The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
First up, we’ve got Tiririca. This spot is a beginner-friendly beach break, and it’s the only name on the board for the whole 16-day window. The water is sitting at 79°, which is about normal for this time of year. The real story here is that we’re looking at a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions. The first few days offer a couple of fleeting windows, but it’s not all good news.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Tuesday, 18 August. The afternoon brings a 5ft swell from the ESE with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (325). The wind is a cross-shore from the SE at 9 mph, so it’s a bit textured. It’s a marginal call, but it’s the first option.
Wednesday, 19 August is your best bet for the whole run. The morning is looking glassy with a light rain, wind from the south at just 3 mph. That’s glassy conditions, and that’s a major positive. You’ve got a 6ft ESE swell, still on that short period, but with clean conditions it’s a solid option. The energy is moderate (335). This is the standout session. The afternoon gets choppy again, so get it while you can.
Thursday, 20 August morning sees the swell drop to 4ft from the east, with a light cross-shore from the SSE. It’s marginal, but if you’re desperate it’s surfable. The afternoon goes onshore and poor.
From Friday, 21 August all the way through to the end of the first week, the surf is a write-off. The swell stays small, under 3ft, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, creating poor conditions. It’s a real flat spell.
The second week doesn’t offer much hope either. From Monday, 24 August to Saturday, 29 August, the swell is weak and the wind is nearly always onshore. There’s a brief pulse on Thursday, 27 August from the SSE with a very long period of 18 seconds, and strong energy (381), but the wind is onshore from the NE, so it’s all blown out. That long period won’t do much for a beach break like this anyway.
Sunday, 30 August sees a bump to 5ft from the ENE, but again, it’s onshore wind and the period is short (7 seconds). The energy is moderate (253), but the quality is poor.
Monday, 31 August and into September is more of the same: onshore winds, short period, and poor surf. The very last session on Wednesday, 2 September shows a 5ft ENE swell with moderate energy (315), but the cross-onshore wind and short period keep it ugly.
That’s it. One real standout on the 19th, and a whole lot of waiting. The 16-day window is a tough one for Tiririca, with long gaps of flat, poor conditions.
Rusty out.

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.
