Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Sororoca over the next two and a bit weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with ya – this stretch looks rough. There are some small windows of swell but the wind and conditions just won’t let us get a clean ride for most of it.

Right from the start, Wednesday morning the 8th of July, we’ve got a small 3 ft swell pushing in from the ESE with a short 7-second period. The combined energy is weak (107). The wind is a moderate SSE breeze at 12 mph, blowing cross-shore, and that means a cross-chop on the wave face. It’s just messy. Not really worth paddling out for.

That poor run continues solidly through until Sunday the 12th. Swells stay around the 3 ft to 4 ft mark, mostly from the E or ESE, periods are short between 6 and 7 seconds. Wind stays cross-shore or cross-onshore, and the conditions are consistently labelled as poor. The energy picks up a bit on Saturday the 11th (156 to 199), but still not enough to overcome the chop.

Monday the 13th of July sees the biggest swell of the whole period – up to 5 ft from the E with a 7-second period. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 390, but that’s about it for positives. Because the wind is still cross-onshore from the ESE at 12 mph, the waves are going to be choppy and crumbly. This is not your clean lined-up day. At 5 ft, it’s still okay for most intermediates, but the quality just isn’t there.

The rest of the week from Tuesday the 14th through to Sunday the 19th stays in that frustrating zone. Swell heights mostly between 3 ft and 4 ft, short periods of 6 to 7 seconds, and a steady cross-onshore wind – sometimes gentler, sometimes a moderate breeze. The energy bounces around from weak to moderate, but the “poor surf conditions” label never leaves us. Even when the wind eases on the 19th and turns onshore, the rain showers won’t help.

The last few days from Monday the 20th through to Thursday the 23rd of July are smaller and weaker. Swell drops to 2 ft to 4 ft, with short periods. Combined energy is mostly weak. The wind finally swings cross-shore again on the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd, but at such minimal size it’s hardly worth suiting up.

If you’re a kite surfer, those 4 ft to 5 ft days with consistent cross-onshore wind on the 12th and 13th might look more interesting. For the rest of us, this is one to skip. The reef breaks rarely, and with the conditions like this, it just isn’t happening. I wouldn’t hold your breath – but forecasts can change, and a spot like this doesn’t stay flat forever.

Rusty.

Information about the Sororoca Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Sororoca provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Sororoca can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Sororoca 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 (Sororoca) 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 Sororoca 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.

Sororoca is 16 km (10 miles) from Canguaretama. If you plan a holiday in Rio Grande Do Norte, look for hotels and other accommodation in Canguaretama. Canguaretama has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
