The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, talkin’ surf for Molhes de Mampituba. This forecast is a slow starter, then it turns into a proper show.
The first week is mostly small, weak, and messy. From the 30th of July through early August, the waves are tiny and the winds are a problem. The water temp is around 65°F, pretty normal for this time of year.
The first decent chance comes on Tuesday the 4th of August. The morning has a clean, cross-off breeze with a knee-high swell from the SSE at 0.8ft, with an 11-second period. The combined energy is 235, and the clean conditions make it actually worth a look.
The real action starts in the second week. The afternoon of Sunday the 10th of August is the first sign of life – glassy conditions, a 0.9ft SSE swell with a long 14-second period, and combined energy of 624. The standout stretch is from Tuesday the 11th of August. That morning you get a solid 2ft SSE swell, clean cross-off wind, and energy of 985. The afternoon is a bit smaller at 2ft but still clean, with energy of 1031. This is excellent, powerful surf for experienced surfers, and the SSE swell matches the optimum SE direction well.
Wednesday the 12th of August is the peak. The morning is glassy with a 2ft S swell, a long 11-second period, and energy of 1567. The afternoon is unreal – dead calm, glassy, a 2ft SSE swell with a very long 15-second period, and energy of 1781. That long-period groundswell will be a dream on this river/jetty break, offering long, clean lines.
Thursday the 13th of August keeps the quality high. The morning has a 3ft ESE swell, which is for the experts only, but with clean wind and a massive 2173 energy. The afternoon is a bit smaller at 2ft, but glassy again.
The best days to plan for are the 11th, 12th, and 13th of August. The 12th, with that perfect glass and long-period swell, is the absolute standout. It’s a long-range forecast, so keep an eye on it, but it’s lookin’ promising. The break can get crowded, as it’s “often” busy, so get there early.
This is Rusty, signing off.
