The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this stretch ahead for Ponta do Mangue is a tough one. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for decent surf. There’s just no good news to report. The wind’s got the better of it, the swell’s messy and weak, and every single reading we got is flagged as poor surf conditions. You're looking at a solid two-plus weeks of onshore and cross-onshore breezes, mainly from the SE and ESE, keeping the surface chopped up and ugly.
We start Friday the 24th with a tiny 2 ft SE swell at 8 seconds and onshore wind, energy reading a weak (78). That sets the tone. Saturday and Sunday aren't any better – same small, choppy junk. The swell does try to bump up a bit, but it’s still short-period and coming from a bad angle with wind right on it.
The water is sitting at 79°F, which is pretty average for this time of year, no drama there. But the drama is the lack of any surfable conditions.
Even when we get a bit more energy kicking in around the start of August with some readings over 200 and 400, the swell direction (ESE) and steady wind kill it. On the 3rd of August, there's a 5 ft ESE swell with energy reading (413), but it’s pulsing right into a 13 mph cross-onshore breeze. Short, straight, messy waves – looks more like a kite session than a surf. That pattern just keeps repeating all the way through to the 8th of August.
Honestly, this is one of those blank runs where you park the board and find something else to do. Forecasts can always flip, but right now, there's nothing on the table worth paddling out for.
Rusty.
