Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet.
Right now, we’ve got some waves, but they’re not in the best shape. Saturday afternoon there’s a 7ft south swell with moderate energy, but the cross-offshore wind from the WSW at 12 mph keeps it clean enough. The water temp is a cold 58°, way below normal for this time of year, so you’ll need the thick rubber.
Sunday morning drops to 6ft from the SSE, but a light cross-shore NE wind at 6 mph messes with the surface. The rest of the first week is pretty small, mostly under 4ft, with a lot of cross-onshore and onshore wind. The best early window is Tuesday morning, July 7th, with a clean 3ft ESE swell and offshore WNW wind at 12 mph, but it’s tiny.
The real standout is Thursday, July 16th. That morning gives us a clean 7ft south swell with moderate energy and a nice cross-offshore WSW breeze at 9 mph. This is the one – solid size, clean conditions, and the south swell has enough period to give the waves some real grunt. It’s getting into expert territory at that size, so it’s not for the faint-hearted.
Tramandai Pier (Platforma) is an exposed beach/pier setup, and it’s inconsistent, so it’s not a guarantee. Crowds are sometimes around. The water will still be cold, but no temp anomalies are flagged for that day.
After that, the swell hangs around under 6ft for the rest of the week, with mostly cross-offshore winds but lower energy. The Sunday morning, July 19th, is worth a look – 4ft south swell, glassy conditions with WNW wind at just 3 mph, making it perfect clean surf. But it’s not a big day.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a bit weak, but that Thursday, July 16th, is the one to aim for. Everything else is just filler.
Rusty.
