The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break down what’s on offer for Praia d’Agua. It’s gonna be a slow start, real quiet, but there’s a solid window of surf if you can wait.
Right now, the surf is tiny. We’re looking at a long stretch of weak, small waves with nothing worth paddling out for. The first few days are a total loss, with the odd knee-high wave but rubbish conditions. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the water is 65°F – right around average for this time of year. Through the end of July and into the first few days of August, the combined swell energy is low (mostly under 200), and the surf is either poor or just ordinary. There’s a gap of about a week with no real recommendations.
Now, the standout window hits on Tuesday, August 4th. The morning is the best of the whole forecast. The swell pushes up to 6 ft from the SE, with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the SW at 15 km/h (9 mph). That’s clean, lined-up surf. The combined energy is a strong 1154 – that’s serious power and it’ll feel heavy. This is for experienced surfers, as it’s over 5 ft and will be a handful for beginners. The afternoon holds at 6 ft from the SE, still clean with a cross-offshore breeze, but the morning is the one to aim for.
After that, the surf drops right back off. Wednesday and Thursday have some rideable waves, but they’re ordinary with onshore winds messing things up. August 6th has a morning with offshore wind and 4 ft swell from the ESE, but it’s not the same quality as Tuesday. The following week fades into tiny, weak conditions again.
So, if you want a wave, circle the morning of Tuesday, August 4th. That’s the real standout. Everything else in this 16-day window is either flat or not worth the drive.

Information about the Praia d'Agua Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Praia d'Agua provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Praia d'Agua can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Praia d'Agua 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 d'Agua) 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 d'Agua 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 d'Agua is 4 km (2 miles) from Imbituba. If you plan a holiday in Santa Catarina - Sul, look for hotels and other accommodation in Imbituba. Imbituba has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
