Table - best surf conditions forecast for Matinhos over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
First off, we’re looking at a pretty drawn-out period with small, clean conditions early on, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing. The water temp is sitting at 66°F, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The standout morning is Saturday, July 11th, at Matinhos, a point break. We’ve got a clean 2ft swell coming from the SE with a period of 13 seconds – that’s a nice, long-period groundswell bringing some decent energy (306). The wind is glassy out of the west, which will make for some real clean, lined-up waves. This is a very consistent spot, so the chances of scoring are good. That morning session is the pick of the first week.
The other one to pencil in is Tuesday morning, July 14th. Another glassy morning, this time with a little more size at 4ft from the SSE, with a period of 10 seconds. The energy is still solid (243), and with the wind flat out of the west, it’ll be clean. This is a notch up in size, so it’s more for the intermediate crew.
After that, things get a bit patchy. The mornings of Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th both have small, clean waves (3ft to 3ft), but the energy drops off, and the quality is just ordinary. You’ll get a wave, but it won’t be the session of the summer.
The second week is quiet. Mornings from Friday the 17th through to the end of the forecast see small waves (2ft to 4ft) with very low energy (57 to 186). The winds are mostly light or glassy, so it’ll be a good time for a beginner lesson or a longboard, but don’t expect any power. The period drops to 8 seconds or less, which is just weak, wind-affected junk.
Honestly, the best bet is to hit the Saturday morning, July 11th, for the cleanest, most lined-up groundswell. After that, keep an eye on Tuesday morning, July 14th, for a bit more size, but it’s a short window.
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.
