Table - best surf conditions forecast for Sororoca over the next 16 days.
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Sororoca over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, the outlook is a bit of a write-off for the most part. Sororoca is a reef break that rarely breaks anyway, and we’re looking at a long stretch of poor conditions. The water is sitting at about 81°F at the start, which is pretty normal for the time of year, not much of a story there.
The first real chance of anything half-decent doesn’t roll in until Friday, the 24th of July. Up until then, it’s a solid block of days with no worthwhile surf. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore from the SE, often with a decent chop, and the swell is weak and short-period. The combined energy barely gets into the moderate range, peaking at around 336 (moderate wave energy) on the 19th, but it’s all messy.
The only standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Friday, the 24th. We finally get a bit of a cleaner look with a cross-offshore breeze from the south. The swell is 5 ft from the east, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 279 (moderate wave energy), and the wave comment says “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” It’s not a classic, but it’s the only window where the wind is actually working with us. The break itself is exposed to swell, but it’s a reef, and with the east swell direction, it might hold a bit of shape. The crowd factor is “sometimes,” so you might have company, but it won’t be a zoo.
Don’t bother with the rest of the 16 days. The wind is almost always on it, and the swell is too weak and short. It’s a bleak run.

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.
