Table - best surf conditions forecast for Matinhos over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here, and I'm looking at a pretty solid run ahead for us at Matinhos. It's a classic point break, very consistent, and it's pulling in swell from the south, which is exactly what we want to see. Water temp is about average for this time of year, no surprises there.
We've got some small, clean waves to kick things off on Wednesday the 8th, but they're nothing to write home about. The real action starts to build from Saturday the 11th. That afternoon we see the combined swell energy jump to 334 (moderate) with a solid 3ft wave from the ESE, and get this – the wind is dead calm, glassy as a mirror. Expect the surf to be good. That sets up a beauty of a Sunday morning on the 12th: still 3ft from the ESE, period up to 13 seconds of long-period groundswell, and a light offshore breeze from the NNW. That's clean, lined-up surf on a point break, and it's a standout for the whole period.
The next week keeps the promise alive. Tuesday the 14th morning is glassy again, with 4ft from the SSE and a combined energy of 356 (moderate). Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th both have glassy mornings with 4ft swell from the SE and periods of 12 seconds, giving you consistent chest-high sets. For the absolute best of the best, I'm calling Wednesday the 15th morning – that 362 (moderate) combined energy, offshore glass, and that classic SE groundswell is a recipe for clean, rippable walls. Crowds are often here, so get in early.
The following week tapers off a bit. Sunday the 19th morning has another glassy session with 3ft and a 12-second SE swell, and the energy is still respectable at 237 (moderate). Thursday the 22nd afternoon is a sleeper hit – 3ft from the ESE with a cross-offshore breeze, giving you clean waves. After that, the run fades into the 23rd with a strong onshore wind, closing the book on this 16-day forecast.
Rusty.

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.
