Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Praia Tenório.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. Tuesday morning is just not happening with small, messy cross-onshore 3ft swell and a combined energy of only 287 – weak and wobbly. Tuesday afternoon is even worse. So, we’re essentially waiting until Wednesday.
Wednesday the 8th is where it kicks off. The morning is looking glassy with a 4ft swell from the SE, period around 9 seconds. That’s a solid, clean wave for a beginner-plus spot. The energy is a touch better at 301, and with glassy conditions and a 3ft in the afternoon, this is a proper little window. The wind is dead calm, so the surface will be clean as a whistle.
Thursday the 9th drops off a bit. The morning has a clean 2ft swell, but the energy is down to 143 and it’s a bit ordinary. Friday the 10th is tiny, just 2ft, and with energy down at 62, it’s barely breaking. Saturday and Sunday the 11th and 12th are flat. You’re looking at a real dry spell there.
Then, a proper standout appears on Monday the 13th. The morning session brings a 4ft southerly swell, with a 12-second period – that’s groundswell energy. The combined energy jumps to 543, which is a noticeable step up. The wind is a clean cross-offshore, so the waves should have some shape. This is the best of the bunch. It’s not huge, but it’s the most powerful and cleanest swell in the whole forecast. The afternoon gets a bit rowdy though, jumping to 7ft with a 7-second period and onshore wind – that’s a messy, choppy mess for the beginners, and the energy is 1016, so it’s got some grunt but the quality is gone.
After that, Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th offer some decent, glassy 4ft to 4ft waves with periods around 9-10 seconds, and moderate energy in the 300-200 range. Good for a fun, cruisy session. Thursday the 16th is similar but fading. Then from Friday the 17th all the way through to Wednesday the 22nd, it’s basically flat. Tiny waves, no energy, just a long stretch of nothing.
So, the standout is Monday the 13th morning. That 4ft southerly groundswell with cross-offshore wind and 543 energy is the best wave on offer. The water temp is about average for the time of year, no major anomalies to report.
Stay stoked, but don’t hold your breath for the second week.
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.
