The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
First off, I’ve gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for Tiririca. The finder is telling me there’s no good surf on the cards for the entire 16-day run. That’s a long, quiet stretch, and for this area, it’s not that unusual to have a blank spell like this.
We’ve got small, weak swell the whole time. The combined wave energy is mostly sitting in the 100 to 200 range (moderate), with a couple of pulses pushing into the 200s and even a 355 on the 21st of September (Monday morning), but the wind is the killer. It’s almost always onshore or cross-onshore from the east or northeast. The break is exposed, so it’s getting hit by that chop. The swell heights stay around 2 ft to 5 ft, and the period is short, mostly 6 to 8 seconds – that’s just wind chop, not proper groundswell.
The best of a bad bunch looks like Saturday morning, the 12th of September. We’ve got a light northwest breeze at 3 mph, making for a cross-shore wind. The swell is 4 ft from the east at 8 seconds, with energy at 231 (moderate). The description says “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions,” which is the best we see all forecast. It’s a beginner-friendly break with consistent waves, but it’s a far cry from good. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
There’s another marginal call on Monday morning, the 14th of September, with 4 ft from the northeast at a very short 6 seconds, and onshore wind. Not worth getting excited about. The rest of the fortnight is just “poor surf conditions” – onshore winds, small chop, and a score of 0 every time.
For a beginner break, the swell never gets above 5 ft, so it’s never too big for a learner, but the wind is just so bad. It’s going to be messy. Honestly, if you’re a kiter, this onshore wind and small chop might look fun, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go. We’ll have to wait for a pattern 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.
