The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the coming days.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it's a pretty grim picture for the São Pedro stretch. The forecast is showing a whole lot of nothing for the next couple of weeks. We're looking at a dry spell that runs from the start of the period all the way through to the 19th of August. There just isn't any surf to get excited about.
The few little pulses of swell that do show up are tiny, with wave heights barely pushing 1 foot at best, and almost always a lot smaller. The wind is a constant cross-off from the northwest, which isn't the worst direction for the spot, but with no power in the water, it's just not doing anything for us. The swell energy is practically non-existent.
São Pedro itself is a sheltered point break that is listed as "rarely breaks," and this forecast is a perfect example of why. It's a beginner-friendly spot when it's working, but with this outlook, it's not going to be working at all.
Honestly, for the first week and a half, there's just no point in even looking at the water. This looks more like a stretch for the kite surfers than anyone with a paddle. It's a tough call, but this is just one of those blank runs that happens in this area.
The only glimmer, and I mean the faintest glimmer, might be around the 19th of August. We see a tiny bit of swell under 1 foot from the SSW, with a period of 14 seconds. That's a long-period groundswell, but the energy is still weak. It's a long way out, and I wouldn't pin my hopes on it. The winds are still strong and onshore, so it's not promising.
Signing off, 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.
