Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s up for Praia Tenório.
Okay, so the first thing to say is we’ve got a big dry spell. From now until the 25th of July, there’s really nothing worth paddling out for. Sure, there’s a pulse around the 13th and 14th of July with some swell hitting 8ft, but the wind is all wrong – cross-on and messy. The energy is there (2102) but it’s not clean. It’s a tough wait, but it happens.
The one real standout that’s got me stoked is Wednesday morning, 15th of July. This is the pick of the lot. We’re looking at a clean 6ft swell from the southeast, with a period of 11 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell. The wind is glassy, dead flat, so the waves will be smooth and clean. The energy is decent (686) – not huge, but plenty for a good session. This is a beginner-plus spot, and at that size, it’s ideal for getting some fun waves. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no big surprises.
There’s a possible second chance way down the line. Keep an eye on Sunday, 26th of July – both the morning and afternoon. We’ve got a glassy morning with a 4ft south swell (642 energy), and a glassy afternoon with a 3ft SSE swell that has a super long period of 16 seconds (615 energy). That long period will make the waves push through nicely here, but it might be a bit too straight for some. It’s a promising long-range call, but more than a week out, don’t plan your life around it. The 27th of July looks like it’s back to being sloppy with onshore winds.
So, bottom line: the 15th of July is your best bet. Get out there Wednesday morning. The rest of the time? It’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Praia Tenório Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Praia Tenório provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Praia Tenório can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Praia Tenório surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Praia Tenório) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Praia Tenório may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Praia Tenório is 4 km (2 miles) from the city of Ubatuba. If you plan a holiday in São Paulo, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ubatuba. Ubatuba has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
