The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for Sao Pedro over the next 16 days is a tough one. We’ve got a solid run of days with basically nothing worth paddling out for.

Right from the start, Sunday the 9th through to the end of the period, the wave energy is just not there. We’re looking at a combined swell energy that barely gets out of single digits, peaking at a measly 62 (62) on the 21st of August. The swell heights are tiny – we’re talking 0.3ft to 0.7ft at best. That’s ankle-snappers, not surfable waves. The wind is mostly a cross-off or cross-shore breeze, which is fine for the conditions, but there’s simply no power in the water to work with.

Sao Pedro itself is a sheltered point break that rarely breaks, and this forecast proves it. For the entire first week and a half, it’s a flat spell. You’d be wasting your time. The water temp is sitting around 68°F, which is about normal for this time of year, so a wetsuit won't be the problem – the lack of waves will be.

Now, there is a tiny glimmer in the second week, but it’s a long-range promise. Around the 21st of August, we see a slight uptick in energy. Friday the 21st has the highest energy of the whole run at 62 (62), with a 0.7ft SSW swell and a period of 15 seconds. That long period suggests it’s a groundswell, which could wrap into this sheltered spot, but at that size, it’s still barely a ripple. The wind on Friday morning is a light cross-onshore from the west, not ideal but workable. Saturday the 22nd looks cleaner with a cross-off NW breeze, but again, it’s only 0.7ft.

Honestly, if you’re desperate for a splash, the 21st or 22nd of August are the only dates with a pulse, and even then, it’s for the most patient surfer on a longboard. There’s no standout here. Just a long, flat wait.

Stay tuned, forecasts change. Until then, keep the boards waxed and the coffee hot.

Rusty.

Information about the Sao Pedro Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Sao Pedro provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Sao Pedro can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Sao Pedro 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 (Sao Pedro) 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 Sao Pedro 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.
