The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up at Molhes de Mampituba over the next couple of weeks. It’s a river/jetty setup, exposed to the SE swell, and it’s a fairly consistent spot that handles a bit of size. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on.
The first real standout is Thursday morning, the 16th of July. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell rolling in from the NE with a short 7-second period, and the wind is a light cross-off from the north. The combined energy is moderate (529). It’s not a massive day, but it’s gonna be clean and fun, perfect for intermediate surfers. Just a heads up, the break can get crowded often, so get out there early.
Then, Saturday the 18th of July is where it gets serious. The morning is clean with a 7ft ENE swell and a 9-second period, and the combined energy is strong (1072). The wind is a light cross-off from the NNE. The afternoon is the real gem though—still 7ft, but the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. That’s the best on offer in this window. The swell is over 8ft, so this is for experts only. The river/jetty setup should handle the size well, but be aware of the crowds.
Sunday the 19th of July is worth a mention too. The afternoon goes glassy with a light north wind and a 5ft ENE swell (9-second period, moderate energy at 573). It’s a very clean, easy session for the intermediate crowd.
There’s a bit of a gap after that. Monday the 20th through to Wednesday the 22nd is mostly ordinary with small, messy waves or poor wind. Thursday the 23rd morning has a small 5ft, short-period ENE swell (6 seconds) with clean conditions, but it’s pretty average. The next real highlight is Tuesday the 28th of July morning—a clean 7ft ENE swell, short-period (7 seconds), with strong energy (811). It’s a promising looking session for the experienced crew, but it’s a long way out so keep an eye on it.
For the first week, the best call is the Saturday afternoon session. Clean, powerful, and solid. The second week’s Tuesday morning is the one to watch, but it’s less certain.
Rusty out.
