About Patiero

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

The spot faces E (95°), so it takes swell from the E. The wind blows offshore from the W (275°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up, because of a steep sea floor. It works in 3–13 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 50 m out (1 in 2). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would break hard and thick, like a slab. The sea is about 22°C in July, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 27°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually March, April and July, with about 2 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Ubatuba, 6.8 km away (about 15 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 4 surf spots.

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).
