The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’re looking at a bit of a dry spell for Velzyland (Brazil) to kick things off. The water temp is sitting right around 73°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first few days are a tough watch. Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th are mostly a write-off with small, weak swell and poor conditions. The energy is just not there, with a combined swell energy of only 195 on Thursday morning, dropping to a paltry 32 by Saturday afternoon. We’ve got a long stretch of poor to marginal surf from the 3rd through to the morning of the 11th. There’s a glimmer of hope on the 7th with a bit of size, but the wind is messy and the period is short, so it’s not going to be any fun.
The real standout comes on the morning of Friday the 11th of September. We’ve got a clean, 4ft swell from the east, with a period of 8 seconds, and a nice cross-off wind from the north at 15 km/h. The combined energy is a moderate 209, and the conditions are described as clean. That’s your best bet for a proper session in the near term. It’s a reef break here, so east is a decent direction, and the cross-off wind will keep the faces tidy. The crowds can be a thing sometimes, but on a Friday morning you might get lucky.
The second week is a mixed bag and a lot less certain. The 16th of September morning has some potential with clean conditions and a 3ft east-southeast swell, but the period is short. The session that has my attention is the morning of the 18th of September. That’s a Friday, and we’re looking at a very long period groundswell coming in from the south-southeast at 18 seconds. The swell is small, only 2ft, but the combined energy is a solid 288, and the wind is a light offshore from the southwest. That’s a recipe for some beautifully shaped, clean lines on the reef. Just keep in mind that long period swells like this can be a bit tricky and tend to be more organized at a reef point like this. It’s a bit far out, so treat it as a promising hope rather than a guarantee.
Overall, we’ve got a long gap of poor surf from the 3rd to the 10th, then a couple of brief windows of clean, surfable waves. The 11th is the clear winner for the first week, and the 18th is the one to watch for the long-range.
Rusty.

Information about the Velzyland Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Velzyland provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Velzyland can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Velzyland 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 (Velzyland) 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 Velzyland 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.
