The Lowdown
Alright, folks, let's be real. The next 16 days at Praia Olho d'Agua are looking pretty bleak. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing good to start, and it doesn’t really get better. The first surf shows up on Wednesday, August 5th, but it’s a bummer. The water’s a touch warmer than normal at 84°F, but that’s the only highlight.
So, here’s the deal. From Wednesday, August 5th, all the way through the second week, it’s just “poor surf conditions.” The wind is a mess – cross, cross-on, cross-off – and it’s always blowing a moderate to fresh breeze, keeping it lumpy and choppy. The swell is tiny, mostly 3 ft to 4 ft, with a short, weak period of 4 to 6 seconds. The combined energy is weak, with values mostly under 100 (between 15 and 90). There’s no power, no shape, no clean windows.
I can’t even point to a real standout. Your best bet might be a quick cleaner spell on the mornings of Thursday, August 13th, and Saturday, August 15th, when the wind turns cross-off from the East. But even then, the swell is still weak and short-period, coming from the ENE or NE. It’s just not worth it.
Yeah, there’s a little bump in energy on Monday, August 17th, with the combined energy hitting 119 in the morning. But the wind is still a fresh cross-shore, and the surf is labeled “poor.” It’s a no-go.
The last few days, from August 18th onward, are a total write-off. The swell either disappears or gets blown out by fresh onshore winds.
So, what’s the verdict? Honestly, stow the board. This is one of those blank runs that’s normal for this area. Don’t sweat it – forecasts can change, but for now, there’s nothing to ride.
