Table - best surf conditions forecast for Matinhos over the next 16 days.


Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ at Matinhos over the next couple of weeks.

Overall, this is a patchy outlook. We’ve got a slow start with not much to write home about, but there’s a little window of clean, fun surf lining up around the second weekend that’s worth keeping an eye on. The first week is pretty flat and sloppy, so don’t expect any hero sessions until we get past Wednesday the 10th.

Matinhos is a point break, and it’s very consistent with an optimum swell from the south. For the first few days, it’s a bit of a dud. Tuesday the 7th sees a 4ft SSE swell but with a cross-on south wind, and the water temp is sitting at 67° – about normal for this time of year. The energy is weak (353), and the conditions are poor. Not worth paddling out.

Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th are glassy in the mornings on a tiny 2ft swell from the southeast, with weak energy (128 and 118). You *could* get wet, but it’s very ordinary.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Saturday the 11th morning is a standout. We’ve got a nice, clean 3ft ESE groundswell with a solid 13-second period, meaning proper lines and easy paddling between sets. The combined energy is moderate (374), and with light offshore winds from the northwest, it should be smooth and peeling down that point. This is the best on offer – a proper little session. Sunday the 12th morning is similar, with a 3ft SE groundswell and light offshore winds (342 energy), so that’s another solid option before the wind swings onshore in the afternoon.

After that, things get rough again from Monday the 13th onward. The swell drops back to under 3ft, and cross-on winds make a mess of things for the rest of the week. There are a few glassy mornings (like Tuesday the 14th and Friday the 17th) but the wave heights are tiny – 2ft to 3ft – and the energy is weak to moderate (95 and 90). Not worth the wetsuit, to be honest. The second week looks even smaller, with nothing breaking the 3ft mark and most days showing poor or very ordinary conditions.

So, to sum it up: forget the first week. If you’re keen, aim for Saturday the 11th morning at Matinhos. That’s your best shot for clean, shoulder-high lines with some push. Sunday morning is a close second. After that, it’s a flat spell that stretches right through to the 22nd with nothing exciting.

Keep the board waxed and the coffee hot – it’ll turn around eventually.

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.
