Table - best surf conditions forecast for Molhes de Mampituba over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ at Molhes de Mampituba over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first real suggestion of surf comes in on Saturday the 11th, but it’s pretty average. The water is a nippy 59°F and a full 5°F colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be wanting a thick wetsuit. The real standouts are tucked away further in the window.
The first morning that’s worth getting excited about is Tuesday the 14th. The swell is a solid 6ft out of the SE, with a moderate energy reading (556). The wind is light, cross-off from the north-northeast, keeping things clean. This is a good, solid intermediate session.
Things really start to look promising on the 19th of July, a Sunday. The swell bumps up to a clean 7ft from the ENE, packing a lot of energy (818). The wind is light cross-off from the north-northeast again, so the river mouth should be reeling off some nice lines. This is a proper standout for the more experienced crew.
Then, the one to circle on the calendar is Friday the 24th of July. We’re looking at a 8ft swell from the ENE, with combined energy reading 1008. That’s a strong pulse. The morning is clean with a light cross-off wind from the north-northwest. This is for the experts only, but it’s the best on offer in the whole 16-day window.
After that, the 25th and 26th see a drop in quality with strong onshore winds, so don’t expect much.
A quick note on the 17th of July: the Friday afternoon session sees a glassy 4ft wave from the ENE. It’s small, but if you’re jonesin’ for a wave, it’ll be the cleanest small-wave option of the run.
So, bottom line: the 14th is a solid warm-up, but the 19th and especially the 24th are the days to plan for. Crowds are often an issue here, so get there early.
Rusty.
