The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this next stretch is a total write-off for surf. We’re looking at a solid 16 days of nothing doing. The models are showing a big fat zero for any decent wave energy, and the guidance backs it up, calling it "poor surf conditions" across the board. This isn't just a quiet spell; it's a flat spell.

The first faint whisper of a wave comes on Thursday, July 24th, with a tiny 3ft swell from the WNW, but the energy is weak (44) and the period is a short 5 seconds. That’s not enough to get excited about, especially with a moderate cross-offshore breeze. It’s a no-go.

For a region where the only break on the radar is Sao Pedro, a sheltered point that "rarely breaks," this kind of blank run is actually pretty normal. When it does work, it needs a specific SW swell, and we just aren't getting it. The wind is mostly cross-off or offshore, but there’s simply no swell to work with.

We do see a glassy calm on Monday, July 27th, but with zero swell, it's a day for the flat water paddle, not the surfboard. The water temperature is sitting at 69°, which is about average for the time of year, so no excuses on that front.

The entire 16-day forecast is a gap. There are no standout days, no hidden gems. If you’re desperate to get wet, you’re going to be waiting a long time. The kite and foil crew might find something on the days with a touch of breeze, but for a proper surf, this is a total bust.

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.
