Buritaca surf guide

Buritaca is a surf spot located further east, nestled in a scenic, natural setting. It features two right pointbreaks that catch the waves coming in from the northeast. The atmosphere here is laid-back and welcoming for surfers looking to enjoy some time on the water. While it may not be the most famous spot on the coast, it offers a unique experience for those willing to explore.

The surf at Buritaca can handle swell sizes starting from 2 ft (about 0.6 m) and goes up from there. With optimal swell direction coming from the northeast, surfers can expect consistent action, particularly with swells from the north and northeast. The waves break over both boulders and sand, and for those looking for a fun ride, the rivermouth waves deliver an exciting challenge. The preferred wind direction is from the south, and the tide can be low, mid, or high, making it a flexible spot for various surfing conditions. This spot is best suited for intermediate surfers, who will find it manageable yet stimulating.

In addition to the surf, Buritaca is home to plenty of marine life, including lots of turtles, which adds to the natural beauty of the area. So, while you're out riding the waves, keep an eye out for these gentle creatures in the water.

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
