The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Su Paulo Su.
First off, the water's sitting at a balmy 82°, which is a whopping 6° warmer than normal for this time of year. That's a real standout, very unusual – you're not going to need a wetsuit, that's for sure.
Now, the bad news first. The next week and a half is pretty much a write-off. We're looking at a long, dry spell from now until the 24th of July. There's practically no energy in the water, with the combined swell energy barely registering and the odd tiny pulse of 1ft from the NW. The wind is all over the place, mostly light and variable, but it doesn't matter because there's no swell to work with. It's a classic flat spell.
Then, on the morning of Friday the 24th of July, things finally stir. We get a little pulse of life: a 4ft NW swell, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 140 (moderate wave energy), and with a light offshore wind from the NE, it's looking clean. The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," and I'd agree. It's a small window – by the afternoon the wind swings NW and gets choppy. This is a small, short-period swell, not a classic groundswell, and it's a reef break, so on the right tide it could offer a few fun ones, but it's nothing to write home about.
The real standout, the only one worth planning for, is the morning of Wednesday the 29th of July. The forecast is showing a much better pulse of NW swell, hitting 4ft with an 8-second period and a combined energy of 272 (strong wave energy). The wind is a light offshore from the NE, which is a major positive for this exposed reef. The guidance says "expect good surf conditions," and with the swell direction matching the optimum NW, this is the pick of the month. It's not giant, but it's clean, has some push, and is by far the best on offer. The afternoons will get blown out by a strong NW wind, so get in early.
After that, it fades back into small, weak, and choppy conditions for the rest of the run. So, if you're keen, circle the 29th of July on your calendar. It's a one-morning wonder, but it could be a good one.
Rusty out.

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 Su Paulo Su 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.
