The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a grim stretch. We’ve got a long run of poor surf conditions ahead. For the first 14 days, from Thursday the 10th right through to late on Tuesday the 23rd, the surf is mostly a write-off. The wind is nearly always onshore or cross-onshore, and the wave quality is just not there. You’ll see a few marginal windows, but nothing that’s worth getting excited about. You’re looking at about a two-week gap before we get anything close to a real recommendation.
The only break on the cards is Tiririca. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, consistent, but it’s exposed and the swell direction is rarely working with the wind. The water temperature is sitting at 79°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The one standout, and I mean the only one worth marking on your calendar, is the morning of Wednesday the 16th. Now, the swell is small at 3 ft from the ESE, but the wind goes glassy, coming from the NNW at only 3 mph. That’s a rare window of perfect, clean conditions. The combined swell energy is weak (191), so don’t expect power, but for a beginner-friendly wave with no wind ripples, it’s the best we’ve got. It’s not a big day, but it’ll be a clean one. Crowds are possible here, so keep that in mind.
After that, it’s back to the same old story until Thursday the 24th. That morning, the swell bumps up to 4 ft from the E with a long period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy hits moderate (375). The wind is light and onshore from the NE, so it’s not perfect, but it’s the most energy we’ve seen in weeks. It’s a long-range call, so don’t bank on it, but it’s the only other flicker of life in the forecast.
Honestly, the next two weeks are not going to be kind to the paddle surfer. The setup is better suited for kite surfing than traditional surfing during most of this period.
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.
