About Praia do Morro

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

The spot faces SE (136°), so it takes swell from the SE. The wind blows offshore from the NW (316°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.1 km out (1 in 109). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 26°C in July, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually March and April, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Sao Miguel Dos Milagres, 9.9 km away (51 min by car).

Water about 27°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
