The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks in the ol’ imperial system.
Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. Most of this period is a write-off for any kind of decent session. We’ve got a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions, with wind and swell timing just not lining up. The first real glimmer comes mid-period, but honestly, you’re waiting a while.
The only break we’ve got to talk about is Tiririca. It’s a beginner-friendly spot that’s consistent, but the winds are a nightmare for most of the run. The water’s sitting at a warm 79°, which is about a degree and a half above the long-term average – feels good on the skin but doesn’t make the surf any better.
Monday August 10th starts off with the best chance in the whole outlook. You get a glassy morning with an east swell at 3 ft and a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak (86), so it’s not powerful, but for a beginner spot in clean, calm conditions, it’s actually surfable. That’s the standalone highlight – the only morning that’s truly worth paddling out for. It’s small, but glassy is gold.
From there, it’s a long, grim road. Monday afternoon turns cross-onshore and tiny. Tuesday gets cross-shore and choppy with rain. Wednesday the 12th sees a bump in energy (866 for the morning) and a heavier 8 ft swell, but that’s a moderate breeze and cross-off wind, plus it’s a bit much for beginners. The afternoon gets messy. Thursday morning the 13th cleans up a bit with southerly 6 mph wind and 4 ft swell from the ESE (energy 270), but it’s still not firing.
Then we hit Thursday August 14th morning – a real surprise. Glassy again, with a tiny 2 ft swell but a very long period of 14 seconds from the SSE. Energy is moderate (246). That period is long enough that at a beach break it might get a bit straight, but in clean, dead-calm conditions, it’s another viable little window for a longboard or a foamie. After that, it’s back to cross-on and onshore winds for days.
The rest of August is stuck in the same rut: onshore breezes, small swell, poor quality. Even the bigger period swells that show up later, like the 18-second pulse on Friday August 21st afternoon (energy 325), are spoiled by a light cross-onshore wind and only 2 ft of height. There’s no standout in the second week at all – it’s just grim consistency with the wind ruining things.
Bottom line: The best on offer is Monday August 10th morning – get it while it’s glassy. The second pick is Friday August 14th morning for another clean, small-wave glass-off. Everything else is waiting for a better forecast.
Stay keen, watch the sky, and be ready to move when it cleans up.
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.
