Itaúna Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s break down what’s happening at Itaúna over the next couple of weeks.

The first few days are the ones to circle on your calendar. The best of the bunch is the morning of Tuesday July 7th – clean, offshore wind, and a solid 5ft SSE swell with a 10-second period. Water temp is 74°, which is about normal for this time of year, so nothing wild. The break is pumping moderate energy (734) and that light NNE breeze will have it glassy. This is the top pick for the whole window – a proper point break session for the advanced guys.

After that, it goes downhill. Tuesday afternoon swings cross-on with a westerly and the surf drops. Wednesday and Thursday are a total loss with cross-onshore winds and chop. The swell is there, but the wind kills it.

Friday July 10th morning is another clean window – 3ft SE swell with a long 14-second period and 521 energy. That’s a proper groundswell, and with a cross-offshore breeze, it’ll be tidy. This is your second best.

Saturday July 11th morning also looks good – 4ft SE swell, 13-second period, light offshore cross-off wind, and 646 energy. Clean again. But the afternoon turns onshore, so get out early.

Sunday July 12th morning is small but clean with a 3ft SE swell and 12-second period, light offshore. Worth a paddle if you’re keen.

There’s a gap of poor conditions until the afternoon of Monday July 13th – 5ft S swell, 11-second period, 760 energy, and a clean offshore wind. That’s another quality session with light rain, but it’s worth it.

The next few days are mostly small and wind-affected, with a few clean windows on the 15th, 16th, and 17th of July mornings, but only 2ft to 3ft, so not much push. The 19th of July has a weird 20-second swell but it’s only 1ft – long period but tiny. The 20th and 21st of July mornings see a bit more size at 4ft, clean cross-off winds, and decent energy (356 and 342), so those are your best bets in the second week, but they’re not standouts.

From the 22nd onward, it’s small and ordinary. The first few days are where the real action is, so if you’re keen, aim for the 7th, 10th, and 11th of July mornings.
