Alright, pull up a stump and listen close. Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you. For Tabinha, this forecast is a tough one.
First thing you need to know is the water temp is sitting at 82°, which is nearly 2° warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s like bath water, but that’s about the only positive I can find for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, we are looking at a massive dry spell. From now, right through the end of the forecast period on July 19th, the signals are just flat-out poor. You’re staring down a long stretch with nothing worth paddling out for. The combined swell energy is mostly weak, bouncing around between 102 and 345 (moderate at best), and even those modest bumps are plagued by short-period, weak windswell from the East, with periods hanging around a measly 6 to 7 seconds. That’s not going to produce anything with any shape or push. Swell heights are mostly a weak 3 to 5 ft.
The wind is the main villain here. It’s a relentless cross or cross-off breeze from the ESE or E at 12 to 16 mph every single day. That’s a constant chop-churner. Even on the mornings that are marked as "clean," the underlying swell is so weak and poor it wouldn't be worth the effort.
There are a few moments that pop up as “marginal” – like Sunday the 5th morning and Monday the 6th morning. Those see the energy climb a little (345 on Sunday, 245 on Monday) and the wind goes cross-off from the SE, which would clean up the surface a touch. The swell is still tiny, only about 5 ft from the E with that pathetic 6 to 7 second period, so it’s gonna be fat and weak. If you’re desperate, you could have a look, but don’t expect anything worth writing home about.
For a break that’s consistent, to have the scorecard stay at zero or one for a full sixteen days is pretty unusual. It just means the conditions aren't lining up for a single good session.
Bottom line for Tabinha: It’s a long wait, my friends. Don’t get your hopes up until we see a serious change in the weather pattern. For now, wax your board and wait.
Stay salty,
Rusty

Information about the Tabinha Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tabinha provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tabinha can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tabinha 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 (Tabinha) 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 Tabinha 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.
