The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a grim 16-day window for Sao Pedro. We’re looking at a long, flat stretch with barely a ripple to get excited about. The guidance tells me this spot is a sheltered point break that rarely breaks, and this forecast is living up to that reputation. The water temp is sitting around 67°, which is about normal for the time of year, so that’s one thing you won’t have to complain about.
The first real nothing happens on Saturday afternoon, August 1st, with a tiny 2ft swell from the west at 9 seconds. The combined energy is weak (71) and the wind is a cross-off, but it’s still labelled as poor surf conditions. That pretty much sets the tone. Sunday, August 2nd, is even smaller at 2ft, and by Sunday afternoon the swell is gone. From Monday, August 3rd, through to the end of the forecast on August 16th, it’s a desert. We’re talking flat spells, with the occasional 0.3ft slop that wouldn’t even tickle a longboard. The wind is mostly cross-off from the north, but there’s no swell to work with. The longest period we see is a 13-second groundswell on Tuesday, August 4th morning, but it’s only 0.3ft – that’s just a bad joke.
The only hint of a pulse comes on Sunday, August 9th, with 2ft windswell from the west at a short 7 seconds. Combined energy is still weak (28). It’s clean, but for a point break that needs a proper swell direction, this is nothing. The rest of the month is a total write-off. There are no standouts, no days to circle on the calendar. If you’re a paddle surfer, you’re better off finding a new hobby for the next two weeks. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, if you’re into that sort of thing.
This is a tough one. Keep your gear waxed and hope the long-range forecasts change, because right now, it’s a total blank.
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.
