The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – the surf outlook for the next 16 days around Sao Pedro is a proper bummer.
Overall, it’s a dead flat pattern. The ocean is basically switched off. We’re looking at a long stretch with next to nothing to ride.
The first little flicker of hope comes on Wednesday, August 5th. A tiny 0.3m swell from the west, with a short 10 second period. The combined energy is a weak 19. The wind is cross-offshore from the NNW at 20 km/h, so the surface will be clean, but honestly, it’s just a knee-high dribble. Tuesday morning, August 11th, shows a similar 0.3m, 7-second pulse from the west, but it’s even weaker.
For the rest of the run, it’s a long stretch of zeros and "poor surf conditions." The majority of the first week and the entire second week are just tiny, unrideable bumps. Even when we get some longer period energy from the south and southwest, like the 18-second swell on August 15th, there’s no height to work with.
Remember, Sao Pedro is a rarely breaks point break, so a flat spell like this is more normal for the area. It’s a sheltered spot that needs a proper SW swell to get going. The direction is right a few times, but the size is all wrong. Keep the faith, forecasts can flip. But for now, it’s a no-go.
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.
