The Lowdown

Right, gather ‘round, crew. Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Velzyland (Brazil) over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with ya – it’s a bit of a slow burn, but there’s a flicker of life if you’re patient.

We kick off with a few small, short-period lumps from the east, but the wind is a real mongrel. Tuesday the 18th morning has a clean 3ft wave from the east with a cross-off breeze, but the energy is weak (143). That’s about as good as it gets for the first week. The rest of the week is a write-off: the wind swings onshore or cross, turning the little 3ft to 4ft waves into a choppy mess. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothin’ to write home about.

Now, there’s a big gap of nothing. From Friday the 21st until Monday the 24th, the swell drops to ankle-snappers and the wind is either howling or wrong. The combined energy figures are in the single digits or just under a hundred – a proper dead zone. You’ll be better off waxing your longboard and waiting.

Then, a glimmer. Tuesday morning the 25th sees a pulse of long-period groundswell from the SSE, 3ft, but with a 14-second period and a cross-off breeze on the morning. The energy jumps to 322 (moderate) – a bit of life in the ocean. Wednesday morning the 26th is the standout: 2ft from the SSE, a 13-second period, and a clean cross-off breeze from the north. The energy is 253 (moderate) and the conditions are clean. It’s not a big day, but it’s the best of the run. These longer period swells will be better at the point or reef, as they can straighten out at a beach break. Keep that in mind.

After that, the wind blows up again from Thursday afternoon right through to the end of the month. The swell stays small and the wind is from the north or northeast, often cross or cross-off, but the speeds are high – 18 to 22 mph – making it lumpy and uninviting. The first of September is a total bust with south wind and tiny waves.

So, the pick of the fortnight is Wednesday morning, August 26th. If you can get out then, you’ll find clean, glassy lines at Velzyland. It’s not a bomb, but it’s the only real window of quality. The rest of the time, you’re better off finding a different hobby.

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.
