The Lowdown

Alright, let me be straight with you. The outlook for Sao Pedro over the next 16 days is a tough one. There’s just no wave energy to get excited about. The first real surf we see doesn’t start showing any life until later, and even then, it’s a real struggle.

Right out of the gate, from Tuesday the 11th right through the weekend, we’re looking at flat to near-flat conditions. A few tiny pulses of swell, around 0.3 ft, with a long period from the south, but the combined energy is just pitiful – we’re talking single-digit figures (2 to 12) on the energy scale. The winds are mostly cross-off from the north and northwest, which would be fine if there was any wave to ride, but there isn’t. It’s a blank run that lasts for nearly a week.

We do start seeing a slight increase from the south-southwest around Monday the 17th, but the swell height is still tiny at 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft, and the energy only crawls into the low 20s and 30s. The first shot at anything even remotely clean comes on the morning of Wednesday the 19th, with a bit of offshore wind from the northeast and a 0.7 ft SSW swell at a 14-second interval. The energy is weak though (24). Honestly, it’s barely worth a paddle.

The absolute standout in this sorry window is the morning of Thursday the 20th. We’ve got a glassy, dead-calm morning, which is a rare treat. The swell is still only 0.7 ft from the SSW, with a 13-second period, and the energy is a moderate 27. For a sheltered, rarely-breaking point break like this, that glassy surface is the only time you might catch a little knee-high sliver. But it’s a long-shot at best for even a longboard.

Even the late period, like the morning of Sunday the 23rd with a moderate offshore wind, still only pushes 0.3 ft of swell. The south swell direction is the optimum for this spot, but the size is just cruel. For beginners, it’s not too big – it’s too small. For experts, there’s nothing here. This is just one of those quiet stretches where the ocean holds its breath. Forecasts can change, but for now, you’re better off doing something else.

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.
