The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Honestly, looking at the whole 16-day window, it's a tough run of surf for Ponta do Mangue. The finder shows not a single "poor surf conditions" shifted, and for pretty much the whole period the wind is either cross-on or onshore, which is never great. The water temp is sitting around 80°, which is about average for this time of year.
We start straight away on Monday the 14th. Morning brings a tiny 2ft swell from the SE with a short period of 8 seconds and a cross-on breeze at 9 mph. The energy is weak at 85, and it's choppy. Not worth paddling out. Afternoon is similar, just a bit more wind. This pattern just drags on. Tuesday and Wednesday are the same story – small, weak cross-on swell in the 3ft to 4ft range, periods around 7-9 seconds, so the waves are just junky. The energy builds a little into the triple digits, but it's all onshore chop.
Thursday the 17th jumps to an onshore wind and a swell hits 3ft from the SE with a better period of 10 seconds. The energy jumps to 364, which is moderate, but with heavy onshore wind at 12 mph, you're looking at bumpy, ugly conditions. This lasts into the weekend. Friday the 18th actually has the biggest swell of the entire run at 5ft from the SE, but the period is a pitiful 6 seconds and the wind is onshore at 16 mph. That's pure windswell slop. The energy is moderate (267-306), but the quality is zero. It would be a frustrating, messy paddle.
The entire following week, from Monday the 21st right through to the end on Tuesday the 29th of September, it's the same: cross-on or onshore winds from the E and ESE, small swell under 4ft, with short periods mostly under 8 seconds. The energy fluctuates but never produces clean conditions. There is one flicker of hope on Thursday the 24th morning with a period of 11 seconds for a 3ft ESE swell, but that cross-on wind ruins it. Similarly, on Friday the 25th afternoon, a 2ft SE swell with a 10-second period is just too small and windy. The best you can say is that the current is probably manageable, but the surf just isn't there. It's a blank run, and for this area, that's just how it goes sometimes. A few days with more energy, like Saturday the 19th (energy 379) and Tuesday the 22nd (energy 288), but with the onshore winds, it looks more like a kiteboarding session than a surfing one.
