The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. It’s gonna be a tough wait for anything decent. The first week and a half is a real struggle with tiny, weak swell and a lot of poor conditions. We’ve got a solid run of days with no real surf to speak of, so don’t bother paddling out until the second weekend.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, there’s really only one standout that’s worth getting excited about. The rest is mostly ordinary, small, or blown out. The best bet arrives on the 22nd of August.
Let’s start with the early days. From Wednesday the 12th through to the 20th, it’s grim. The swell hovers around 3 ft to 5 ft, but the energy is weak to moderate (readings between 118 and 507). The wind is all over the place, and the morning of the 15th and the 16th have some clean windows, but the waves are just too small and messy to paddle for. The 17th and 18th see a bump in swell to 5 ft and 5 ft from the east, but with a short period of 7 seconds, it’s just fat, weak, and not worth the paddle. The 19th and 20th are even smaller.
The first real glimmer comes on Saturday the 22nd of August. The afternoon at Praia de Camburi has a nice 4 ft swell from the southeast, a period of 14 seconds, and a gentle cross-off breeze from the ESE. This is the standout. The combined energy is moderate (456), and you’ll get some clean, lined-up waves. The crowds are “sometimes” there, so don’t expect to have it to yourself, but the quality will be worth it. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so a steamer might be a bit much, but a spring suit will be fine.
The days after that, from the 23rd into the 27th, we’re back to tiny, weak swell (0.7 ft to 3 ft) with very low energy (8 to 259). The 27th has a little pulse of 2 ft from the SE with a 12-second period, but it’s just ordinary. Not worth wetting the suit.
So, to wrap it up: you’ve got a long, dry spell until the 22nd of August. That Saturday afternoon at Praia de Camburi is your best shot by a long shot. Get on it.
Rusty.

Information about the Praia de Camburi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Praia de Camburi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Praia de Camburi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Praia de Camburi 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 (Praia de Camburi) 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 Praia de Camburi 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.
