Alright, let’s put this in feet and miles per hour. Rusty here.

Balneario Novo Quintao has been flat and frustrating for days. Sunday the 12th kicks off with nothing worth talking about – light rain, fresh cross-off wind, and the swell is weak, with about 3ft from the ESE and a short period. Wave energy is moderate (579), but it’s not got the power. That pattern holds through Sunday afternoon. Monday the 13th morning shows a glimmer: 4ft from the SE with an 11-second period, 500 wave energy, and a gentle cross-off breeze. It’s clean, but it’s not a standout. The rest of that week is plagued by cross-onshore winds and choppy junk, so don’t expect much.

From Tuesday the 14th through to Saturday the 25th, it’s a long stretch of poor to marginal conditions. A few mornings like Friday the 17th have a light cross-off and 5ft from the ENE, but it’s nothing special. Mostly poor.

Then Sunday the 26th finally delivers. Sunday morning we get a 8ft SE swell, 7-second period, with strong wave energy (1061). The wind goes glassy – calm from the west – and it’s clean. That’s an excellent wave for experienced surfers, too big for beginners. The swell is from the SSE, right in the sweet spot for this break. Sunday afternoon stays clean with a light offshore and the same 8ft – that’s your best session.

Monday the 27th shows a big 10ft SE swell with very strong energy (1523), but the wind picks up to a moderate cross-off, so only experts should consider it.

Water temp is average for the season.

If you’re not expert, stay out of the big stuff. The main event is Sunday the 26th – both sessions are the real deal.

Rusty.
