The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, lookin' at the charts for the next couple weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch for Tiririca. This spot is an exposed beginner-friendly beach break, best with an easterly swell, but we're looking at a whole lot of "maybe next time" in the data.
Right now, the water’s sitting at a normal 79° for this time of year, so that’s fine. But the problem is the wind and the swell energy. The whole first week is a write-off. We start off with a weak 3ft easterly swell on Sunday the 30th, but with a light onshore breeze and only 111 units of combined energy, it’s just not happening. Poor conditions. That flat, messy pattern sticks around all week. The swell ticks up a bit, hitting 5ft to 6ft by Tuesday and Wednesday, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy, with moderate energy readings around 400. That’s too big for a beginner break with that chop – it’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. Total blank.
We get a flicker of hope on Friday morning, the 4th of September. The wind swings to a light cross-offshore from the SSW, and the swell is a clean 4ft from the east with a 9-second period. The combined energy is 253 – nothing huge, but the conditions are described as clean. It’s a small window, but it’s the only real chance for a surf in this whole stretch. After that, it’s back to onshore junk and disappearing swell.
The pattern stays grim through the second week. The swell stays small, wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy readings are weak, mostly under 300. There’s a tease on the 11th of September – Friday morning – with glassy conditions and a 4ft easterly swell at 8 seconds. That’s a standout, but it’s a long way out and could change. The guidance flags it as good, so keep an eye on it. The rest of the second week is a slow grind with marginal conditions and a lot of "poor" flags.
So, bottom line: there’s a gap of nearly a week with no real surf. The best option is Friday morning, the 4th of September, at Tiririca itself – just a small, clean window. The 11th of September morning is promising but very far out. For everything else, save your energy.
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.
