The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on offer for our local spot.

We're looking at a stretch that starts quiet, builds to some solid action, then fades out. For the first few days, it's pretty grim. Sunday the 2nd and most of Monday the 3rd are a write-off with poor surf and onshore junk. By Monday afternoon the swell drops right out. The real story begins to unfold on Tuesday the 4th.

Tuesday the 4th starts a bit average, but the afternoon is where it's at. We've got a 0.9m (3ft) swell from the SSE with an 11-second period, and the wind goes glassy. That's the kind of clean you dream about. The combined energy is moderate (276). It'll be small, but for a quiet session, that’s your best early call.

Wednesday the 5th morning is clean again with a light offshore, but the swell is dropping a touch. Still surfable. Things get a little shaky after that with onshore winds and small swell right through until the end of the week.

Now, for the standouts. Keep your eye on Sunday the 9th. We’ve got a big pulse of SSW swell building through the day. Morning sees 2.3m (8ft) at 13 seconds from the S, but the wind is a fresh cross-shore, making it lumpy and tough. The combined energy is a massive 2766 – that’s proper grunt. This is expert territory; too much for most. The afternoon drops to 1.8m (6ft) but the wind swings to a moderate cross-shore. Still marginal.

The true gold is the start of the following week. Monday the 10th morning delivers a clean 1.4m (5ft) swell from the SSE at 14 seconds, with a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is still strong (833). This is the pick for intermediate surfers who want quality. The water temp is 18° (64°F), which is a touch above average for this time of year – you might not need the thickest suit.

Tuesday the 11th morning is the big one for experienced crew. Clean, 2.0m (7ft) from the S at 13 seconds, with a light offshore. Combined energy is 1343. That’s powerful, clean, and going to be a handful. Not for the faint-hearted. Wednesday the 12th morning is another glassy morning with a 1.6m (5ft) SSE swell at 12 seconds, energy at 710. Perfect for those who can handle a bit of size.

From there, the swell slowly fades through the end of the week and into the weekend. There are some clean mornings, but the size drops back to that 1m (3ft) range. Monday the 17th sees small, weak energy (148) and a short period, so it’s back to ordinary surf.

Molhes de Mampituba (river/jetties) is fairly consistent and can get crowded often, but when the wind and swell line up like it does on Tuesday the 4th afternoon, Monday the 10th morning, and Wednesday the 12th morning, it’s worth the paddle.

Stay stoked.
Rusty.
