The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here with a look at Velzyland (Brazil), and I gotta say, the next 16 days are looking pretty flat and wind-wrecked. There's a little nugget of hope early on, but after that, it's a long stretch of nothing. The water is sitting at 71°, which is a couple degrees cooler than usual for this time of year—nothing crazy, but you'll notice it.
The main problem is the wind. We get a few clean morning windows, like on Monday the 24th with a light cross-off breeze and a 1ft SSE swell. It's surfable, but it's just weak—energy is low (65) and it's not worth getting wet for. The one standout is Tuesday the 25th. That morning, it goes dead calm—zero wind, glassy conditions. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the SSE with a 14-second period, giving it some real groundswell shape and moderate energy (291). For a reef break like this, that's a solid little session with clean, lined-up waves if you're in the water early.
From Wednesday the 26th morning, with a clean 3ft wave and a cross-off breeze, the energy starts to fade. Thursday the 27th morning pushes 4ft with a 16-second period and strong energy (858), and it's clean with a cross-off wind, but it's a one-off. After that, it's a long, bleak gap. The wind turns onshore or cross-shore and howls, and the swell drops to almost nothing—by the weekend and into early September, we're looking at combined energy in the single digits.
There's a tiny flicker on September 4th. Friday the 4th morning shows a 3ft S swell with a short 8-second period, but it's crossed up with onshore wind. The afternoon gets choppy and lumpy. Not worth it. After that, it's more of the same: small, weak surf and bad wind straight through to September 8th. There's no consistency, and a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area when the trades are misbehaving. If you're really itching for a wave, that Tuesday the 25th glass-off is your only real chance.
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.
