The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Praia Tenório's got cookin' for us over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a bit are looking pretty tame. We've got a run of small, knee-high dribblers that are more about getting wet than getting a proper wave. The first real chance to paddle out comes on Tuesday the 28th of July with tiny 1 ft waves from the SSE. The water's sittin' at 71°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – a nice little bonus for the skin. The real standout though, and I mean the *only* standout in this whole 16-day window, is shaping up for Wednesday the 12th of August.
Now, for the first week, from Tuesday afternoon through to Saturday the 8th of August, it's pretty grim. Most days offer up surfable waves, but they're honestly "very ordinary". Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th of July see the same 2 ft bumps, but the wind messes things up a bit. Friday the 31st of July morning shows a little pulse of energy (124) with 2 ft waves and dead calm winds, but it's short-lived as the afternoon gets shredded by a 12 mph cross-shore breeze. Saturday the 1st of August has glassy 2 ft waves again, but it's all just too small to get excited about. Then we hit a proper dry spell from Sunday the 2nd of August right through to Wednesday the 6th of August – just poor conditions or tiny leftover slop.
The vibe shifts a little around Thursday the 7th of August morning. We get a 2 ft bump from the SSE with a clean cross-offshore breeze, making it surfable. That little window fades again into Saturday and Sunday the 8th and 9th of August which are just poor, with onshore winds mucking things up.
But hold onto your leashes, because the real story is Wednesday the 12th of August morning at Praia Tenório. The swell is gonna pump up to a solid 6 ft from the south. This isn't just a bump; there's a ton of energy in the water (814), and with the wind going absolutely glassy calm, it's going to be *primo*. The period is only short at 8 seconds, but for this spot, that consistent, clean energy with no wind will produce the best waves of the whole forecast. This is a morning for the experienced crew, as 6 ft can be a bit much if you're just learning. The afternoon on the 12th holds up well too, with 5 ft waves and offshore winds, but the morning is the clear winner. It's a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed, but this one is a genuine highlight.
Except for that Wednesday the 12th, it's a quiet couple of weeks. These things can change though, so don't write it off completely.

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.
