Alright, let’s get into it. I’m lookin’ at Titanzinho, a reef break that’s usually a good bet, but this 16-day window is a real grind. The water’s about what you’d expect for this time of year, nothin’ strange there.
The first week and a half is a write-off. We’re stuck with a constant cross to cross-off breeze from the east and southeast, and the swell is mostly short-period, wind-driven junk. The waves are tiny, the energy is low (combined energy values are mostly in the double digits and low triple digits, like 240 to 67), and the reports are all “poor surf conditions.” From the 12th through the 19th, it’s a flat spell. Don’t even bother.
The first real chance comes on Monday morning, 20 July. We’ve got a pulse of 5ft swell from the east, with a period of 7 seconds. The energy jumps to 237, which is moderate, and the wind is cross-offshore from the southeast. That’ll clean it up. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best we’ve seen. The afternoon gets a bit more cross-shore, so hit it early.
The pattern holds for the next couple days. Tuesday the 21st and Wednesday the 22nd keep that 5ft to 5ft east swell rollin’, with the wind stayin’ cross-off or cross. The energy hangs in the 200s (203, 246). It’s not glassy, but it’s surfable.
The standout is Wednesday morning, 22 July. That’s the peak. You’ve got 5ft from the east, 7-second period, and a clean cross-off breeze from the southeast. The combined energy hits 246, the highest of the whole outlook. That’s a solid, punchy wave for a reef. Get on it.
After that, it slowly fades back into the 4ft to 5ft range with the same messy wind. The 24th and 27th have some clean morning windows, but nothin’ that’s gonna blow your hair back.
So, bottom line: a long dry stretch, a few days of okay surf from the 20th to the 22nd, with the 22nd being the one to circle. Keep your expectations in check, and you might snag a few.

Information about the Titanzinho Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Titanzinho provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Titanzinho can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Titanzinho 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 (Titanzinho) 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 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.
Titanzinho is 13 km (8 miles) from Fortaleza. If you plan a holiday in Ceará, look for hotels and other accommodation in Fortaleza. Fortaleza has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
