The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Embare.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with ya—this is a long, lean stretch. The first surf that’s even worth paddling out for doesn’t show up until Tuesday, 1st September, and even then, it’s nothing special. From now until then, you’re looking at a blank few days with tiny swell and poor conditions. Don’t bother.
Tuesday afternoon, 1st September, we finally get a pulse. A small 3 ft swell from the SSE with a short 7-second period, water temps sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 71°, and glassy conditions thanks to a light WSW breeze. The combined energy is moderate at 125, but the waves are “surfable but very ordinary.” It’s a small, clean option for a grovel on a longboard if you’re desperate.
Wednesday, 2nd September, the swell bumps up to 5 ft in the morning from the S, but the wind swings SSW at 12 mph, blowing cross-onshore. It’s choppy and messy. That afternoon the swell hits 6 ft from the S, period 10 seconds, and energy jumps to 608 (strong), but the wind is onshore at 12 mph. Not for paddling—this setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Same goes for the bigger 6 ft S swell on Monday, 7th September, with onshore winds and mega energy (910). That one’s only for experts anyway, but the wind ruins it.
Thursday, 3rd September, offers a brief window: 4 ft from the SSE, 9-second period, glassy in the morning with an ENE breeze at 3 mph. Energy is moderate at 255, and it’s “surfable but very ordinary.” Clean but small. Friday, 4th September, is similar—3 ft from the SSE, glassy morning, but weak energy (181).
The second week gets a bit more consistent, but nothing to write home about. Wednesday, 9th September morning has 4 ft from the ESE, 8-second period, clean with a light offshore from the E at 6 mph. Energy is moderate at 281, and it’s “surfable but very ordinary.” Thursday, 10th September morning, 3 ft from the ESE, glassy with light SW winds—clean but tiny.
The standout in this whole 16-day window? I’d point to Thursday, 3rd September morning. It’s not big, but 4 ft from the SSE, glassy conditions, and low crowds at Embare (it’s “sometimes” crowded, but with this forecast, likely quiet). That’s your best bet for a clean, surfable session. Everything else is either too small, too windy, or too messy.
Sorry folks, it’s a quiet spell. Forecasts can change, but right now, keep your expectations low and your longboard handy.
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.
