The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you. Right now, it's looking pretty desperate out there. We've got a solid run of days ahead with nothing but small, weak, and messy conditions on the cards for Tiririca. The swell energy is weak, sitting under the 300 mark for most of the period, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which is going to leave the surface chopped up and ugly. There are no quality waves on the horizon, so if you're jonesing for a surf, you might have to find something else to do for a while.
We're looking at a real lull. The water here at Tiririca is running at about 79.2°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't need much rubber, but you might need a snorkel more than a surfboard.
The whole run through this week and into next is poor. We see light breezes, but they're not helping the tiny, grovelly waves. The swell just doesn't have any push, with periods mostly in the 7 to 8 second range and heights barely scraping past 3.3ft. There's a slight bump to 4.3ft on Thursday the 17th and again on the 17th, but it's short-period windswell, and the wind is still junk. It's just going to be a messy, frustrating paddle.
Honestly, this is a blank run. There's nothing here that stands out as a "go" day. The conditions are so consistently poor that it's not worth getting your hopes up. The forecasts can and do change, but as it stands, this is a time to fix your boards, work on your pop-up on the carpet, or find a different hobby for a couple of weeks.
The swell energy is weak, ranging from about 101 to 303, and it's clear the ocean just isn't cooperating. Every single period in the outlook is rated as poor. There's no hidden gem in the second week, either. The swell gets a little longer on the 23rd and 24th, with periods up to 12 seconds, but the heights drop right off, to 1.6ft and 2ft. Even with a bit more length, it's not enough to do anything with. For the time being, Tiririca is a no-go. It's a long, flat, and frustrating outlook. This is a time to be patient, and wait for the ocean to switch on again.

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