The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the Su Paulo Su lineup.
Alright, straight up: this is a tough stretch. The forecast shows a long, dry spell of nothing much happening. The first proper sign of any life doesn't show up until September 3rd, Thursday morning. Before that, we're looking at a solid five days of flat to tiny, rubbish conditions. It's a quiet run for this reef break.
Come Thursday morning the 3rd, we finally see a small pulse of swell. It's a 3ft wave from the NW, with a 7-second period. The combined energy is weak at 55. The wind is a light cross-offshore, so the surface will be clean. It's nothing to write home about, but it's surfable. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year.
Friday morning the 4th brings a similar story: a 3ft NW swell, period of 7 seconds, and moderate energy (88). The wind is light and cross-off again, keeping it clean. Still just ordinary, but it's a chance to get wet.
The real standout, the one you've been waiting for, is Saturday morning September 5th. This is the best on offer. The swell picks up to a solid 5ft from the NW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 276. The wind is glassy, dead calm. That's a massive positive. The surf will be clean and lined up. The swell direction is right on the money for this exposed reef, and it's a consistent spot. Keep in mind, 5ft is getting a bit more size, so it might be too much for beginners. The water is still that touch warmer than usual.
The following morning, Sunday the 6th, is glassy again but the swell drops right back to 2ft with energy down to 37. After that, from Monday the 7th right through, it's back to flatness and poor conditions. There's a blip on Thursday the 10th morning with a 7ft NW swell (8 sec period, energy 504), but the wind is cross-shore and it's cloudy, making it a messy option. That's only for the experts if it's even worth it.
For the second week, the outlook is grim. The only other chance is that Thursday the 10th, which is a long way off and looks compromised. Between the 5th and the 10th, there's a big gap of nothing.
So, to wrap it up: hold out for Saturday morning, September 5th. That's your window. Get down there early for the glassy conditions and a proper NW swell. The rest of the period is a write-off for this spot.
Rusty.

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.
