The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this 16-day stretch for Titanzinho is a tough one to call. There’s swell on the way, but it’s coming from the east, which is pretty much the wrong direction for this reef. This isn’t a time for high hopes; it’s a time for low expectations and maybe a different hobby.
We start now, and we’re looking at a blank run. From the 15th all the way through the 30th, there isn't a single period that rates as a good surf option. That’s a full two weeks with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is just not working with the break.
Here’s the picture. The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about average for this time of year. Nothing crazy there.
Swell sizes are around the 4ft to 6ft mark, but the period is short—mostly 6 to 7 seconds. That means it’s all windswell, lacking any real push or shape. The energy is weak to moderate at best. On the 15th morning, the combined energy is only 225, and it stays in that low-to-mid range for most of the period. It peaks a bit on the 17th morning at 351, and again on the 25th morning at 340, but even those are just moderate.
Now, the wind. It’s been a constant problem. We’ve got fresh easterly and southeasterly breezes, which are cross or cross-offshore at best. But most of the time, it’s just a messy cross-shore that’s chopping up the surface. Even when it’s clean, the short period and wrong direction kill it. The wave comments just keep saying "poor surf conditions" and the scores are all zeros. It's heartbreaking, really.
What we’re left with is a reef break that’s exposed, but the swell is coming from the east, and it needs it from the north. So, it's all off. The waves that do show are going to be soft, weak, and just not worth the paddle.
Honestly, for the next couple of weeks, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The strong cross-shore winds and small, bumpy waves are no good for us.
Hang in there. Forecasts change, but for now, don't get your hopes up. Stay patient.
Rusty.

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 Titanzinho 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.
