The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what we’ve got on the cards for the next stretch.

Right off the bat, don’t get too excited just yet. The start of the period is a bit of a washout. We’re looking at a few days of pretty ordinary conditions before things start to clean up. The first real blip on the radar comes in on Sunday the 13th.

Sunday morning (13th Sept) is where it gets interesting at Cabedelo. The swell is a clean 3ft out of the NW (optimum direction for the spot), and with a cracking 13-second period on it, you’re getting proper groundswell energy. The wind is light offshore from the east at 5 km/h, so it’ll be clean. The combined energy is moderate (393), so it’s not a full-on beast, but it’s a very surfable, fun-sized wave. This is a beginner-friendly break, so that size is perfect. It stays pretty consistent here, and while crowds can pop up sometimes, the quality on offer early Sunday makes it worth the paddle out.

There is a bit of a lull through the middle of the week, with smaller, less organised swell and onshore chop spoiling the party. The following Monday morning (14th Sept) is decent again—4ft NW swell with a glassy, offshore breeze—but it’s not the standout.

Now, hold on to your board shorts for the second week. Things get a bit more serious. The standout window is hands-down the morning of Tuesday the 22nd of September. The wind is dead calm, glassy as can be, with a clean 4ft NW groundswell rolling in at 11 seconds. The combined energy is substantial (747), and it's pumping into Cabedelo with that optimum NW direction. This is gonna be one of those magic mornings where the lineup is clean and the waves have proper push. It’s not too big for the beginners, but there’s enough oomph for everyone to have a blast. Crowds are a possibility, but for waves this good, it’s worth the company.

Right on its heels, Wednesday morning (23rd Sept) is also a gem. Slightly bigger at 6ft from the NNW, glassy conditions, and a combined energy of 805. This is stepping into more intermediate territory but still a great, powerful wave. Again, look for that clean morning window before the afternoon seabreezes mess it up.

And for the experienced crew, keep an eye on Thursday the 24th of September. The morning session sees a serious 4ft WNW groundswell but with a very long 16-second period. That kind of period creates super clean, powerful lines that will reel off perfectly at this beach/pier setup. The combined energy is strong (1242), and with glassy conditions, it’s an excellent call for those who know what they’re doing. That Friday the 25th is also firing, but by then, you’re looking at the very end of the forecast.

So, to wrap it up: the first week has a nice clean window on Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th, but the real glory days are the 22nd and 23rd of September. Get on it.

Rusty.
