The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s cookin’.
So, straight up, the outlook for the 16 days ahead is pretty grim, I won’t lie to ya. There are no good surf options on the table at all within that window. The whole stretch is a blank run, but that’s not entirely unusual for this area. For all you dedicated crew, just know the pattern we’re seeing is one of persistent cross and cross-off winds, mainly from the SE and E, which is a tough look for Titanzinho.
The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about normal for the time of year, so no surprises there. The swell energy is there in the moderate range, with values hovering between 104 and 366. On the 13th, for instance, you’ve got 366 of combined energy coming in from the east, with a 6ft swell, but the period’s a short 8 seconds — that’s windswell, not groundswell — and the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-off. It’s clean but weak and won’t hold any shape for long.
Throughout the first week, from Thursday 13 August right through to Wednesday 26 August, it’s the same sad story: east-southeast swells between 4ft and 6ft, periods mostly between 6 and 8 seconds, and winds that are either cross or cross-off. The morning windows are clean, but the afternoon turns to lumpy cross-shore chop. Even the surf is marked as “poor surf conditions” every single session, with a score of zero.
There’s a tiny flicker of hope on the morning of Wednesday 26 August — it gets a “marginal” call with a score of 1 out of 10. Same cross-off wind, 5ft swell from the ENE at a short 7 seconds, and the wave energy is 233. But honestly, it’s still not worth paddling out for.
After that, from Thursday 27 August right through to Friday 28 August, it’s back to poor surf and fresh cross-shore winds that make it look more like a kite-surfing setup than anything you’d want to paddle into. The swell drops off to 4ft with very weak energy (104 to 156), so even the wind junkies might find it underwhelming.
Plain and simple — leave the boards in the car and wait for a better forecast. Things can change, but right now, there’s nothing for a surfer here.

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.
