for a proper session.
Tuesday the 25th also looks okay, with a clean morning as a light ENE cross-off breeze cleans up a 5ft S swell (14-second period, 745 energy). It’s not as good as Wednesday, but still worth a paddle.
Friday the 28th of August has a glassy morning with a small 4ft ESE swell, but the period is short at 8 seconds, so the energy is low at 416. It’s clean, but there’s not much push behind it.
From Saturday the 29th, the swell drops away significantly. We’re looking at days of tiny, weak surf with poor conditions. A few glassy mornings crop up around the 5th and 6th of September, but the swell is under 3ft and the energy is very weak (under 209). There’s a pulse of S swell on the 2nd of September around 5ft, but the wind is cross-on and it’s a marginal session at best.
The deeper water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
To sum it up: Wednesday the 26th of August morning is the pick of the period. The rest of the window is mostly flat or average, with a few clean but small windows. Keep an eye on the midday glass-offs, but don’t get your hopes up for anything solid.
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.
