The Lowdown

Alright folks, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the surf outlook for Praia de Camburi over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty bleak stretch overall. The next week and a half is mostly a write-off with very little decent surf on offer, and even when a bit of swell shows up, the conditions just aren’t cooperating.

The water temperature at Praia de Camburi is sitting around 73°F, which is just about normal for this time of year – nothing wild there.

The biggest gap is right at the start. There’s nothing worth talking about for the first several days. The swell is tiny, and the wind is often onshore or cross-off with too much speed. Even when the wind goes offshore, the waves are barely there.

Thursday the 27th of August is the first real glimmer. You’ll see a south-east swell around 4 ft, with a period of 14 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell coming through. The combined energy is moderate at 639, and the wind turns glassy in the morning, turning cross-off in the afternoon. That’s the cleanest day of the entire outlook. The swell direction from the south-east isn’t the optimum south for this sheltered spot, but with the size and the glassy conditions, it’s the best you’re going to get. Expect it to be a bit inconsistent, but when the sets come, they’ll have juice.

After that, it drops off again. Friday the 28th has some clean offshore winds but the swell drops to 3 ft and the energy is way down. The rest of the month is just small, weak, and mostly wind-affected. There’s a brief pulse on the 2nd of September with a small east swell and glassy conditions, but it’s only 3 ft and short period, so nothing to get excited about.

Then on the 3rd of September, there’s a bit more size – 5 ft from the south, but it’s short period (6 seconds) and the wind is cross-off, so the shape will be average. It’s more of a messy, lumpy wave than a clean one. The 4th of September has a cleaner south-east swell, 4 ft with a 10-second period, and glassy conditions in the morning – that’s your second-best option, but it’s still a long way out.

Honestly, if you’re keen, your best bet is to aim for Thursday the 27th of August. Get there early for the glassy conditions and a bit of south-east groundswell. Everything else is small, inconsistent, or blown out.

This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
