Alright mates, I'll be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a proper surf. The finder is flashing a whole lot of zeros, and that's a tough pill to swallow. We've got a long stretch of no good waves ahead. Starting from now, it's pretty much flat with only a few tiny, weak pulses that won't do anything for you.
The first real sign of life doesn't show up until Monday the 13th of July. Even then, it's only a small 3ft swell from the NNE with a short period of 5 seconds, and a combined energy of just 40, which is weak. Conditions look glassy in the morning though, so if you’re desperate for a paddle, get out early.
The only day that even raises an eyebrow is Saturday the 18th of July. We get a jump up to a 5ft swell from the East, with a 6-second period. The combined energy hits a moderate 160, so there's a bit more juice in the water. The catch? It's a cross-shore wind in the morning, turning into a cross-onshore and choppy in the afternoon. It's not ideal, but it's the biggest swell we're gonna see. For a beach and point setup like Itapema - Norte in Santa Catarina, the wind will mess with it a bit. This one is really only for the dedicated locals who know the banks, and even then, it's a struggle. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year.
Honestly, for the rest of the period, it's flat, small, or blown out. There's a couple of glassy mornings on the 16th and 19th of July, but with next to no swell, it's just a nice place to sit and watch the horizon. This is a real blank run, folks. Keep your boards in the car, but don't hold your breath.
