The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I'm looking at the next 16 days here at Tiririca. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you—it's a tough stretch.
There's nothing on the cards for the rest of August or the first week of September that I'd recommend paddling out for. The conditions are just persistently poor, with onshore winds and choppy surf. You'll see a bit of swell around, but it's not worth getting wet for. The water temp is sitting at a pretty normal 78°, so that's not the issue—it's the wind and the quality.
We do get a bit of a pulse around Monday the 8th and into Tuesday the 9th of September. The swell picks up from the ESE with a period stretching to 10–11 seconds, which is a positive sign for better shaped waves. The energy is moderate (204–310), but the wind keeps it messy with a cross-onshore, keeping the score at zero. It's a frustrating pattern.
The one that has my eye is Thursday the 10th of September. The swell jumps to 6 ft from the NE with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to a moderate 423. The wind is still cross-onshore, so it's going to be a bit of a battle, but that's the day with the most potential. If you're an expert and don't mind a bit of chop, that's your window. For everyone else, it's a kite-surfing kind of setup.
So, overall, a long stretch of poor to marginal conditions. The best of a bad bunch is Thursday the 10th, but keep your expectations in check.
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.
