The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. What we’ve got here is a classic case of a spot that’s awake but not really alive for most of the forecast. The only real window of decent surf is a long, long way off, on the 18th and 19th of August. Before that, it’s a wasteland of tiny, weak, or non-existent waves.
Looking at the overall picture, the first ten days or so are basically a write-off. From Friday the 7th all the way through to Sunday the 16th, the wave energy is just pathetic. We’re talking about combined energy readings in the single digits, or even zero. There’s a brief, tiny bump on the 13th afternoon with a 2ft swell from the NW, but the period is a short 4 seconds and the wind is a messy cross-shore, making it choppy and unappealing. That’s about the best of the first week, and it’s still really poor.
Now, the real action, if you can call it that, is saved for the second week. On Monday the 18th of August, things start to wake up. The morning brings a 7ft swell from the NW with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 665 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a moderate cross-onshore though, so it’ll be choppy. The afternoon gets even bigger, hitting 12ft from the NW with a 10-second period, and the energy kicks up to 2173 (strong wave energy). That’s a big, powerful swell, but with that onshore wind, it’s going to be a mess. This is expert territory, for sure.
The standout, the only real highlight of the whole 16 days, looks like the morning of Wednesday the 19th of August. The swell is still a solid 7ft from the NW, with an 8-second period, and the combined energy is a healthy 589. The game-changer here is the wind: a light offshore breeze from the ESE. That’s going to clean up the face nicely. This is a true window for quality surf at Su Paulo Su. The reef setup should handle that long-period groundswell well, but it’s still a big swell, so it’s not for the faint of heart. Expect crowds to be possible at this spot.
After that, the energy drops off a cliff again. Thursday the 20th sees a drop to 3ft, and by Friday it’s back to tiny, weak waves. So, the plan is simple: wait. Wait for that Wednesday morning window on the 19th of August. Everything else is a hard pass.
