The Lowdown

Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s brewing for the waves around Aracaju.

To be straight with you, the next 16 days look like a total write-off. There is no decent surf to get excited about. The first session showing up is on Wednesday, July 29th, but it’s a dud: a weak 0.7m swell from the SE with a period of just 5 seconds, onshore wind at 9 mph from the SE, and wave energy at only 66. They’ve marked it “poor surf conditions” and that’s the story for the whole run.

Winds are stuck blowing from the SE, ESE, or E, mostly onshore or cross-onshore at 9 to 15 mph. Swell heights creep up to about 5ft on Monday the 3rd of August and again on Wednesday the 5th, but the period stays short at 8 seconds and energy hits 241 and 308 – still just moderate and rough. Sunday the 9th of August afternoon sees a 2ft S swell with a long period of 12 seconds and energy of 313, but with cross-onshore wind at 12 mph, it’s still poor. That long period would be better somewhere like a point or reef, but here it’s a beach break so it’ll just close out.

Aracaju is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot, ideal with S swell, but we’re mostly getting SE and ESE swells, which don’t match up. Water temp is about 79°F, which is pretty average for this time of year. Crowds can show up sometimes, but honestly, there’s no reason to. With the constant onshore wind and small, weak swell, this really looks more like a kite-surfing spot than a paddling spot right now.

No standout days at all – the whole 16-day forecast is a blank run with nothing rated above 0 out of 10. It happens here sometimes. Keep the wax in the bag, and let’s see if the forecasts change.

Catch you next time.

Rusty.

Information about the Aracaju Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Aracaju provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Aracaju can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Aracaju surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Aracaju) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Aracaju may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
