The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let's call it like it is: the next 16 days at São Pedro are a real test of your patience. We've got a long stretch of flat and windy, but there's a little pulse of energy way out at the end of the forecast that's worth knowing about. The first big gap hits from Friday afternoon the 6th of September all the way through to Thursday the 12th—dead flat, zero surf. After that, it's tiny dribbles until the last few days.
The standout, and really the only session worth circling, is Friday the 18th of September. The afternoon brings a 5ft swell from the WSW, with a short 8-second period, and a combined energy of 221 (moderate). The wind is a cross-onshore from the WSW at 9 mph, so it'll be a little bumpy, but that's the biggest wave we'll see in the whole 16 days. The morning of the 18th will be smaller, around 3ft, but cleaner with lighter NW winds. For a spot that rarely breaks, this is a real chance.
The rest of the window is a bust. From the 7th to the 11th, it's a flat spell. From the 12th, we get some tiny, ankle-high stuff in the 0.3ft to 1.0ft range, mostly from the W or S, with those long 11 to 12-second periods, but the energy is absolutely pathetic (2 to 10). The winds are often favorable, cross-off or offshore, but with no swell, it's just a glassy pond. The water is about average for the season.
The morning of the 11th of September might offer a 1.0ft W swell with a 7-second period, clean with a light offshore breeze. It's a micro-session if you're totally desperate. But for the vast majority of this 16-day window, the surf is just not there. This is a classic dry spell for the area. It won't last forever, but this particular forecast window is a tough one until that Friday the 18th.
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.
