The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Laranjeiras. The next couple weeks have a decent start, then a long flat patch, and a possible last hurrah around the second Monday. No massive days.
Best session by far is Thursday morning, September 3rd. Clean head-high waves at about 6 ft from the SSE, period of 11 seconds. Offshore wind from the ENE at 6 mph – glassy. Combined energy is 737, which is moderate. The swell direction matches the optimum from the south. This is the pick of the bunch. The 6 ft size is good for experienced surfers but not for beginners. Crowds are possible.
Wednesday morning, September 2nd is a solid starter. Glassy, 5 ft from the SSW, period 8 seconds, combined energy 289. Water temp is 73°, a bit warmer than usual.
After Friday afternoon, the swell fades. The weekend (Sept 5-6) is small or messy – under 3 ft with rain on Sunday.
From September 8th through September 14th, mornings offer some clean but weak 3-4 ft waves, best on the 8th and 9th with offshore wind. Nothing special.
Then Monday afternoon, September 14th shows a new long-period groundswell – 3 ft from the S at 14 seconds, clean cross-off wind. Combined energy 301. The long period means fewer, better-shaped waves. Good if you have a point break nearby, but at a beach break it can be a bit straight.
After that, by September 15-17, it’s tiny – under 2 ft – and not worth the paddle.
Go for Thursday morning, September 3rd. That’s your window.

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