The Lowdown
Alright, listen up. Rusty here, and I gotta be honest – this forecast for Faria is a total bummer. For the next two weeks, we’re looking at a proper flat spell. No real standouts, no days where the stars align for a proper session. The first tiny glimmer of hope doesn't roll in until Friday the 4th of September, and even that’s a borderline call. The first week is packed with poor conditions and days where you'd be wasting your time.
That first chance on Friday the 4th of September morning is a small one. The swell is only 2ft from the SSW with a pretty long 17-second period, giving a moderate energy of 289. The wind is a light cross-on from the S at 6 mph, which keeps it from being totally messy, but it's still a marginal, questionable tide situation. Not a great one.
The pattern stays weak through the weekend. Saturday the 5th of September morning has a similar 2ft SSW swell at 16 seconds and a light onshore wind, but the conditions are still poor. The energy climbs a bit to 350 (moderate), but it just doesn't come together.
The water temp was a balmy 71° on the 2nd of September, which is a freakish 7° warmer than usual—very unusual. So you’ll be warm, but you’ll need all the patience you've got.
From Sunday the 6th all the way through the end of the second week, it's a long, drawn-out stretch of weak surf with onshore or cross-onshore breezes. The swell sticks around 1ft to 3ft, mostly from the SW and SSW, with varying periods. The energy drops into double digits—as low as 62 on the 13th of September, which is weak. The wind is generally light to moderate, but always from the wrong direction. The waves will be choppy, lumpy, or just too damn small to be fun. Honestly, the whole setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on most afternoons.
Bottom line: the 16-day window is a blank run. There are zero standout days. You’d need a serious change in the weather pattern to get anything rideable. Forecasts can change, but for now, save your energy and wait for the next swell.
Rusty.

Information about the Faria Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Faria provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Faria can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Faria 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 (Faria) 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 Faria 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.
