The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

So, we’re off to a rough start. The first week is basically a write-off. There’s energy in the water, but the conditions are all wrong. It’s a tough run.

We’re looking at a stretch from Tuesday the 18th all the way through to Monday the 24th with nothing worth paddling out for. There’s plenty of swell, with combined wave energy hitting 409 on Tuesday morning, but it’s all coming with poor wind and a cross-chop that’ll have you fighting the surface the whole time.

The first real glimmer of hope comes on Wednesday morning the 19th. Tiririca will have chest to head-high sets at 6ft from the ESE. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit soft and sectiony, but here’s the kicker – the wind is dead glassy. That’s a major positive. It’s the cleanest the place will be all week. If you can get out there Wednesday morning before the wind swings, you might snag a few. Just be aware, crowds are possible here.

After that, it fades fast. The swell drops off and the wind turns onshore or cross-onshore for the rest of the week. Thursday the 20th is only 3ft to 5ft with a light cross-chop, and Friday the 21st has a bit of glass again in the morning with 4ft, but the combined energy is weak at 150. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.

The weekend and the start of the following week are a total dud. From Saturday the 22nd through Monday the 24th, the swell is tiny – under 3ft – and the wind is no good. The combined energy drops to 64 on Monday. Not worth looking at.

Things try to pick up again around Tuesday the 25th, but the wind is still cross-onshore and choppy. There’s a small window Wednesday morning the 26th with 4ft from the ENE and combined energy of 219, but again, it’s cross-onshore. It’s not going to be good.

There is one weird spike on Thursday the 27th. A very long-period groundswell from the SSE at 17 seconds rolls in, but it’s only 2ft. That’s a tease. The energy is moderate at 283, but with that period, it’s going to break straight at a beach break like Tiririca. The wind is also blowing directly onshore from the NE. It’ll be a mess.

Into the final days of August and the first of September, the pattern stays poor. There is some clean wind on Tuesday the 1st of September morning, with a cross-offshore from the S, but the swell is only 3ft from the ESE. Wednesday the 2nd has the same story – clean cross-off wind and 4ft from the E, but the wave comment is just "surfable but very ordinary".

There’s no standout in this whole 16-day run. The best bet is Wednesday morning the 19th for the glassy conditions, but it’s not going to be a world-beater. Keep an eye on it – forecasts can change.

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.
