The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the coming weeks.
It’s a pretty lean run for the most part, to be honest. We’re looking at a long stretch of days where the conditions just aren’t coming together, so don’t get your hopes up too high. The first real chance to get wet isn’t until the morning of Sunday the 10th, and even then, it’s ordinary.
Sunday 10th August morning is the standout, and it’s the only time I’d really tell you to paddle out. At Tiririca, the wind is glassy, which is a huge bonus. The swell is small at 3 ft from the ENE, but it’s clean. The combined energy is weak (86), so you won’t be getting any power, but for a beginner-friendly spot that’s consistent, it’s a nice little window. The water temp is 79°, which is about normal for this time of year.
After that, the picture turns pretty ordinary. The wind stays cross or cross-onshore for days, and the swell direction is mostly E or ESE. The energy picks up a bit, but the quality just isn’t there. Thursday 13th August morning has a brief moment with clean conditions and a 4 ft swell from the E, but the wind is cross-offshore, so it’s a maybe. The energy is moderate (313), but it’s not a guarantee.
We’ve got a long gap of poor to marginal surf from the 11th all the way through the 19th. The wind is consistently wrong, and the waves are choppy. Then, Thursday 20th August morning shows a glimmer of hope. The wind swings to glassy again, with a 4 ft swell from the E. The energy is moderate (324), and it’s the closest thing to a second standout we get. It’s a long way out, so don’t lock it in, but keep an eye on it.
The rest of the run into the 24th is mostly cross-on wind and small, weak swell. The biggest issue is the wind direction, which rarely lines up for clean conditions. There’s a few days with a bigger swell, like the 18th and 19th, with 6 ft from the ESE, but the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s a messy, choppy mess. That’s more of a kite session than a surf.
So, to sum it up: the best bet is Sunday 10th August morning at Tiririca for a clean, tiny glassy session, and maybe Thursday 20th August morning if the forecast holds. Everything else is a bit of a write-off.
Rusty.

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.
Tiririca is 37 km (23 miles) from Ubaitaba. If you plan a holiday in Bahia - Sul, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ubaitaba. Ubaitaba has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
