The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. I’ve had a good look at the charts for Ponta do Mangue over the next couple of weeks, and I gotta level with you—this is a rough run. We’re staring down a solid 14-day stretch where the surf just ain’t worth paddling out for. The wind is pretty much stuck onshore or cross-shore the whole time, and the water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird going on there.
We kick off on Wednesday, September 2nd, and it’s a no-go. Morning sees a 4ft swell from the ESE with a period of 9 seconds, but a cross-shore wind from the NE at 12 mph is chopping it up. By the afternoon, it gets worse—cross-onshore at 16 mph. The wave energy is weak at 188, and the conditions are just messy.
That same story repeats day after day. Thursday the 3rd, Friday the 4th, Saturday the 5th—still 3ft to 4ft ESE swells, still onshore or cross-shore winds, and energy levels that barely tickle the dial. It’s a long wait.
By Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th, the swell bumps up a bit, with combined energy hitting 333 on Sunday morning, but the wind is still cross-shore and the period drops to 8 seconds, so it’s short-period, weak junk. The poor surf conditions just keep coming.
The middle of the month sees a little spike around Thursday, September 10th. The swell jumps to 6ft from the SSE in the afternoon, and the energy hits 759—moderate now—but it’s still cross-onshore at 12-16 mph and choppy. Not the kind of day you rush out for.
We finally get a faint glimmer on Wednesday, September 16th. The morning shows a 7ft swell from the east, with a period of 9 seconds and a big energy reading of 1187—that’s strong energy. The wind is only a gentle breeze from the east at 9 mph, but it’s cross-onshore and the conditions are described as marginal. This is only for experts, because that 7ft is pushing the limits for most. Still, it’s the only half-decent moment in the whole outlook. It’s a long way out though, so treat it as a promising but uncertain prospect.
The rest of the run after that fades back into poor conditions. Honestly, for paddle surfing, this is about as quiet as it gets. If you’re into kitesurfing, those cross-onshore winds and moderate energy might offer something, but for a surfer? Best to find a different hobby for a fortnight.
Rusty.
