The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Tiririca. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, fairly consistent, and open to the east for swell. The water’s sitting at a pretty standard 79°, pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a tough watch. There’s a lot of onshore wind and messy cross-shore stuff messing with what swell is around. From the 29th of August right through to the 3rd of September, it’s pretty much all poor surf conditions. A few small windows pop up but the quality just isn't there.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Friday the 4th of September, in the morning. We get a glassy, clean setup with some east swell around 4ft coming in at a 9-second period – that’s a nice little groundswell push. The combined swell energy is moderate (262), and with glassy conditions it’ll be the cleanest surf in the whole run. A small window for sure, but it's the standout.
After that, it drops right back off. We get a lot more onshore wind and small, weak swell. The 7th of September Monday morning is glassy again but the swell is tiny and short-period from the ENE, just 4ft on a 6-second period – it’s surfable but very ordinary.
The next bump of interest shows up on the 8th of September (Tuesday morning) into the 9th, with a more southerly source. Swell jumps up to 5ft on Tuesday morning, then 7ft on Wednesday morning. That's getting solid. Periods are short though, around 7 or 8 seconds. The combined energy gets strong (up to 533 for Wednesday morning) but the cross-off wind (S/SSE) cleans it up surprisingly well, especially Tuesday morning and Wednesday morning. That said, at 7ft, it’s really for the more experienced crew. The short period and cross-shore wind on Wednesday afternoon will chop it up fast, so hit the mornings.
The 12th and 13th of September offer some hope again with clean or glassy mornings but the swell is small and fading, nothing to get too excited about.
Overall, if you’re looking for the one moment to paddle out, it’s that Friday 4th of September morning. Clean, glassy, small but fun. The only other real option for those with a bit more skill is the Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th early mornings, but watch out, it’s solid and short 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.
