About Itaguaré

Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.

The spot faces SE (141°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (321°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 2–9 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 100 m out (1 in 10). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hollow. The sea is about 21°C in July, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 28°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Bertioga. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.

Water about 23°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
