Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ponta do Mangue over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Ponta do Mangue is offering up over the next couple of weeks. I've got to be straight with you – this stretch is going to be a tough one. It's not looking great, with a long run of poor surf conditions that goes from the 12th of July all the way through to the 27th. There are no good windows in the 16-day outlook, so don't get your hopes up.
We start off on Sunday the 12th with a small, weak SSE swell pumping in at around 2.6ft at 12 seconds. It's already messy, with a cross-onshore wind from the east at 9 mph making things choppy. The water's sitting at a warm 79.7°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The combined swell energy is weak (171), and the word from the charts is "poor surf conditions." This set-up just isn't working for us.
That same pattern gets stuck on repeat. Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th see us with tiny swells, 1.6ft to 2.6ft, with short periods or onshore winds keeping everything blown-out and ugly. Into Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th, we get a bump in size, with the swell hitting 5.2ft to 6.2ft, but it's coming with a howling onshore wind, hitting 19 mph on Wednesday afternoon with a risk of thunderstorms. The wave energy jumps up, hitting a strong 1323 on Thursday morning, but it's all for nothing with that cross-onshore breeze turning it into a washing machine. Friday the 17th through to the 27th July is more of the same – mixed up, messy, and blown-out. The swell hangs around between 1.3ft and 4.6ft, but the winds just won't give us a break, making it a kite surfer's dream and a paddle surfer's nightmare.
Bottom line: there isn't a single standout session in this entire 16-day run. It could turn around, forecasts can change, but right now, I'd leave the board at home for this stretch and find something else to do.
