The Lowdown

Alright, let’s break this down. It’s looking bleak for any proper waves in the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a real flat spell kicking in. The first hint of anything doesn’t show up for ages. From Wednesday the 26th of August all the way through to Tuesday the 8th of September, it’s a dead zone. The ocean is going to be flat or just tiny slop with no power. That’s a solid stretch of over a week with zero recommendations. It’s one of those dry runs.

The only spot we’ve got on the list is Sao Pedro. It’s a point break that’s sheltered, but it rarely breaks, so you know it’s tricky. The water temp is 68°, which is pretty average for this time of year, nothing unusual.

Right at the tail end, on Wednesday the 10th of September, there’s a tiny flicker. The swell direction is from the SW, which is the direction this place likes. But the size is a pathetic 0.3ft, period is 12 seconds, and the combined energy is only 9 (weak). The wind in the morning is a light offshore from the NNW, making it glassy and clean. It looks nice, but there’s no wave to ride. The afternoon turns into a cross-onshore chop. Not worth the drive.

So, the honest truth? There’s no standout. Nothing to get the heart rate up. This forecast is a total washout for surfing. If you need to be in the water, bring a kiteboard or a paddleboard. Keep watching the charts, but for now, it’s a dud.

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.
