The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.5 ft

- Highest expectedHighest6.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 4: 3.7 ft with a period of 6 s, from the east-southeast (slight).

Surf in Praia do Pina today
Surf today
Poor- 1.6–2.5 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.1 ft swell at 7 s from the south-southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (3 mph): glassy water
- Falling tide (low tide at 12:23 pm)
- Light: First light 4:30 am · sunrise 4:52 am · sunset 5:15 pm · last light 5:36 pm
- Tide: high 6:03 am (6.3 ft), low 12:23 pm (0.2 ft) and high 6:39 pm (5.8 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 83.3 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 41 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 5:00 am to 8:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 9:00 am to 11:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in Praia do Pina today
Diving and snorkeling today

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:10 am to 1:40 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:10 am to 6:50 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,718 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:51–2:51 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:23–3:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:19–8:19 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:28–9:28 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.55 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
