The Lowdown

Alright, let’s be straight with you. This is a total dead zone for Sororoca. Over the next 16 days, I’ve got zero good surf to recommend. The finder gave me nothing, and the guidance backs it up – this is a reef that rarely breaks, and we’re in a classic dry spell. From now, July 14th, all the way through the 29th, it’s a bust. The swell energy is mostly weak, with values in the low hundreds at best, and the wind is always wrong. For the first week, it’s a constant cross-shore or cross-onshore from the SE, blowing at 12 to 18 mph, which will make a mess of anything. The swell is coming from the E or ESE, but this spot needs it from the NE to work properly. Wave heights stay small, between 3 ft and 5 ft, with periods of 5 to 8 seconds – that’s short-period, weak windswell, not the kind of groundswell that gets this reef going. The water temperature is about 81°F, which is normal for the time of year. On the 24th, there’s a brief moment of cleaner conditions with a light cross-offshore breeze from the S at 9 mph, but the swell is still only 4 ft from the ESE with a weak period of 7 seconds and wave energy of 161 – it’s not enough to paddle out for. There’s no standout session, no hidden gem, no reason to get your hopes up. With the strong SE winds and the exposed nature of the break, it’s looking more like a kite surfing proposition than a paddle surfing one. That’s the long and short of it. 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.
