The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on the cards for our local stretch.

Overall, the pattern for the next 16 days is a long, drawn-out run of pretty ordinary conditions. There’s no real punch to the swell, and the wind is going to be a constant problem. We’ve got a solid 10-day gap from the start where there’s nothing worth paddling out for, and even after that, it’s mostly marginal. The water temp is sitting at 75° at the start, which is basically average for the time of year, so no surprises there.

The only real standout, and I mean the *only* one that gets a mention, is the very end of the run. On the morning of Tuesday, July 28th, we’ll see a glimmer of hope. The swell is only 2ft, but it’s coming from the SSE with a very long 16-second period. That’s proper groundswell energy, and for a spot like Marataizes, that long period stuff can wrap in a little better. The wind is light and cross-off from the NNE, which will keep it clean. The combined energy is a modest 162, so it’s not powerful, but it’s structured. For a protected spot, this could offer a few clean, lined-up waves. It’s a promising little window, but being so far out, don’t lock it in just yet.

Other than that, the rest of the period is a write-off. The afternoons get hammered by a fresh onshore breeze that turns everything into a lumpy mess, and the mornings might be clean but with tiny, weak swells that lack any push. A couple of afternoons, like July 20th and July 28th, see a bit more energy (115 and 617 respectively), but the wind is so bad it’s not worth the paddle. For a break that’s inconsistent by nature, this kind of blank run isn’t that unusual, but it doesn’t make it any less frustrating.

Marataizes is a beginner-friendly zone, but when the swell bumps up to 4ft like on the afternoon of July 16th (combined energy 554), the onshore wind makes it a messy, lumpy mess. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-friendly one.

Rusty.

Information about the Marataizes Surf forecast

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

Marataizes is 2 km (1 miles) from Itapemirim. If you plan a holiday in Espírito Santo, look for hotels and other accommodation in Itapemirim. Itapemirim has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
