Right. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks here. The first surf worth paddling out for hits us on Wednesday morning, July 8. Early doors, Molhes de Mampituba (river/jetties) has a clean 3 ft south swell with an 11-second period. The combined wave energy is moderate at 230 and with a light NNW breeze going offshore, the surface will be glassy. It’s not a big day, but it’s a gentle, welcoming start. Water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild.

That first morning gets a score of 2 internally, so it’s a nice little opener, but the real standout comes on Saturday, July 11. Saturday morning is where it’s at. We’ve got a 4 ft ESE groundswell rolling in with a solid 13-second period. The combined energy jumps to a very healthy 621. The wind is dead calm – glassy conditions – so expect clean, well-shaped lines peeling off the jetties. This swell direction matches right up with the optimum SE direction for the break. This is the best session of the whole run. A little bigger than the early week stuff, but still manageable for intermediates. Crowds are likely here, so get in early.

Sunday morning, July 12, also looks clean with a glassy surface and a 3 ft ESE swell, carrying a long 13-second period. The combined energy is still strong at 576. It won’t have the punch of Saturday, but the conditions are perfect for a long, cruisy session.

Fast forward to Monday, July 13. The swell jumps up to 7 ft from the SSW, but the period drops to a short, bumpy 8 seconds. Combined energy is a burly 1014, but with a strong cross-shore wind of 15 mph, it’s going to be a messy, choppy mess. This is more of a challenge for experts only, and honestly, it looks better suited to kite surfing than paddle surfing.

Tuesday morning, July 14, cleans right up again. A glassy morning with a 6 ft SSW swell at 9 seconds. Combined energy is still high at 911. It’s powerful, but the short period means it’ll be a bit fat and walled-up on the beach. Not the best shape.

Wednesday, July 15, sees another glassy morning, this time with a 5 ft SE groundswell, 12-second period, and combined energy of 715. That’s a really solid, well-energised swell. Again, clean conditions, but the afternoon turns onshore, so make the most of the morning.

By the time we get to the second week, things get a bit more mixed. Thursday, July 16, is average at best with cross-shore winds. But Friday, July 17, both morning and afternoon are glassy with 4 ft to 3 ft SE swell. A nice little window of clean surf, but nothing to get too excited about.

Saturday, July 18, the morning holds clean with a cross-off breeze and 3 ft swell, but the afternoon gets shredded by a 12 mph cross-shore. Sunday, July 19, has some size – 5 ft to 5 ft – but the period drops to a short 8 seconds and the wind is messy. It’s a bit of a scrappy day.

Monday, July 20, offers a clean morning with a 2 ft SE groundswell, 12-second period. Small but clean. Tuesday and Wednesday get more ordinary, with short-period windswell and onshore influences. Thursday, July 23, has a 6 ft ENE swell with a fresh 19 mph cross-off wind, which will at least keep the faces clean, but the period is only 8 seconds and the energy is moderate.

Overall, the standout is Saturday, July 11, with Sunday, July 12, and Wednesday, July 15, mornings as the next best bets. There’s a bit of a lull between Sunday and Wednesday, but once that high-energy groundswell arrives, it’s well worth the wait.

Rusty.
