The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the stretch ahead for Praia Tenório.
Right now, we’re looking at a pretty slow start. The first few days are a bit of a write-off. Friday the 7th and Saturday the 8th are both flat with poor conditions, so don’t even bother paddling out. Sunday the 9th is still a no-go, with messy onshore wind and junk surf. Honestly, you’ll be better off doing something else until the middle of the week.
Things start to get a little more interesting from Monday the 10th. We’ve got some swell pushing in, but it’s still onshore and a bit raw. Not worth getting excited about yet. The real turning point comes Wednesday morning, the 12th of August. The morning is glassy, with a clean 5ft SSE swell running at 12 seconds. Wind is nearly nothing, light ENE, and it’s glassy. The water is much warmer than usual for this time of year – about 73°, which is over two degrees above the norm. That’s a nice bonus. The combined energy is moderate (613). It’s not pumping, but it’s clean and rideable for a beginner-plus level. This is a solid option for a relaxed session.
Then Thursday the 13th stays glassy in the morning, with 4ft SSE swell and a similar period. Still clean, still small, still good for a longboard or a funboard. The energy is moderate (503). It’s pretty consistent here, so you won’t be waiting around forever.
Now, the standout in this whole window is Friday the 14th. The morning session is the pick of the bunch. We’ve got 5ft SSE swell, with a very long period of 15 seconds – that’s proper groundswell energy. The wind is glassy, light SSE, and the combined energy is strong (948). The water is still warm, the conditions are clean, and the waves have proper shape. This is the kind of morning you set the alarm for. Just keep in mind, with that long period, the sets might be a little more spaced out, but the trade-off is better shaped waves and easier paddling between sets. It’s a good mix of size and quality for a confident surfer.
Saturday the 15th drops off a bit, with onshore wind and a smaller, messier swell. Sunday the 16th is a no-go again with cross-shore chop and dropping energy. From Monday the 17th through to the end of the window, it’s basically flat or tiny. There’s a tiny bump on Saturday the 22nd, with 2ft to 2ft S swell and glassy wind, but it’s very ordinary. Nothing to write home about.
So, bottom line: the best bet is Friday morning, the 14th of August. That’s the one to circle. Wednesday and Thursday mornings are good alternatives if you can’t wait. The rest of the run is mostly flat or poor.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
