The Lowdown

Alright, let’s talk in feet and miles per hour now.

We start off on Monday 7th September at Molhes de Mampituba. Morning glass – dead calm, clean swell at about 4-5ft from the SSE, period around 10 seconds. That’s a fun, solid wave with moderate energy (339). The wind is offshore from the NNW and light as can be. The river mouth should be clean and working. Crowds are often a thing there, so early is your friend. This is the best of the first week. Water temp feels about normal for the season, nothing crazy.

Tuesday 8th September morning stays tidy with a smaller 3ft SSE swell, cross-off wind, energy at 262. It’s surfable, but you won’t be screaming about it. Afternoon goes soft with a light cross-on.

Wednesday 9th and Thursday 10th September are small and inconsistent. Thursday morning does go glassy again with a waist-high 2-3ft SSE swell, but the period jumps to 15 seconds – that’s a real groundswell. At a river mouth, those long lines can be tricky, but the energy is there (426). Worth a look.

Friday 11th drops way off, and the weekend gets blown out. Saturday 12th is marginal, Sunday 13th pushes up to 7-8ft SSE but with messy cross-onshore wind and strong energy (1104). Only for the experts, and even then, it’s rough.

Now the good stuff.

Monday 14th September: morning has a solid 7ft SE swell, clean cross-off, energy at 1548. But Monday afternoon is the one – 8ft ESE swell, period 9 seconds, near glassy north wind. That’s a powerful, big-wave session with energy at 1825. This is for experienced surfers only. Absolute standout.

Tuesday 15th morning is still solid – 6ft ESE, clean, energy 574 – really good for intermediates. Afternoon goes choppy.

After a lull, Thursday 17th morning brings back 5ft S swell, clean, energy 504 – solid. But the big one is Friday 18th September morning: 6ft SSE swell with a very long 14-second period, clean cross-off wind, and energy blasting at 1520. That’s a serious groundswell hitting the jetty – should be excellent for the strong paddlers.

Saturday 19th is smaller and clean but nothing special. Sunday 20th onward is shot – onshore wind, small junk. Not worth wetting a leash.

Best bets: Monday 14th September afternoon (8ft, clean, huge energy) and Friday 18th September morning (6ft, long period, excellent). Mark your calendar.
