Alright, Rusty here, checking the waves at Balneario Novo Quintao for you.
First thing, the water is sitting at 58.1°, which is 4.3° colder than normal for this time of year. That’s a serious cold snap, so you’ll want a thick suit.
The next few days are a mixed bag. The real standout is Saturday, July 4th in the morning. You’ve got a solid 8.2ft swell out of the SSW, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is a massive 2006, so there’s a ton of power in the water. The wind is a gentle offshore breeze from the west, making for clean, lined-up waves. This is for experienced surfers only; it’s going to be too big and powerful for beginners.
Saturday afternoon the swell drops to 5.9ft and shifts more SSE, and the wind goes cross-offshore from the southwest. Still clean, but not the same quality as the morning.
Then from Sunday the 5th, things go quiet with onshore winds and small, weak swell. There’s a few days of nothing much. The next real highlight is Saturday, July 11th in the afternoon. The wind goes glassy, with a 4.3ft ESE swell, period of 11 seconds. The energy is moderate (393), but that glassy surface will be a treat. It’ll be clean, with longer waits between sets.
Sunday, July 12th afternoon is another big one. The wind goes offshore from the west, moderate but clean. The swell holds at 4.3ft ESE, period of 12 seconds, and the energy jumps to 1217. That’s strong stuff, and the offshore wind should groom it nicely for those with some experience.
Looking further out, Tuesday, July 14th is looking real good. Both the morning and afternoon have a gentle offshore breeze, a consistent 5.2ft to 6.2ft SE swell with an 11-second period. The combined energy is solid (797 to 661). Clean, long-period groundswell.
And into the third week, Thursday, July 16th morning is a promising long-range call. Glassy conditions, a solid 5.2ft SE swell with a very long 13-second period, and a massive energy of 933. Sets will be big and powerful with long gaps. Worth watching as we get closer.
Stay warm out there.
