Alright, listen up. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at the charts for our little corner of the coast here. We’ve got a bit of a slow burn coming, but there’s some real magic hiding in the middle of this forecast if you’ve got the patience for it.
Right now, and for the next few days, it’s pretty average to be honest. The swell is running small, around 2ft to 4ft, but the real problem is the wind isn’t playing ball. We’ve got a lot of onshore and cross-onshore breezes mixing things up, making it messy. The water temp is sitting at a fairly normal 68°F, so nothing weird there for this time of year. You’ll want to leave the board on the car for the first few days.
But then we hit Wednesday morning, the 15th of July. That’s the one to circle on your calendar. The sun’s out, the wind goes glassy from the NNE, and we’ve got a clean 4ft SE swell rolling in with a nice 11-second period. The energy is moderate but building (447 combined energy). This is your window. Embare (your local break) will be clean, lined up, and with the offshore wind, it’s going to be silky. Just know that this spot is sheltered from the S, and with the swell coming from the SE, it’s slotting in nicely. The crowds are "sometimes" here, so you might have a few buddies out, but it won’t be a circus.
Thursday the 16th is a great follow-up. Another glassy morning with a clean 4ft SE swell, a touch more energy at 531, and 12-second period. This is the real standout of the whole run. If you can only surf one day, make it Thursday the 16th morning. The consistency is solid, and the wind is perfect.
Friday the 17th morning still holds up with offshore breezes and a clean 4ft SE swell, but the energy dips a little to 434. It’s still good, but not as prime as Thursday.
After that, the swell fades fast. By Saturday the 18th, we’re dropping to 3ft and the period falls off a cliff to 10 seconds. From the 19th onwards, it’s a long, dry spell. We’re talking a solid week of flat to tiny, weak swell with energy readings dropping below 100. There’s nothing worth paddling out for from the 19th through to the 26th. It’s a proper blank run.
So, the call: don’t bother paddling out until Wednesday morning the 15th. If you only get one session, make it Thursday the 16th. That’s the best we’ve got on the cards. A week of quiet follows, so make the most of that mid-week window.
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.
