The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've been staring at the charts for your local stretch. It's been a bit of a slow start, but there's a glimmer of hope on the horizon if you're patient.
The first week is pretty ordinary. From Thursday, 30 July, through to Wednesday, 5 August, the swell is small and the wind is mostly messy. We're seeing tiny waves, mostly around 1 ft to 2 ft, with a weak combined energy (44 to 46). The periods are short, around 6 to 7 seconds, so it's just weak windswell. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, making it choppy and uninviting. There's a slight improvement on Saturday morning, 1 August, with a little more size at 4 ft and a period of 7 seconds, and the wind is cross-offshore, which cleans things up a bit, but the energy is still moderate (169) and the surf is only "very ordinary." Sunday morning, 2 August, is glassy with 4 ft waves, but again, it's nothing to write home about.
The real standout arrives on Tuesday morning, 4 August. This is the best of the whole outlook. The swell jumps to 5 ft from the east, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is strong at 407. The wind is glassy, coming from the south at just 3 mph, so it's going to be clean. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no wetsuit surprises. This is a solid, fun-sized east swell with clean conditions. The wave comment says "expect good surf conditions," and I agree. It won't be huge, but it'll be a proper session. Crowds are possible at Tiririca, so get in early.
After that, it tails off again. Wednesday and Thursday, 5 and 6 August, see the swell drop back to 4 ft to 3 ft, with the energy fading (290 to 177) and the wind turning onshore again. The second week, from 7 August onward, is flat and forgettable. The swell is tiny, mostly 2 ft to 3 ft, with weak energy and poor conditions. The only thing to note is a very long-period groundswell from the SSE on Thursday, 13 August, with a period of 16 seconds and strong energy (391), but the swell height is only 2 ft, so it's a tease. Then on Friday, 14 August, the swell jumps to 8 ft from the SSE with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy is very strong (841), but the wind is cross-on and the comment says "marginal." That's a big, messy wave for experts only, and the short period means it'll be a crumbly wall.
So, bottom line: if you want a wave, Tuesday morning, 4 August, is your shot. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
