Alright, surf check for Matinhos.
The first week is pretty flat, not much worth paddling out for until later in the window. The real action picks up on Saturday, July 11th.
Saturday morning: glassy conditions with ESE swell at about 3 ft, period nice and long at 13 seconds. That’ll give you proper walls with plenty of push. Combined energy at 346 (moderate). A solid pick.
Sunday the 12th delivers again—glassy, 3 ft, 12 second ESE swell. Energy at 282. Clean and lined up.
Now, Monday the 13th, the swell fires up to around 6 ft from the SSE, 10 second period. Energy jumps to 819 in the morning, then 1203 in the afternoon. That’s strong. But the wind is trash—cross-onshore then onshore. So it’ll be powerful but messy. Experienced crew only.
Tuesday the 14th morning comes glassy again with 4 ft SE swell, energy at 204. That’s a good window.
The biggest standout later on is Monday the 20th: offshore NNW wind in the morning, 5 ft SE swell at 8 seconds. Energy at 338 and clean. Swell direction works with the optimum. Crowds are likely but the quality should make it worth your time.
Bottom line: July 11th morning, 12th morning, 14th morning, and 20th morning are the sessions to lock in. The best mix of clean and punchy falls on the 11th, 12th, and the 20th if you want more size.

Information about the Matinhos Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Matinhos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Matinhos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Matinhos 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 (Matinhos) 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 Matinhos 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.
Matinhos is 15 km (9 miles) from Paranagua. If you plan a holiday in Paraná, look for hotels and other accommodation in Paranagua. Paranagua has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
