The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the cards at Siriu over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow burn with some tidy windows if you’re patient.
We’re kicking off the forecast period on Monday the 14th with some clean but modest surf. The water is sitting at 62°, which is a good three and a half degrees colder than what’s normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a thick wetsuit. The morning sees a south swell around 4ft with an 11-second period – that’s a proper groundswell with a bit of push. The wind is light and cross-offshore out of the SW, keeping things clean. Combined wave energy is moderate at 436. It’s a good, honest start for a beginner-friendly wave. The afternoon stays similar with a touch less energy (426) and an even lighter breeze.
Tuesday the 15th is smaller. The morning drops to 3ft from the SSE with a shorter 8-second period and light cross-off wind – still clean but weaker, with combined energy down to 223. The afternoon gets a little messy with cross-shore wind and marginal conditions. Wednesday the 16th morning looks like the best of the early week: 5ft from the SSE, 8-second period, clean with light cross-off wind. Energy climbs to 294. But the afternoon turns ugly as a moderate south wind brings chop. Thursday the 17th offers some size – 5ft from the SSE with a solid 11-second period (energy jumps to 551) – but the wind is cross-shore in the morning and gets cross-on and choppy in the afternoon. Not worth it.
Friday the 18th and Saturday the 19th are poor to messy. Saturday sees a rise in size to 6-7ft from the ENE, but that’s paired with rain, cross-on wind, and a short 7-second period. That combo is just ugly – more of a kite-surfing setup than paddle surfing. Combined energy hits 742 but the quality is gone.
Sunday the 20th is a big red flag. The swell jumps to 10ft from the ENE with 9-second period and combined energy through the roof at 2210. That is way too big for this break – expert only, and even then it’s lumpy with a cross-shore breeze and rain. Leave it alone.
The standout comes Monday the 21st. The morning is absolute magic: 6ft from the ENE, 9-second period, and glassy conditions – zero wind. The combined energy is still solid at 635, and the wave comment says it all: “very good surf conditions.” If you can get out Monday morning, that’s your session. The afternoon gets a light cross-on breeze, so don’t sleep in.
Tuesday the 22nd and Wednesday the 23rd drop back to 4-4ft with short-period swell and mostly cross or cross-on wind. Wednesday morning has a clean window with cross-off SW wind, but it’s small. Thursday the 24th offers a bit more period at 11 seconds with a south swell around 4ft, but the wind turns onshore and choppy by afternoon. Combined energy sits around 522 in the morning, but it’s marginal.
From Friday the 25th through Saturday the 26th, the surf fades fast. Swell drops below 3ft and winds get fresh and onshore. Sunday the 27th has a surprise: a glassy morning with 3ft south swell, 11-second period, and clean conditions. Combined energy is 336 – not huge but clean. It’s a decent little window if you’re keen.
Monday the 28th is rain and cross-on, nothing doing. But Tuesday the 29th morning brings another glassy session: 5ft from the SSE, 10-second period, combined energy 498. Clean, calm, and fun. That afternoon picks up to 5ft with a longer 11-second period and energy of 621, but a light cross-on breeze creeps in. Still a solid day.
In the long run, keep an eye on Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 29th mornings – those are the real gems. The rest is mostly small or blown out, but when it’s on, it’s clean.
Rusty.

Information about the Siriu Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Siriu provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Siriu can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Siriu 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 (Siriu) 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 Siriu 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.
Siriu is 27 km (17 miles) from Imbituba. If you plan a holiday in Santa Catarina - Sul, look for hotels and other accommodation in Imbituba. Imbituba has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
