The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The next two weeks at Hawaiizinho are looking pretty grim, if I’m being honest. We’ve got a whole lot of nothing on the horizon for a solid week and a half. The surf just isn’t showing up, and the wind is mostly going to be cross-shore, chopping up whatever small bumps we do see. It’s a real bummer for this stretch of coast.
The first real chance of anything rideable isn't until Sunday, August 24th. That’s a long dry spell. We’re looking at a gap of about 12 days with no proper surf. The swell is just weak, short-period windswell, all coming from the east, which isn’t even ideal for this spot. The energy is low and messy. To give you an idea, the combined swell energy is weak, mostly in the 100 to 200 range (like 149 on the 15th and 171 on the 16th). It’s just not doing anything for us.
The only standout on the entire board is the morning of Tuesday, August 25th. That’s the one to circle. The swell ticks up slightly to 5ft from the east with a period of 6 seconds. It’s still short-period, but the wind goes light and cross-offshore, which is a major positive. For a spot that’s been getting hammered by onshore breeze, a clean, glassy morning like that will make a world of difference. It won’t be epic, but for consistency and clean conditions, this is the best we're going to get in the whole 16-day window. The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about normal for this time of year, so just a rashie will do.
There is a slight pulse again on the morning of Wednesday, August 26th, with 5ft from the ENE and a 7-second period, but the wind freshens and goes more cross-shore, so it’ll be lumpy again. That one is worth a look only if you’re desperate for a paddle.
Remember, these long-range calls are promising but less certain. Near-term, it’s just a lot of waiting. There’s nothing here for beginners, the swell is small, but the conditions are just poor. If you’re into kitesurfing, the constant cross-shore winds and choppy waves might be more your thing, but for us surfers, it’s a blank run. It’s the kind of stretch that’s pretty normal for this area when the trade winds just don’t let up. Keep your hopes up, though; things can change.
Rusty, out.

Information about the Hawaiizinho Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hawaiizinho provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hawaiizinho can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hawaiizinho 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 (Hawaiizinho) 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 Hawaiizinho 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.
Hawaiizinho is 3 km (2 miles) from Paracuru. If you plan a holiday in Ceará, look for hotels and other accommodation in Paracuru. Paracuru has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
