The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the Focene stretch.
Mate, I'm gonna be straight with you – this forecast is a tough one. We're looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple to get excited about. The water is sitting at a very warm 84°F, which is over 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so it feels more like a bath than the ocean. But that’s about the only notable thing.
The first real chance of anything rideable arrives on the morning of Sunday, 23 August. We've got a little 3ft swell from the SSW, with a short period of 6 seconds, and the wind is blowing offshore from the ESE at 6 mph. The combined energy is a feeble 67, so it's weak. The call is "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" – it's not going to be pretty, but it's the only game in town. Monday morning, 24 August, might be a touch better. We see a similar 4ft swell from the S, period still a short 6 seconds, but with that light offshore wind from the SE, it'll be clean. The combined energy here is a moderate 111. It's still not great, but for a beginner looking for a tiny, clean wave, this is the standout of the entire 16 days.
After that, we get a big gap. Tuesday morning, 25 August, has a bit more size at 4ft from the W, but the wind is screaming from the SSE at 25 mph – that's a strong breeze, and it’s going to be a mess. The setup is a beach, so with that much wind and poor quality, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Then from Wednesday, 26 August, onwards, we drop back into tiny, weak, or non-existent surf for days.
The next tiny flicker comes on the morning of Friday, 28 August, with a 3ft WSW swell at 6 seconds and clean cross-off winds from the SSE. The energy is 77, still weak. Then it all goes quiet again until the very end of the period. The morning of Tuesday, 1 September, might offer a 1ft wave with clean winds, but it's nothing to write home about.
Honestly, there's no proper swell to speak of. The best you can hope for is a tiny, clean wave on Sunday morning or Monday morning. If you're a beginner, those are your windows. For anyone else, it's a long wait for something that might not come.
Rusty, signing off.

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